"They are both in my opinion equally good I think it’s a matter of personal opinion."

Answered on 12th Apr 2022 - Member since Apr 2020 - report"There are quite comparable floors although Maple is generally considered more visually appealing, also Maple is very much slightly harder than beech. With the woods being so similar the most important factor to consider really is the finish that you will have and the traffic and use of the room/area you intend to have the floor installed in."
