Grandeur XXL Laminate Flooring

Long, wide boards are the point of the XXL Collection. Each plank measures 70″ by 9-2/3″ at 1/2″ thick, so a room shows fewer end joints and the floor reads more like wide-plank wood. That size looks best on open-concept main floors, in large living rooms and in basements with long sightlines.

Styles that list an abrasion rating are AC6, which stands up well to chairs, pets and daily foot traffic. Installation is approved on, above or below grade. A box covers 18.86 sq ft and weighs 40 lbs, and Grandeur Flooring backs the line with a 15-year residential and 10-year commercial limited warranty. Long planks are less forgiving of a wavy subfloor, so flatness is worth checking before the floor goes down.

Ten styles are available: Elgon, Denali, Mont Blanc, Kilimanjaro, King Peak, Logan, Aneto, Everest, Fuji and Cervino. 22FLOORING supplies and installs the XXL Collection across Toronto and the GTA, with laminate installation from $3.20 per square foot.
