Wanna see my impression of someone who might win $3,000 to spend on hardwood floors this weekend? Go look in a mirror. Get it? Because it’s you. Okay, terrible segue aside – Impressions Hardwood Collection is giving someone three grand this week, so now might be your shot to upgrade your floors. They’ve got options ranging from wide hand-scraped varieties to traditional 3 1/4″ planks, with a variety of color options, all backed by a lifetime warranty. Oh, and through March you can get $250 off any order of 750 square feet or more from their Classic Series with the code YoungHouse.
Please use the Rafflecopter widget below to enter (it might take a second to load, but it should eventually pop up below this paragraph). This giveaway is available to the continental United States (but we’ve got an international prize all queued up for next week!).
Kristen says
UGH, this makes me wish I was a homeowner! I want to enter..
Stardancer says
I’m not a homeowner, but I entered anyway. If I win, I’d love to send the prize over to my parents for their new-to-them house!
Martha says
I’m planning the same thing if I win! I don’t own yet, but my in-laws are looking to sell their house soon and replace the flooring on their first floor on a budget.
Leah says
I’m SO excited about this giveaway!!! We’ve been trying to figure out how to replace our floors on a tight budget…the floor was damaged when we moved in and is getting worse so we have to replace by this summer. Anyway, this giveaway is just what we need!! Keeping my fingers crossed! Any recommendations on inexpensive but durable flooring? Just incase we don’t win, because I wouldn’t say the odds are ever in our favor! A girl can dream though!!
YoungHouseLove says
Anyone have flooring recommendations for Leah?

We love our laminate floors. We have 3 kids, 3 dogs and a kitty. We will upgrade to hardwood, but after the kids are grown up.
Marissa C says
I’m a big fan of the wood-look ceramic available now. Definitely durable and quite pretty!
Amanda says
I have seen floors that looked great that were just stained plywood/luan that was sealed well. As long as your floors are fairly level, it’s not too complicated to install.
We just put in some Allen & Roth laminate from Lowes that was $2/sf…..it looks awesome and doesn’t sound plastic when you walk on it. It already has the foam on it so all it required over concrete was a vapor barrier but when we put the same floor over OSB, it was all set to go.
Ashley Bee says
Leah – don’t underestimate sheet vinyl. It’s a lot better than it used to be. They make lots of nice/realistic patterns these days and its super easy to keep clean. I know it’s not “hot” right now, but we just put some that looks like tile in our new house. I really like them! And no cold tile on the feet.
I’ve also seen wood plank looking vinyl that could probably save you money and would be DIY-friendly.
Good luck!
melissa says
Leah, I may be COMPLETELY mistaken, however…if memory serves me correctly, I recall reading or seeing something about awesome sealed cork floors. If the fine folks at YHL have info, this reader hopes they share. I will try to search my history and dig up the link.again, I may be off my rocker, but thought I’d share nonetheless. Good luck!
Melissa
melissa says
Previous comment retracted…I think it was on the YHL site that I read about the cork floors a few years back. Guess I thought it was a great idea back then, too.
YoungHouseLove says
Haha, yes that was us! We liked those cork floors! Very soft underfoot while cooking :)

We have wood-look vinyl plank in our basement. No one can tell it’s vinyl and it’s super durable and can be cleaned with a mop and water!
Impressions Representative says
Hi Leah – If you want real hardwood floors, we recommend looking at the Impressions Blue Ridge Series. It is an exceptional value for a “real” hardwood floor. http://www.impressionshardwoodcollection.com/flooring/blue-ridge-series/
We’ll be happy to send you free wood samples to see if this could be the floor for you, just click on this link, fill out the form, and we’ll get them in the mail to you and tell you where to find an Impressions dealer near you.

