Mohawk Laminate


Found a shop locally that is selling the seneca line for 99 cents a square foot. Probably gonna buy some this week. It seems like descent stuff, just wondering if anyone has used it or would recomend against it.

I put alot of it in. Its very brittle during installation. Be sure to get the matching putty and sealant..Scratches easy to so be careful!

Re: Mohawk Laminate


I replace a lot of it.
Everything that Mike said and they seem to discontinue colors/patterns more often than most which can make repairs difficult or impossible. I find that Mohawk also tends to eat saw blades at twice the speed of other flooring, on average I get about 600 sq.ft. to a blade.

Re: Mohawk Laminate


Anybody tried the Magnum laminate cutter? I would like to find someone that has before I shell out the 700 bucks.
