Lumber Liquidators?
 
I'm just curious if some of you folks have purchased hardwood flooring from this company.

I know there are stores in the Wichita, Kansas City and Springfield areas.

Never heard of it.

Sorry.

they do a lot of donations for Habitat and Extreme Home Makeover, as well as other tv shows.

Excellent customer service with above average prices. I will use them if a customer really likes a product they carry (example, check out their Bellawood American Walnut, it is by far the most beautiful I have seen yet.)

PM me on what you are looking for. I might have a distributer that I use close to where you live.

They're not bad. They have a lot of loss-leaders to get you shopping but when you look at them in person they look awful. Then their high-end stuff is pretty pricey. But it's not bad.

I have a pallet of natural bamboo I'm trying to move. Any interest in a blonde floor?

What the hell is that? Construction lingo?

Basically Black Friday all of the time. They advertise $.79/ft reject laminate, or $.99/ft utility oak (with all kinds of milling problems.) to get your attention. Then you end up buying a decent product for much more than their loss leaders.

Loss leader=loss in profit/or an actual loss of money just to get a product moved or to get customer attention

Honestly, I work at the one in Wichita. I am in month 4 and I love the job. Very, very stress-free. However, since we do no local advertising our store in Wichita is fairly unknown. I just wanted to get some feedback from you guys. Notorious - nice choice. Brazilian Walnut is our hardest floor. Personally, I am a fan of Tobacco Road and Matterhorn Birch. Again, as you guys as possible consumers I just wanted to get our name out. Just a small, free plug. Any more complaints/comments?

Nice, Tobacco Road caught my attention when I ordered some Walnut last year. I was working with a gentleman with LL down in OKC, but since there is a LL in Wichita now........

Ceej 02-11-2009 12:53 PM

We get that a lot. And trust me guys - I am not intentionally spamming. I was just curious what you guys thought - barring you had been inside one of our stores. Unfortunately, with the massive amount of layoffs in Wichita most likely happening our future is really up in the air.
