We carry a bamboo engineered that is a locking floor at HD. I think its around $3 to $3.50 a sq ft, somewhere around there. It looks pretty similar to real bamboo.

Exactly, real wood has to be either nailed down or glued down. Ive never seen a real wood thats even available in locking.

Yeah that stuff gets beat up in a hurry. Part of the reason we went with laminate is becaause of having 2 dogs that like running through the house. 8 paws with claws running around on engineered floors is not a good idea.
