About This Product

Encounter Plus features tried-and-true hardwood visuals for classic, undeniable appeal. This waterproof vinyl plank flooring is a great choice for high-traffic areas prone to splashes, spills, and whatever else life throws its way. These planks are designed to look and feel just like the real thing but without the hassle or upkeep of traditional hardwood. Plus, the Soft Silence acoustical pad provides noise reduction and added comfort. Natural Variation: this product is made of natural materials, which makes it unique and can lead to slight color/size variations.
