Floating bamboo floor
Teragren Fine Bamboo Flooring has just introduced Portfolio, a brand-new line of prefinished floating floors that snap together without glue, nails, staples or any other fasteners (shown below).
The bamboo planks rest on a thin foam underlayment and aren't fastened down in any manner. That translates to fast, clean, no-fuss installation in hours, not days.
The Portfolio collection comes in 10 designer colors, and features planks measuring 1/2 inch thick x 5 inch wide x 72 1/2 inch long. However, what I found most interesting is that the flooring is milled from strand bamboo, not laminated bamboo strips.
The result is a fine-grain, rock-hard floor that's an astonishingly 154 percent harder than red oak. Floors in the Portfolio collection run about $9 per square foot.

This applies to all wooden floors, and not only for bamboo. The best floors, those who were our ancestors- Earthen floors. This is the best. Whatever you do, it will always be, in the same condition and, in the same capacity. :-))
