Flooring.wtf Editor
Reads spec sheets so you do not have to.
How this desk works
The editorial desk behind Flooring.wtf. We read the installation manuals, measure the wear layers, and translate the aisle talk into something you can use. No brands, no affiliate links, no imaginary statistics.
Every page is checked against the thing that actually decides the outcome: the installation manual, the product specification, or the building practice behind the claim. When a source cannot be found, the claim does not get published. When a product changes its specification, the page gets an updated date.
There are no sponsored posts here and no affiliate links. If that ever changes, it will be labeled at the top of the page rather than buried in a disclosure. Until then, the only thing this desk owes anyone is an accurate answer with the joke still attached.
Corrections go through the contact form. The myth pages live at the myth wall, the vocabulary at terms explained, and the comparisons at material matchup.
