Is this laminate or wood? The reason I asked we are in the middle of laying laminate and I am not real happy with it.

The reason I picked laminate was because of the dogs and their nails. The laminate pieces are big and the seams are too noticeable to me. I wish I would have researched it a little more before choosing what I did. If you are using wood I think color is all about your decor. Good luck but check out a finished laminate floor before choosing it.
