Solid wide plank white oak floors?

Anyone install something like this recently in their home? We’d love to get some references on where you got your flooring. We’re hesitant to order online since it’s hard to tell from just a small
sample and my wife has a very specific look she wants.

There’s a flooring store across the street from Lowes in Park Slope that’s not Lumber Liquidators. I forget the name of the store, but they have good reasonably priced flooring — oak, etc. We got 5″ oak planks there and it was inexpensive and convenient and the people were totally professional. We were also able to return planks we didn’t use.

i ordered online and did very well. there are some guys selling 5 inch wood floors on ebay — turned out to be much cheaper than any store and came out gorgeous.

Check out Hull Forest Products. They’ll make any plank size; any cut, in any grade of wood.
