Quick-StepImpressive CollectionSoft Oak Natural IM1855

Soft Oak Natural brings a clean, understated timber look to your home. The pale neutral tone works in any room, from living spaces to kitchens, and the brushed texture gives it a lived-in depth. This is a real-wood aesthetic without the maintenance or cost of solid boards.

Quick-Step Impressive builds this plank to handle real life. Its HDF core is water resistant, so spills in the kitchen or bathroom don’t catch you out. The 8mm thickness and AC5 wear class mean it copes with daily footfall in busy homes and even light commercial settings. Wide planks at 190mm across create longer sight lines and a more spacious feel underfoot.

Bevelled edges add a subtle shadow line between planks, which helps define the layout without fussiness. The click-joint system makes fitting straightforward and quick, and the plank works with underfloor heating, so you can plan your system without worry. Each pack gives you five planks covering 1.835m2, with a sound-dampening layer that reduces impact noise by 18dB.

Where it works

Laminate flooring like this suits living rooms, bedrooms, dining areas, hallways and landings. The water-resistant core handles kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms without fuss. It’s tough enough for offices and light commercial spaces, so you can confidently spec it in a variety of settings.

Installation and heating

Click joints mean you can lay it without adhesive, speeding up fitting and keeping mess to a minimum. An underlay is needed to even out minor subfloor imperfections and improve comfort underfoot. The plank is fully compatible with underfloor heating systems, so warm floors are a real option in your renovation.

Looking after it

Wipe spills promptly with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. A light vacuum or brush keeps dust at bay. Quick-Step backs this flooring with a lifetime domestic warranty and five-year commercial guarantee, giving you confidence that your investment will hold its looks and performance.
