COREtec Cairo Oak Vinyl Plank vs Swansboro Hickory Waterproof Vinyl Plank

Buy the COREtec Cairo Oak if you want long, wide planks with a realistic oak look and a built-in cork backing that quiets footfall. Buy the Swansboro Hickory if you want the thicker wear layer and a lower-gloss, more textured finish that hides scuffs. Both are waterproof click-lock SPC floors. The COREtec has the stronger owner record and the more forgiving plank size; the Swansboro has the edge on wear layer and thickness.

• Choose the COREtec Cairo Oak if you want 9 x 73 inch planks, attached cork, and a floor that can be glued down as well as floated.
• Choose the Swansboro Hickory if you want a 22 mil wear layer, a 6 mm plank, and a low-gloss textured finish for busy rooms.
