Merino Oak has an unfinished look with rustic charm. The design is based on “natural-grade” European oak, which, while mostly uniform in appearance, includes natural imperfections such as knots and color variation. We lightly scraped and oiled the boards during our design process to reveal grain detail and other characteristics. Merino Oak is also available in a rigid core format, featuring a 5G® locking mechanism, for faster installation: AKP-RL36
