"Bought for the bedroom, it is tricky at first to get the right angle to join together but when you use the floor fitting kit it made it very easy, although there were a few chipped peices. Overall the flooring went down well and looks good."

MY FIRST TIME, 05 October 2009
By DRJIM from SOUTHAMPTON ON SEA
Good Quality: 4 out of 5 4 out of 5
Value for money: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

Pros: anyone can lay this flooring, good effect for the money
Cons: some planks have marks use these at ends

"FIRST TIME I BOUGHT THIS FASTFIX FLOORING AND I DIDNT REALLY THINK IT WOULD LOOK THAT GOOD, HOWEVER IT LOOKS GREAT, ITS BEEN DOWN NOW FOR A MONTH AND STILL LOOKS GOOD. IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS ABOUT THE DELIVERY ITS SELF THEN I CAN SET YOUR MIND AT REST AS THE FLOORING CAME EXTREMELY WELL PROTECTED ON ITS OWN PALLET AND IF YOU ASK THE DRIVER HE WILL EVEN TAKE THE PALLET BACK WITH HIM."

Great value and excellent service, 30 September 2009
By mel from Hastings
Good Quality: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
Value for money: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

"Ordered goods on a Wednesday and by Thursday afternoon they had arrived.
Builder was sceptical about price and finish of it when I told him, but by the Monday morning he was impressed enough to go and order some for his dining room! Easy enough to fit although some tools are needed although not specified. For the price of this product I have no complaints and ordered an extra pack in case there were any breakages., which there were'nt. Have three packs and 2 scotia's left over, just need to order another three and that's my daughter's room sorted. One advice is to go for more expensive underlay though. My lounge, hall and dining room floor are in excellent condition, but for bedrooms or more uneven surfaces buy some decent underlay.

Awful, 26 August 2009
By Kingshah from West Yorkshire
Good Quality: 1 out of 5 1 out of 5
Value for money: 1 out of 5 1 out of 5

Pros: great colour
Cons: scratches to easy

"This flooring is truely awful. I've only had this flooring laid in my living room for around six months, yet it looks like it's been down for ten years due to scratches.
It cost me a small fortune for this flooring due to my living room being quite big, and now because it looks so bad I'm having to buy a new floor.
Total waste of money!

"Quite simply an awful product. Click lock system simply doesn't work very well. Joints are visible after fitting. The edge of the boards break off far too easily. Final finish looks OK, but nasty to walk on. Never again."

Best results I've had, 17 November 2008
By Boselectah from Liverpool
Good Quality: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
Value for money: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

Pros: dead simple to lay and locks together tightly

"This is the 4th time I've laid laminate flooring. My previous 3 jobs were all ok-ish but there were always sections that just wouldn't tightly butt together or lock-in. However, end result with Fast Fix 12 is stunning - every piece has slipped together perfectly with absolutely no gaps anywhere. I did a big through lounge with a bay and funny angled fireplaces (took 12 packs); despite these challenging bits the flooring went down a dream,"

Would not recommend, 02 August 2008
By BluePaul from East Ussex

"I hate to say but really not very good at all, especially if for the DIY fitter. The click lock system is the poorest I have used, did not fit together very well at all and joints are clearly visible on completion."
