Quick step flooring is by far one of the most trouble free laminates to work with.
The ease at which the boards go together is amazing. The board is very forgiving. The end joint and the side joint can be tapped together laying flat with a tapping block. Quick steps locking system (Uniclic) is what makes this laminate the weekend warriors friend.
When the boards are locked together, the joints are smooth and flush.
The core is strong and hard to break, this assures that you will not see many damaged boards.
The machining is always very consistent.
The overall look of the finished floor is excellent, I always tell my customers that this flooring makes me look good.
