Anyone installed Karastan Belleluxe Laminate?

3 years ago

I am looking at two of their colors--Vintage Tea Oak and Ginger Glow Oak, but this flooring is so new I cannot find any reviews of it. I know it is made by Mohawk with similar technology, but it does not have the Pet warranty that the Revwood has, which concerns me. If anyone has this, I would appreciate your thoughts on it! This is the one I am considering the most. (And please no comments on the cabinet color as we are happy with it and not selling lol).

    It is going everywhere in the house. I do not want LVP as my flooring person is telling me to stay away from it. They have lots of complaints about scratches, etc. He is recommending Revwood or Karastan laminate, so that is what I am looking at. He has been in the flooring business for a long time, so I do respect what he says. I have since counted out the above floor and the other one as he is telling me I need a warmer color, which I cannot find to go with the cabinets! I am very frustrated!

      I have no idea what a pet warranty is but as for the rest get the one that works best with the cabinets I see only one choice in the pic .Whay do you not do LVP instaed if pets are an issue IMO more logical for a kitchen install . Is this going everywhere in your house or just the kitchen ? I guess I need more info.

      Hi Jan...which one is in the center of your photo? The Tea Oak? I'm in the process of deciding between the belleluxe and revwood premier. Please post photo's if youve done the project! :)

      Did you install the Karastan Bellelux flooring? If so how is it. We are looking at it for our lake house w a lot of dogs being up there.

      I just installed the Belleux Lenon Wash Oak. couldnt be happier. looks and feels like wood. looked ar engineered hardwood and LVP. IMO this looks better than LVP and more durable.

      I have similar cabinets and looking at Vintage Tea Oak. Any pictures?

      I have Vintage Tea Oak in my house and i couldn’t be happier. Beautiful and Durable and easy to clean!!

      Do you have any photos? I still have not gotten a floor? We had a couple of unexpected deaths in the family that got me sidetracked for a long time, but now I am ready to attack my flooring issue again. I worry about the texture on the Tea Oak. Does it get dirt in it? Also, seems like even pulling a chair out, etc. would cause a scratch because of all that texture. The sample I had was beautiful, but I have 5 little boys in my house and need it to be durable! Thank you!

      I am also in the research phase. I have five dogs and kids so it needs to be tough. Have you found out mich aboit Bellelux? This is quite a research project!

    • last year

      I think Belleluxe is a really good product and I really wanted to use it but I couldn’t find a color that worked in the multiple areas of my house with different lighting etc. I am going with Watershed which is a Hallmark floors product— depending on where you live it may or may not be available as it is fairly new with more limited distribution. I feel like there are way more color options in LVP but all the local flooring stores steered me to laminate because of my dog!

      I'm considering BelleLux in Spiced Cedar Walnut...Does anyone have photos of it in a room? Their visualizer will not accept that color into their program I even emailed Karastan -

      I’m also looking for photos of Spiced Cedar Walnut.

      Isn't the color Spiced Cider?
