The plant's extensive root system continually grows underground and it replenishes itself naturally, as grass does.New growth, which springs out of the ground and can mature up to 24" in 24 hours and unlike trees, bamboo will regenerate quickly, making it a renewable resource.Natural: Bamboo in its natural, unstained state.A birthday cake without frosting?That's a floor without matching trim and molding.Click here to find our extensive selection ofnatural & stained trimsand moldings so that you can match wood species to your new floor.(Who else can offer this?)Comparing Bamboo prices?

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Vertical Natural Bamboo:

We only put 1/4 of the floor down in the living room. When we moved the TV cart back over it the floor was noticably marked. My husband dropped a nickel on it and it dented the floor. Took the unopened boxes back to the store and the employees at our local store are trying to contact the manufacturer (Morning Star) to see if we can get our money back.

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Vertical Natural Bamboo:

I love the natural bamboo color, its very clean-looking. It brightens any room, adding a high-end feel. I've only been using the new floors for a couple of weeks so I can't comment one way or another on the durability, but you sure get a lot of bang for your buck with bamboo.

Service & Delivery comments:

The service was excellent; the sales people were extremely knowledgable and helpful.

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Vertical Natural Bamboo:

I hired a professional carpenter to install the floor due to the angles and design that I wanted. He complained about the glue being very messy and difficult to work with. But the floor came out beautiful and I look forward to many years of enjoyment.

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Vertical Natural Bamboo:

We bought this product because it is a sustainable resource. The light color was perfect for our dark hallway.
Note: Always trim your door jambs; don't try to cut around them! We tried to cut around one door frame and it looked horrible.

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Vertical Natural Bamboo:

High quality product. It has a beautiful finish, and we didn't have a problem with scratching or denting, even while we moved in furniture and appliances. Installation was a breeze after the first few rows, and our teenager ended up doing half the installation. We installed this in our living and dining room, and we plan on buying more and installing it in the rest of the house for our next project. I can't recommend it enough.

Product is very nice. We used the tiger strand in the master bedroom which doesn't show any marks. Vertical/natural we used in the living/dining room...noticed a couple of dents/scratches already from furniture. Overall we are happy with the product, but we've only had it for a week.

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Vertical Natural Bamboo:

I am impressed with the quality of the machined edges, and the fit and finish of Morning Star bamboo flooring. The cracks between are so minimal due to the micro beveling, as compared to the large dust-catching cracks common in other brands found in homecenters. Really a quality product, and great for the enviroment!

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Vertical Natural Bamboo:

We had it installed as a part of a major remodel. We felt it was a good value. It looks great. We installed it as stated above plus our hallway to the bedrooms/baths. Had a few pieces that were "off" (understand that is somewhat normal) but we still ended up with an extra box because our installer is that good with bamboo! He's a perfectionist!

I used this in my condo (about 1200 square feet) I glued it down. The look is top notch, the finish is great. The only thing is that it dents really easy. So DON'T drop anything hard or sharp on it.

first time doing harwood and did 1100 sqf in my whole house and it went great and looks awesome... only complaint was some full boxes were quite a bit diffrent in color and so i had to sort through them to mix em up so i wouldnt have stripes... but the darker wood mixed in looked great.. i didnt think a whole box woul dbe darker or lighter... i think it was because of the dates a couple boxes were processed diffrent dates...something to keep in mind but a great floor none the less

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Vertical Natural Bamboo:

This is a very nice looking floor and easy to install. I installed it in my kitchen, then added cabinets and countertops. The only issue I have is that it scratches very easily, we have had the floor for about 2 weeks and there are many dings on the floor. We were careful to protect the floor by placing cardboard on the floor and underneath anything we moved, still we ended up with scratches and dings. On the plus side, the scratches and dings are only visible when you stand right on top of them.

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Vertical Natural Bamboo:

This was my first hardwood flooring project, and it went very well - the installation was easy, the material was very consistent in both fit and finish. I have three young children, and the bamboo has been used/abused for almost 2 years and it still looks great - it resists scratches and scrapes much better than anticipated. The price is right, and the quality is even better - will definitely use the Morning Star Bamboo flooring on our next project!
