I was very hesitant ordering flooring that I could not see prior to purchase. However, I was amazed when the flooring was delivered. When they say long plank they are not kidding. I would say less than 5 percent was about three feet in length. 20 percent was between three and six feet. The remaining 75 percent was all 6-10 foot long. I am Very impressed with the millwork of the rift and quarter-sawn oak flooring. I purchased 1100 square feet figuring ten percent waste and to my surprise I had about 1 percent waste. Looks like the work bench in the garage is getting a hardwood top due to all I have left over! The company finishing the floor has been in business 30 years and the owner did not believe the price I paid for the flooring. I highly recommend this website and also the long plank rift and quartered white oak flooring.

We were nervous about ordering 1,100 square feet of white oak unfinished flooring because it was a large $ amount and consequential for us if it went wrong. The planks came by truck to our house strapped to a pallet. The planks were indeed a variety of lengths, with only a small proportion 2 feet. MANY planks were very long, 8 and 10 feet long, which makes our wood floor look very nice. We had two installers look at the quality before installation. Both spoke highly of the product after inspecting width and depth of tongue and groove, and straightness and thickness of the planks. We ended up hiring one of these two installers and he continued to praise the quality. He had no problems installing. Of course we had some bad boards. But we expected that as it is a natural product. We are very happy with what we got.

It's hard to write reviews because you don't know how real they are and the negative ones can cause some major second guessing--especially when ordering $5500 worth of wood flooring from an online picture! I can only share our experience--it was fantastic from start to finish!!! Cody Smith was our sales rep and was very helpful, the flooring arrived in a timely manner and looks great. We are extremely pleased and will have no hesitations ordering other material from Build Direct!

Received the euro grade hickory and out of 620 sf only two 24" boards are not usable. I will end up using them for staining. A great product and cannot wait until it has acclimated for the install.
