What is the difference between Select grade and Clear grade?
Select grade is a grade slightly lower than Clear. It may have wider color variation, some minor face blemish, shorter average lengths (generally 2.5) and/or higher tolerance for acceptable milling standards. Clear Grade(also known as Select & Better)is the highest grade of flooring available. It has longer average lengths (3.5) and lower tolerance for acceptable milling standards. Some items on our Factory Outlet are Clear grade. They are just overstocks, remnants and/or discontinued items. The items that are Select grade are noted as such on the factory outlet.
