Engineered floors are more durable and can be installed by anyone. The installation is quick, easy and less messy. There are several criteria for choosing high quality engineered flooring and they regard the thickness of the layer which can vary from 1/8 inch to 3/16 inch, the number of layers, the way in which the strips overlap as you shouldn't see a noticeable variation or the finish, because the number of coats will be very important.
