Now i know why. It looked great aand was cheap but after about 2-3 years we started seeing panels bubbling up and only in the kitchen. Long story short, its from water, like dropping an ice cube on the floor and not seeing it for a while, small drips of water coming off of plates, etc. We are now looking at real hardwoods and explaining our situation, everybody said never put it in the kitchen, or anywhere where it could get wet. Some engineered woods are the same way also.
