Being held hostage by a supplier
Waht can you do in this situation? Wood flooring supplier sold us prefinished oak floooring that he assured us was solid. We told him we only wanted solid wood so we could sand it and re-varnish if we wanted. We bought $1,800 worth of flooring. After a da's worth of installation by subcontactors, we discovered the wood was not solid, but in fact compossite. Now we are out $1,800 and the subcontractors want their money for teh aprtially installed floor. Aghhhhh!

Mr. Sandless?
Has anyone used Mr. Sandless to refinish hardwood floors? It sounds too good to be true, which makes me think that it probably is.

Pre-Finished Hardwood and Installer
We have to replace all the floors in our co-op and because we have to live there while it's being done, we've decided to go with pre-finished hardwood, probably in oak strip, as that's what is there now. My question is: what brand is best? Also, any recommendations on installers?
