KONO Laminate Collection
Espresso Oak
KO-130 Dark Roast
Our darkest laminate — striking against white walls, but plan on more frequent dusting, because dark floors show everything.

Board & Surface
Performance
Honest wording on "waterproof": the surface is waterproof; we filmed a 72-hour immersion test below. Standing water forced under the seams for days can still reach the core, so for full bathrooms we will point you to KONO LVP instead.
The 72-hour immersion test
We sank a finished KO-130 panel in a tank for three days, then measured swell at the seams. Watch the whole thing, timestamps and all.

From homes that live on it.
“Against white walls and brass hardware it is flat-out dramatic. Yes, you see dust between cleanings. Worth it.”
Elena Marchetti, East Sacramento
“Ran the key-scratch test from the samples page across a spare plank. Lost the bet with my wife; the floor won.”
Jordan Beck, Rocklin
“Four stars: gorgeous, but our robot vacuum runs daily now. Budget for that reality.”
Hank Yoon, Granite Bay
Owner questions.
Will it work over my radiant heat?
Yes, KO-130 is approved for hydronic and electric radiant systems up to a surface temperature of 84°F. Ramp the temperature over 48 hours after installation.
How visible is the pattern repeat?
There are 12 unique board faces per production run. In a typical room you will not find twins next to each other; our crews also shuffle boards from three boxes at a time.
Can I buy from the same dye lot later?
This entire stock is one production lot — #KO130-2605 — and we log your lot number with your order. That is also why we suggest keeping one spare box for repairs.
What underlayment do I need?
Our 1.5 mm acoustic underlayment is what earns the IIC/STC 68 rating and it is included in installed pricing. For DIY, it is $0.42 per sqft on the same shelf.
