If you are looking for a unique flooring option, you might want to consider exotic woods, specifically Acacia. Acacia is known for its variation in grain patterns and distinct look. Here are a few things you should consider before selecting Acacia.

  1. This wood comes in short planks, not long ones. If you prefer a cleaner look, this may not be the best choice for you.

  2. Acacia is known to shrink if the surrounding humidity is too high. Proper control of moisture is essential for Acacia.

Despite these negatives, there are many reasons why you should consider this flooring.
