Lumber Liquidators Lumber Liquidators, Inc. Wrong product for the application, terrible customer service, no resolution Toano, Virginia

Were concerned that our grievance with Lumber Liquidators will get lost among the sea of  complaints posted about this truly awful corporation, but if we can head off even one similar interaction it will have saved someone similar grief, and cost LL money.  We waited months for a response from them regarding  the condition of our hardwood flooring, and the splitting and gaps that have developed since it was installed last year.  We assumed that LL would at least compensate us for the flooring, not to mention the cost of installation, moving furniture, time lost from work, kenneling the dog, on and on.  Nothing.  Not so much as a token 10% off coupon. 
Not a cent of relief, or an apology for the horrid customer service or the months-long wait, only to find out that Lumber Liquidators were not going own up to their responsibility.  Here is a simple response to the LL disposition that we received, youll get the idea

LL: it was discovered that the installer did not turn the raidant [radiant] heat on prior to the installation of the flooring.
RESPONSE: The installer may or may not have turned it on we didnt specify either way.  LL claimed that they were going to interview the installer, apparently they didnt.  Regardless, this point doesnt get at the core issue Lumber Liquidators advised and sold us the wrong product for the application (solid wood over radiant heat, with seasonal evaporative cooling).

LL: moisture left in the slab will enter the flooring as soon as the heat is turned on.
RESPONSE: Moisture was already in the wood from the summer moisture and evaporative cooling.  The instability of the wood and the subsequent swelling and buckling from the summer moisture, prior to the heat being turned on the following autumn, was the first indication of the true problem instability in the wood, and a poor application for this residence and region.  Lumber Liquidators either doesnt understand the true issue, or theyre trying to obfuscate the issue to avoid liability.

LL: After review of the Durawood installation instructions which are included, there is no mention of floating a solid wood floor as an option.
RESPONSE: See figure page 10 of the Durawood instructions (3/7/2011).

LL: It appears in the photos that there is some sort of underlayment over the concrete but no mention of the 6ml poly sheeting that is required over concrete subfloors.
RESPONSE: There is indeed a 6ml moisture barrier installed beneath the wood flooring.  This was explained to Lumber Liquidators over the phone, twice, and is shown in the photo images that they requested.

LL: Engineered wood flooring is the flooring of choice for radiant heat.
RESPONSE: Exactly (nothing like having the defendant hand you the evidence).  This is what Lumber Liquidators should have told us from day one.
