At first we were excited about our Durastone flooring. It only took a month for us to realize what a bill of goods we had been sold. This "tile" is absolute junk! Anything, I mean anything that hits the floor will cause a tear. It only took a couple of years for the floor to looked like trash. There are nicks and cuts everywhere. We have tried protecting the floor with runners where the heavy traffic is or if there is danger of a can, spoon or anything else falling on the floor. We called the company several times and were informed that they have had no other complaints on this floor. This floor was not inexpensive. On hindsight, we could have purchased a much less expensive floor that would have held up a lot better.
