Help pick our wood floor

13 years ago

I know this isn't the flooring forum, but that forum seems more technical. I'm looking for taste and style advice :-)

We're narrowing down our choices of wood floor for the main part of our house (replacing carpet and a small amount of existing wood). We're basically down to two very similar options -- this general look seems to fit best with the rest of our house. Given that color reproduction on the web is questionable, and you can't see the context of the rest of our house, do you have any preference between these two?

I did have some assistance here, but he didn't turn out to be very helpful.

I like the Caribou the best. I do prefer dark wood and the grain is very interesting! However, I'd be happy with either one. Enjoy whichever you choose.

Another vote for the Caribou and for the same reasons.

Thanks all! It's funny, I posted this query a few different places, and I'm getting different answers in each! This is the only place that has been unanimous so far, but the Caribou is still ahead overall.

Hate to say it, but I prefer the saratoga! The grain is beautiful and the colour is nice. The caribou reminds me of the dark pine floor at my partner's parents house from the 70's.

Just my opinion.

I'll pick the kitty.

Really, I'd pick the Caribou because it is warmer.

OH NO!!! You've broken the unanimity!!! ;-)

I will note that while the colors are pretty accurate on my carefully calibrated monitor at home, they're definitely off on my screen at work. The variances between monitors may make this a bit of an exercise in futility.
