I know I’m gonna have to stop saying this but on this occasion I just can’t help. I thought I had found my favourite floor covering but I was wrong, Kahrs Oak Sienna 3-strip is absolutely magnificent.
Anyone who reads this blog regularly will know that this must be true – Kahrs oak flooring is engineered, whereas this series has previously focussed on solid wood floors.
That however, is not the only difference between Kahrs Oak Sienna and the other floors covered in this series; it has a completely different look to any of them – not least because it has a completely different look to most of the other floors on the market.
It is hard to put into words: rustic, with a kind of granular feel. It looks modern, but has has a depth of texture to it that any solid wood floor would be proud of. Oak Sienna is the perfect floor for a home, an office, a museum, an art gallery or an office. Don’t agree?

On top of that, a Kahrs oak floor is a floor for life. Kahrs engineered flooring is slightly more expensive than the lower priced brands, because it has a thicker wood layer, which means it can be sanded and refinished numerous times. This means that if it is looked after properly, to keep the need for resanding and refinishing as far apart as possible, the floor will last you a lifetime.

Hi, I have a question about another oak, white oak. We're trying to decide if we should go with hand scraped or sanded due to concerns about heel dents, etc. Solid HW, not engineered. It's a darker, "antiquish" stain but we don't know if we would like to make it even more antique/rustic looking with the hand scraped. We don't want to be overly stressed when we entertain is our primary issue.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Hi BP,
Woodfloorguru here. The answer to your question is:
Handscraped or sanded is a choice of look and feel only, it will not neccesarily affect the durability of the floor. Handscraped is simply a surface effect to add texture.
