About the Product

The Laurel Creek series by Mohawk flooring is a great new addition to the Mohawk line of fine flooring products. This product has a lot of built in features you will not find in any other laminate flooring series. The Laurel Creek series by Mohawk at 9MM thick, is thicker than most all other laminate floors in it’s class. This extra thickness translates into a very stable product. Let’s go from top to bottom and explain this product in detail. First, Mohawk uses a top layer which has a random embossed texture. This gives the look and also the feel of a real wood floor. Second, their CrystalShield is a layer of aluminum-oxide which provides outstanding protection against wear and stains. Third is the design layer which is melamine resin-impregnated type. The next big feature of this product is the WaterGuard6 extra thick highly moisture resistant core. This specially designed core allows for no more than 6% water absorption. This low absorption helps prevent the product from swelling if moisture is present. Since the core is thicker than average, this helps provide the floor with added stability. One really unique feature is Mohawk’s DuraLoc Plus locking system. This is a locking no-glue system with an added bonus, a “pre-applied adhesive” system. You simply wet the tongue during the installation to activate the pre-applied adhesive for a “tight as glued” seal at the seams. Also, the MoistureBlock bottom layer helps prevent moisture from ever getting to the core, as well as adding even more stability to the product. The last and most interesting feature is the attached Sound Inhibitor backing. This attached cushion provides built-in sound reduction for a more natural sounding floor, and eliminates the need for a separately installed underlayment.

The Laurel Creek series represents some great innovations on the part of Mohawk. The randomly embossed (textured) surface gives a very authentic flare to the product. While this product has a lot of unique technical features, it looks really good too! Mohawk has introduced some really unique features with this product. The one’s that stick out in our minds are the “pre-applied adhesive” locking system, the fact that there is a sound-reducing backing attached to the floor, and the 9MM thickness for added stability. We’ve seen a lot of laminate floors but this one is certainly unique, and we feel it is definitely a great value. When shopping for flooring some consumers get hung up on price. While it is important to get a fair price, it is more important to get a product worth the money. This is especially true when you are expecting a flooring product to hold up for several years and be as maintenance free as possible. If you are a customer that understands value, and that value doesn’t mean simply the “lowest priced product”, then this may be a strong consideration. We give this product a high rating not only for all of the features, but also for the warranty and the company, Mohawk, that will stand behind it.

*FastFloors.com recommends verifying any warranty information with the manufacturer as the manufacturer is providing the warranty. While we will do everything we can to help with warranty related issues it is ultimately at the manufacturer's discretion.
