Engineered flooring board has many important advantages.

• High level of resistance to external influences. Such a board practically does not dry out during operation; scratches, chips, gaps are almost not formed on its surface.
• Easy installation. Most often, such materials are fastened using special spike grooves, such a laying can be done independently without the help of professionals. In addition, the material can even be laid on a concrete surface without the need to pre-lay the plywood.
• Durability. An engineered board can serve for a long time. In this case, it can be sanded several times. But after each such procedure, the surface must be covered with a protective varnish.
• Variety of design options. In the production of such floor coverings, their surface can be additionally processed, this creates a toning effect, some models are brushed.

Among the main disadvantages of an engineered board is the high cost of the material. But at the same time, many note that the high price fully corresponds to the level of quality and durability.

On the surface of such a floorboard there should be no chips, scratches, cracks and other irregularities, even small defects can spoil the overall design.
