Ultimate Waterproof WPC Vinyl Plank vs COREtec Waddington Oak WPC Vinyl Plank

Both are 20 mil WPC click-lock planks, so durability and water resistance are close. The COREtec Waddington Oak is the better-known name, has a wider 9-inch plank, an attached cork pad and GREENGUARD GOLD air certification, and its rigid core needs no expansion gaps in large rooms. The Ultimate plank is thicker at 12 mm with a longer 72-inch board and a lifetime residential warranty, which suits a solid, quiet feel over a concrete slab. Owners of both report easy floating installs and good scratch resistance; COREtec has the longer track record and more installer familiarity.

• Choose the Ultimate Extra Large Vinyl Plank if you want a thicker 12 mm board with a lifetime residential warranty and a built-in IXPE pad for a solid, quiet feel.
• Choose the COREtec Waddington Oak if you want a proven brand, a wider 9-inch plank, cork underlayment and GREENGUARD GOLD indoor air certification.
