Floor World is getting notice from our suppliers that there are issues and cost increases in underlayment. We noticed quality issues in underlayment four years ago (delaminating, popping, gaps between layers) and decided to switch to Integra Ply, which is a very good underlayment. Integra Ply is now being carried by other suppliers! We were ahead of this curve.
Most flooring installers use as cheap of an underlayment as possible ("luan") and this unfortunately results in floor problems down the line. Stick with installers that notice quality issues, and pay the extra dollar for Floor World to use the right product for your installation.
