Hmmm. Now I know where I can get some cheap flooring!
On another note: It was reported the other day that 85% of the vaccines sold in America are now made in China. Thank you US government.
LUMBER LIQUIDATORS... THE WORST COMPANY EVER!
Wasn’t there a similar stink a couple of years ago concerning formaldehyde in Chinese-made drywall?
When will they ever learn?
Meryl Streep and Alar (60-minutes, also).
Damaged apple growers significantly.
Growers brought suit, but case was moved from Yakima to Spokane (as I recall), and they lost.
So I hold back judgement on anything 60-Minutes says. Actually, “Don’t Trust, wait for verification.”
Scratching my head over the formaldehyde hysteria. Particle board and MDF both use substantial amounts, and they are the primary materials used in a fair amount of laminated/veneered furniture.
Don’t worry radon neutralizes formaldehyde.
American manufacturing is doing great...on foreign soil.
The key word here is "laminate", also know as cheap crap in most wood applications.
It's pretty much impossible to comply with all their crazy rules out there so you do the best you can (or you cheat). The problem is, since their market is so large manufacturers are forcing everyone else in sane states to pay for all the extra stuff and labeling that they need to do for California. I cannot wait for the day when they all start saying "to heck with it, I'm not selling there" and cutting back on all the crap.
But of course then the feds will come in on a commerce clause ruling and demand that they comply with California rules whether they sell there or not, in the name of fairness. A sort of anti dog-eat-dog rule.
It is cheap flooring made cheaply.
But if you are the type that wants to change your floors constantly to redecorate then yeah it will work. But it is not made for the long haul.
And building materials made in China is a game of craps at best.
My Mom saw the report last night and of course had a major freak out. Im in California so Lumber Liquidators are HUGE here..we have wood flooring in our house, my sister has laminate in her house(Bedroom, living room, etc) she did not get it from Lumber Liquidators but with many wood stores, they often buy from each other so who knows where the place she got it from got their flooring..My sister is about to have a baby so of course my Mom worries what kind of cancer causing chemicals she might be exposing the baby to
Four years later ——
Lumber Liquidators to pay $33 million for misleading investors
“60 minutes” == FAKE NEWS.
See? BS!
somebody needs to come home
The fact that the USA imports any wood products is astoundingly stupid and inconceivable.
