Hello, I just had 4" White Oak flooring Installed and it doesn't look like I expected to. We decided to go with a natural finish. I am disappointed there is so many variations in the wood. I asked for clear, the bundles said select.
I expected more consistency, am I wrong and this is typical for what I asked for?
Thank in advance!

Did th3e contractor say he could get clear plank?
Usually clear is available in 2.25 inch strip flooring, I believe.
Over time the wood will become more even darkening to a golden color.

Yes, We requested the wider board thinking it was more contemporary. It appears we should have done our homework, we only looked at samples online.
Thanks for the speedy reply. This is a very informative and enlightening Forum.
