A world leader in hardwood flooring, Armstrong has revamped its entire line of hardwood flooring as well as added about 125 new products. One of the hardest hit segments of the floor covering industry during the recession, Armstrong is making a statement to its dealers. Supporting them with new introductions, new program incentives and a comprehesive ad campaign to stimulate consumer awareness.
Armstrong’s Kent Clauson had this to say, “You can complain about the economy,” noted Kent Clauson, general manager of marketing for Armstrong Flooring Products, “but I guarantee there will still be winners and losers. Armstrong is making the investments in generating leads, in having the best products, and in smart and green manufacturing to ensure that our customers are among the winners.”ACWG has accepted this partnership and look forward to offering Armstong Hardwood Flooring brands such as Hartco Hardwood, Bruce Hardwood, and Robbins Hardwood to our customers who demand quality, price and performance.
I am a 35 year veteran of the flooring industry. The first 20 years as a retailer in various parts of the country, which helps me understand the needs of our customers across the country. The last 15 spent right here in Dalton, Georgia as a wholesaler and online retailer. I started American Carpet Wholesalers in August of 2002 with a dedicated staff of experienced professionals. Without them, the venture would have been extremely difficult. Personally, I am the father of 1 daughter and 2 wonderful grandchildren. A Vietnam Veteran and a believer in my fellow man.
OK if your an expert please try to explain this to me.
Product: Invincible Russet/Cherry Titanium 50 year warranty 5″ plank carpet one sku #735837.The boxes being installed in my home say Armstrong Metro Classics Amber/Cherry # 4510CAYZ. Their web site shows this part as a 25 year warranty. What is the differance between the two.
Hello Joe,
The answer is pretty simple. The company you bought the product changes the names
of the products to prevent you from comparison shopping. If you had of went shopping or inquired about the product elsewhere you would not have been able to compare apples to apples.
You actually got what you ordered. Now who is picking up the extra 25 year warranty is proabably not relevent as practically no one keeps a product that long or lives in a home for that length of time. I am sure the warranty is not transferrable to the next home owner.
I do not know what you paid for the product or how much you were charged for installation, but I do know if you could have shopped around you would found the Metro Classics for around $6-$7 per sq ft. Hopefully you did not cover a large area.
