I would totally get this but with only one "stain" color, so that you would have to look at it, then do a second take, and see the fact that it's PUZZLE PIECES!
I can see doing a faux treatment to get this effect on a pergo type floor. Maybe even a kind of "floor film" that you can remove when you get tired of it or it gets scuffed up, kind of like a "screen protector" for your floor that also has an interesting design look.

I'm surprised the Hot has won out (so far).
I see this as appealing for kids maybe. Hrmmm.

Joice, it's the gorgeous look of the wood, plus it's playful but not TOO playful.

P.S. I just went to the site and took a look at the instruction manual...this stuff looks GREAT in the photos. You really do snap it together like a puzzle, using glue to hold it to the surface it's being installed onto. The price seems pretty reasonable to me as well. I would seriously have considered this if I'd seen it before having my current Pergo installed.

So fun for a kid's room or daycare. I'd do smaller pieces and a greater variety of stains; the odd green or blue tint could be fun.

Cute at first, but I think I'd be sick of it in a week.

Looks good for a cafe, game store or child's room.

I like it. I'm a scientist and I see my job as solving puzzles. I guess I've always had a soft spot for the imagery.

like this too -- the sort of gag that kind of sneaks up on the unwary visitor....

That would totally be cool and fun if this was sold as a do-it-yourself floor kit like FLOR.
