Samples and Photos
The decorative layer of laminate floor is resistant to color changes from light exposure. But it is not absolutely light color
fast. Exposure to light will affect the appearance of the floor. The level of change is dependent on the intensity of the
light and length of exposure. Home Legend, LLC does not warrant against appearance changes in the planks. Any sample,
photos or models is for demonstrative purposes only and they do not create a warranty of any kind that the goods you
purchased shall conform thereto. Home Legend, LLC does not warrant against variations between samples, photos or
models and the installed flooring.
