:shock: My wife and I have decided to replace the linoleum flooring in kitchen/back hallway of our 10 yr. old home. We've decided on solid hardwood flooring, possibly hickory.
The biggest question is this: On the low end of the price spectrum, we first visited Lumber Liquidators, whose dedicated line of solid wood flooring appears to be Bellawood. They do sell other lines, along with engineered wood and laminates, but Bellawood (at least in their samples), appears to be their most attractive.
Today, we visited another flooring store in our area (near Milwaukee, WI) and checked out their offerings. They offered a selection from many more brands than LL, everything seemed of high quality, but their floor and installation prices were quite a bit higher. For instance, the flooring store we visited today had prices that were roughly about 2 bucks more per sq. ft. on the flooring and a buck more on the installation than lumber Liquidators.
After doing a search on google for Bellawood and Lumber Liquidators (they appear to be closely tied), it seems that I've found many more negative reviews than positive. Complaints seem to center around very poor customer service from LL and some consistency problems on the Bellawood products. Many mention a high waste factor.
Is this just another case of you get what you pay for? We're leaning towards the independent flooring store, but perhaps there is some type of happy medium out there where we can get a decent product with a good install that won't break the bank. Any comments or suggestions appreciated.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
