Lumber Liquidators and Formaldehyde...Beware!
« on: March 01, 2015, 05:09:34 pm »
Did you watch 60 Minutes tonight (3/1)?  One of the reports featured Lumber Liquidators and the fact that the flooring they import from China is filled with formaldehyde levels far beyond what is standard and safe.  60 Minutes sent reporters over to China to talk with the supervision in some of the mills Lumber Liquidators uses and the supervisors admitted Lumber Liquidators imports don't meet standards.  It also sounded like that is what Lumber Liquidators wants because it is cheaper.  The Chinese mills stated they can produce material at higher standards. So, if you have flooring from Lumber Liquidators and don't feel well, have respiratory issues, and don't know quite what's wrong, maybe you should look into this.  They said that children are especially susceptible.

I never heard of Lumber Liquidators. But thanks for the information. Good to know. Unfortunately, this just adds to the list of bad Chinese products.

WOW thanks for the information.  We want to have new floors put in one bedroom and were thinking of Lumber Liquidators, but not now.  Maybe that"s why they are cheaper.
