HI,


I was looking for unfinished red-oak select or better hardwood floors
in a MA home depot store.


I bag on the BORGs all the time here, I'm no fan.

However! I recently purchased a whole bunch of red oak 2 1/4"
flooring in CT, and it's NOFMA stamped, and of _SUPERB_ quality, for
$2.99 sq/ft. The thickness is extraordinarily consistent as well.

Out of the first 9 19.5 sq/ft bundles, I tossed ONE 2 foot board,
simply because it's kind of ugly. Not really ugly, just a little,
when compared to the rest. The rest are straight, clear,
good-looking, and in perfect condition. About 30% of it is
quartersawn.

HD beat Limber Liquidators top grade price by $.45 a foot, and LL's
stuff in Hartford was not NOFMA graded.

I hate BORGs, but I give two thumbs up on this stuff.
