We had our floor (from the early 1990s) completely sanded and oiled in November 2017. It looked great at first. In some rooms, we also had new parquet flooring (herringbone beech, oiled) installed, replacing tiles.
Now, the "old" parquet already has several dents. The new parquet also has various dents and holes.
It looks particularly bad in the kitchen area. I don’t recall dropping any cutlery or plates.
We have no children or pets. We don’t walk on the floor with shoes.
The dents follow a recurring pattern. Could it possibly be caused by the vacuum cleaner?

Beech is unfortunately also a relatively soft wood. Oak is significantly harderI don’t think that’s quite accurate. Beech is generally described as “very hard.” Its Brinell hardness value is almost as high as that of oak.

However, thanks to the OP @cmenschel, we will never find out if it was the vacuum cleaner. He took advantage of us without any thanks 😉
