"Shaw flooring is a rip off"
My wife and I have Shaw laminate flooring and it's garbage. We had it professionally installed by a very reputable company about a year ago and it is already worn out. In many places, it is peeling and flaking apart. There are also areas of very visible discoloration. We contacted Shaw directly and they refuse to do anything about it even though we have had their own salespeople as well as another flooring installation company inspect our floor and tell us that the product is no good. Their customer service is crap and so is their product. Do not go with Shaw flooring. you will regret it. It bears to mention we have two kids and a dog and a "no shoes in the house" rule. We were told that there is no way the floor should be as bad as it is.

"Nothing but garbage..."
This floor is composed of cardboard and ground up wood. Lennar homes installs this garbage in their homes and claims it to be hardwood floors. We had to have a number of boards replaced due to cracking. When they starting pulling the floor up it all cracked into small pieces and that's where we saw the actual composition of the floors...

"DR Horton Home"
We purchased a DR Horton home about a year ago and we are still having issues with our flooring. Basically they have ripped up all the flooring to put down the same board. 1 day after the new boards were put down our floors started having the finish come off, they were splitting in half, sections were coming off and even parts of the floor started to deteriorate. I am meeting with a Shaw representative on Wednesday to see what is next.

"Poor Quality and Short Life"
Paid $13,600 for their supposed top end product with life time guarantee. Only my wife and I live in the house (no kids) - no unusual wear & tear or use. Nine years later several areas are worn down and unsightly. Had a supposed Shaw independent inspector come out to examine for warranty claim (named Raymond) and was denied. Inspector asked leading questions about use of cleaner on floor to develop "his story" on why wear was not a warranty issue. Will never buy Shaw again.

"We're all screwed!"
My engineered hardwood floor starting bubbling up on a couple edges less than a year after we had them installed in our new home. (Just 2 adults living here) Calls to Shaw for customer service got me nowhere! They told us to contact the place where we purchased the flooring. The builder had a flooring guy who sold us the flooring, and when I tried to contact him, I found out that he was in prison (drug charges) and have spent 4 more years unable to talk to him. Shaw does not want to honor their warranty, and they could care less! Now my floor is showing weak areas where the top layer is coming off. Do not purchase from Shaw!

"Worst floor ever"
We are facing the same issues as all the other remarks on the site. Within a month of moving into the house, the finish started coming off the floor, boards buckling, boards splintering at the ends, and there are only 2 of us living here. Floor is dangerous to walk on without shoes due to splinters in feet. Super unhappy with this disaster.

"Wasted a lot of $$$"
This flooring is the worst. Replaced our original 3/4" hardwood with this and totally regret it. Scratches everywhere and we are very careful, knowing it is 'engineered'. Installed about 6 months ago and now just wondering how long it will take until is gets so ugly that we need to replace it again. Will never use another Shaw product again, especially this junk. It looks good but don't waste your money, it does not wear well at all.

"Beyond angry"
Had a new home built by Pulte Homes in Myrtle Beach, in mid-2018. Standard flooring was Shaw engineered hardwood. Did not forsee any problems, as we had had engineered hardwood in a previous home. Big mistake! This is a shabby, substandard product. Touch-up painters ground paint into the grain of the floors everywhere, dust has collected in every grain in and joint. Anything that drips on this floor is instantly absorbed, and remains as a mark Permitted cleaning products do not clean (Bona, or Shaw spray cleaners) In addition, the finish layer is so shallow, that we have numerous chips and dings, even in areas that are not walked on. Wish I had researched this floor! Builder and manufacturer do not stand behind this product.
