Hi, I’m just wondering what are the pros and cons of cherry flooring? What situations would be most suitable for installing this type of flooring?

"Hello, real wood cherry flooring. Cherry timber is not as dense as other woods so it will have a tendency to scratch and dent easier than other woods. It can also discolour and fade.

Pros, this timber is that it is a unique finish and has a rich colour if kept oiled"

"Hi Catherine. The only con is the work it takes to lay it. Apart from that it’s hard-wearing and has a beautiful finish to it.

Thanks, hope this helps
