Swiftlock Laminate Flooring available at Loews
Just installed this product for a client. What a nightmare it is to install. It appears to be compressed sawdust with a photo laminated on top of the plank.
“Place the tapping block against the grooved end and gently tap the block with a mallet until the tongue end seats inside the groove of the first plank in the row.”
Ha, if you attempt to do this the tongue breaks off and causes a bulge at the place where the two boards meet. We had to shave the tongue off each board and glue each joint.
This was the slowest, most painful flooring job I have ever done.

Was this a click lock type?
Curious, most seem to be that I find to install. And those require you to lift the pc. being installed-to slide it into the groove.
