Engineered wood floor boards

last year

Hi,

What do you think of these wood floor boards on the photo (European Oak - 3/4" x 8.67" x up to 7')?

- some boards have a lot of dark spots

- on some board the tone is off (same tone than the stain on the first or last image).

- Some boards don't lay flat. the long ones 7' raise at the center, the shorter ones at both ends.

how much is too much and need to be returned?

Thank you

Too gray on my monitor. This looks more like domestic white oak with a grey fill to hide the open grain. I wouldn't choose this product with the many better options available.

All normal charcters of wood. You are going to see character. If, you would like to avoid it and have a more uniform look, use LVP or laminate.

Those are all normal in wood. I'd set aside the board in the first picture that looks like it has a watermark and use in a closet, under a bed, or for a cut.