Ashley says
What an amazing giveaway! I could definitely use some new flooring ;)
Tracie W says
I was just talking to my husband about getting rid of the carpet in the dining room! Carpet. In the dining room. Oy.
N Shirley says
What a great give-away! Thanks so much! Hope I win!
Danielle C says
Ooooooh I REALLY want this one! We are building our house, and drywall is being finished next week. Ordering our hardwood is JUST around the corner! :)
Katie says
I’m a renter, but hoping that if I win that I can convince our landlords to use this to replace their floors… it really needs an update!!
Andrea says
Wheeee! We’re aching to do hardwoods on our upper floor after doing the 1st floor two years ago. I’d love to win!
Jamie says
Wow, what a great giveaway!
liz says
Oh this would be sooo awesome to win!!!! We’re trying to buy a foreclosure, currently… and there are some “flooring concerns” that we need to address… :)
Shelley says
OMG, I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to win this! We have been in our first home for almost 9 years and are still living with the lovely 70’s green shag carpet in our three bedrooms! We would love to put down some hardwood flooring but unfortunately are not great DIYer’s and it is expensive. Thank you!
Rachel says
Wow… This could be the solution to our whole “carpet in the master bathroom” debacle… Seriously, who does that?! It’s grossed me out from day one! Ugh.
hollie says
This could NOT come at a better time!!! I NEED this.. if you saw what I have now you would understand ;)
Dori says
We have the worlds worst cream carpet that we would love to replace with wood.
Claire H. says
Oooh that would be an awesome, and timely prize to win. Just last night *someone* overflowed the bathtub all the way into the hallway and now there’s a big water stain on the upstairs carpet.
brandi says
Oh how I want to win this! Maybe a blessing waiting :). We have three boys who have over the years left their mark on our flooring. My husband coaches and always bring extra kiddos home. Not to mention all the marks their friends have made too. It has been a normal day at our home for years to have 5+ boys here all the time. Fingers crossed to actually win!
Hailey says
Egad! This would be SO super awesome to win. Hardwoods in my bedrooms is all I want for Christmas! And every other holiday.
Mary Kaye says
I have a 1950’s house that has layers, upon layers, upon layers and so the floor is built up. I would love to have that all ripped out and have something nice in the process of upgrading my kitchen!
Jess says
My floors could use some lovin’!
Tricia says
I would do just about anything to replace our very WHITE carpet that is a pain to keep clean with the dogs…. not to mention I hate carpet anyway.
Emily says
I’m with you on that one! White carpet + Great Dane + two cats = constant cleaning. And we’re renting. Oy.
Kathleen says
This would be wonderful ! Our carpet needs to go bye bye :)
Katie Rollstin says
It would be a dream to replace the flooring we have now! We have a dark living room and dark flooring. Would love to lighten everything up!
Jess says
1. Oh boy do we need this for our house (Helloooooo 75lb doggies!)
2. They give you free samples!!!! This is magical. Thanks for pointing us their way! (Good to have a back-up plan in case we don’t win …)
tricia says
oh man, we need this so badly! We’re in the process of fixing up a 90 year old house and the previous owners “updated” things in the 80s. Pickled hard wood in the living room, linoleum in the dining room and original walnut floors upstairs that haven’t been touched in forever!
Debbie Olson says
I need new flooring so much, this would be a dream come true! Our whole house is in dire need!
Kim says
We need this so so bad!!
Katie T. says
We just put an offer in on a house and this would just be perfect! Regardless of who wins, this is an amazing giveaway! Good job, guys!!
Laura says
You guys always have the best giveaways!
Karen says
I have been desperate to put hard flooring upstairs! I have terrible asthma and get life-threateningly bad bronchitis almost every winter– and dust/dust mites are my #1 trigger. It’s terrifying. If I could get rid of the dust/carpet trigger, it would be AMAZING and I could focus on just being a good mama to my four littles instead of living in fear of getting sick!
Joanna says
We have truly.horrible.brown.carpet in our bedrooms. I had big plans for a change coming soon, alas a leaky roof has derailed my carpet-free ambitions. fingers crossed….
Joy says
We’re renting a condo in Kauai with the most gorgeous bamboo floors. I want them!!!!
Morgan Lewis says
I would diieeee. Please oh please!!
Amber Houser says
Fingers crossed! This would back amazing, and a much better surface for my little boy to learn to crawl on :).
Margot says
Yall always have the best give a ways!!
Haley Bradley says
We were just discussing when we’ll have room in our budget to redo our floors and decided we have to wait at least a year. This would be so awesome to win!
While I hold my breath, how did you like the cork floor in your last kitchen? I know you didn’t get to live with them for a super long time but did you have any problems with them or love them? We’re leaning in that direction for our kitchen/dining room and hardwood for the rest of the house (we currently have a mix of tile, laminate, and painted concrete).
YoungHouseLove says
We really liked it! I would say it’s a great choice for a shoe-free household but we hear that heels can ding it up, so if you have parties with swanky people in heels you might want to go with hardwood or tile instead.

Was just in Home Depot yesterday lovingly stroking the flooring and dreaming of the day it would be in my home. The cream carpet with stains including dog pee and nail polish really need to go. Who puts carpet in a dining room? Apparently builders in 2001 do.
Emily says
This could save me from my allergies : )
Kristen says
Sometimes I wish I were an American, especially for deals like this since I desperately need new flooring. Gah!
YoungHouseLove says
So sorry Kristen! We personally ask every vendor (twice, haha!) if they’ll extend their offers to wider areas, but sometimes it’s not legal for them to ship/vend their wares beyond a certain area. We do have a nice international giveaway all lined up for you next week though, so stay tuned :)

Kirsten says
I so, so would love to win this. Thank you!
Sarah B says
I am praying and keeping all appendages crossed! We have been ripping apart our home and putting it back together but haven’t been able to replace the floors yet….blue linoleum, complete with giant hole from where we torn down a wall, and cheap light colored laminate (on the steps to!!!). I would definitely cry if I somehow manage to win!
Shelby says
WOOOWWWWZAAA that is an amazing giveaway!!! Leah I have a laminate type hardwood flooring super durable looks real and great for a budget. But hardwood would be amazeballs!
Katie says
What a fantastic giveaway! We are getting ready to redo our entire kitchen/great room and this would be ideal!
Kates says
OHHH AWESOMENESS!!!
Shanna says
OHH! I have laminate that I would love to upgrade to hardwood! or I might be the greatest daughter and gift the floors to my mom :)
