I used Konecto Hardwood Vinyl Plank Flooring when I remodeled my kitchen. I had a professional installation to make my life easier. I have read that Konecto was a great brand but after it was installed it began to lift. I have a warranty but it has been difficult to get in touch with Konecto directly. If you use this floor brand I recommend using a different flooring adhesive because mine lifted.Suggestion: Durabond, from Bostik is good. Ive used it before for a do it yourself project I attempted months back. IF you choose Konecto make sure to use a good adhesive so your floor wont lift.

Thanks for your advice Adam. I will look into it but I had Konecto's Vinyl Plank flooring that imitate bamboo installed recently and I have had no problems. I wonder if each individual retailer that carries Konecto uses a different adhesive or does Konecto provide the adhesive along with the flooring to the flooring retailers? Never thought to look until now.My Konecto isn't lifting, it's in perfect condition thus far. Good luck to your floors.

I am a little confused by Adamn S. s comment. I thought Konecto was a floating vinyl floor to be installed over another component. Did he try to glue it down? What is the preferred method of installation?

Hello Ron,

I have no idea what Adam S did as you are RIGHT, Konecto is a floating floor. I can only imagine the mess he got himself into. As a professional installer we see things like this all the time with do it yourself flooring projects. Even though is may seem easy, having a professional guide you is probably the wise decision after an investment like this. Hope that your installation goes betters than Adams. Start with no adhesive on the vinyl and you will already be off to a better start.
