I'm a guessin that you installed this product and are just asking if it "looks" like real wood to us and not asking us.."Is this wood?"
From the looks of it, it looks like a slab floor, but can't really tell.

Looks like that laminate from Armstrong that HD has on sale all the time.

The real question is...




Might want to put that out of sight next time. Big Brother might decide that toking is an act of terrorism or something.

You sure that's a pot bong and not a pepper mill or something else?

Pepper mills:

How much does that granite overhang?

You may want to put some brackets under it.

Are you serious? That looks to be a normal island, if not to short, of a overhang to me.. There looks to be about 30-36 of cabinet there, with 6-8 inches of overhang...

At a first glance I thought it was a bong, after seeing the close up I think it looks like a hand blown glass vase.....and a nice one at that. I also agree that the OP was really trying to see if we would believe that it was real wood flooring.
