I just started installing this in my home--the quality really leaves a lot to be desired--out of 15 boxes opened thus far, i will be returning 18 planks--mostly for corner damage or poor lamination (do not install a plank with damaged or "thin" backing on corner--it will stick up like a sore thumb, and irritate the hell out of you)--anyway, thought I'd share my experience with you in case you thought that paying more for a product insured a better product--no correlation for this piece of junk
