    On July 8th, 2019, I purchased 51 boxes of ******* Vinyl Planks - 5.5mm SPC Click Lock - Influence Collection White **** It was installed January 2020 by a professional installer. We made sure to follow the detailed instructions and were barely able to lay the product down. We thought it was a good product for the first year. Beginning in September of 2022 the product started showing signs of buckling throughout the home. No rhyme or reason as the areas with the most buckling are not exposed to direct sunlight or excess humidity. This has been the worst purchase decision we have ever made. **************** is non-existent. Mailbox is always full. Emails go unanswered. *********** *** *** *** ******** *** ***** *** **************** ***** ****** ****** I will never purchase from this company again. I'll spend the next 3-5 years sharing my story until people begin to realize that this company is selling faulty products. Don't be fooled, floors may look nice for a year or two then prepare to rip it out and replace it due to delamination and buckling. If I could rate zero stars I would. Order # ******* Date of Purchase July 8th, 2019

    Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback on your experience, *************We are sorry to hear you have encountered an issue with a product installed. Buckling is typically linked to change in moisture and/or humidity within your property and information around this is widely made available online.I can see you emailed into our customer service mailbox (which is fully active and working) on the 1st January ****. We were closed on this day as it is New Years Day but I can see that we responded on the 2nd January **** and we are currently awaiting further information from you to be able to assist you further. Comments around our CEO are inaccurate and not relevant to the issue you are experiencing with your floor.We look forward to hearing back from you so we can assist further.Kind regards,BuildDirect
