I'd be interested in any replies too!
I had bamboo flooring installed at one of my Rochester homes few years ago and they got scuffed easily... We used Morningstar (I think - the same name as the Veggie burgers ;) If you want go green you should check out the flooring by Eternity -same concept as bamboo and oh my gosh - they're amazing! no scuffs and actually looks like real wood. They'll even let you try sawing it with a saw and you wont see a mark. :hearts:

I noticed they carry bamboo as well - im sure they're scratch resistant compared to the Morning Star.
We just put some in our master and so far so good (but it's only been about a month). This is what we have (I think!)

I inquired about bamboo when we moved into our new house, and our contractor said they scuff easily as well, and with the dogs said we wouldn't be happy with it.
That's interesting. We were told at the floor place that they were one of the hardest woods and wouldn't scuff easily. DH actually did a 'scratch test' using several different samples of wood and the bamboo easily was the best (from the ones we were considering).

I guess we'll find out soon enough, though.

See, that's what I had heard too, which is why i was considering it.
