What is the difference between solid and engineered hardwood?

Some may think that an engineered floor is a type of laminate, or a type of product made inexpensively overseas. Appalachian engineered flooring is real hardwood flooring with a Baltic Birch core. This core gives the product greater stability than a traditional hardwood floor and allows longer and wider planks to be produced than by conventional methods. Engineered products can also be installed in basements, on radiant-heated floors and on concrete slabs, places where traditional hardwood floors are unsuitable.
