ALL LAMINATES OR HARD WOOD SHOULD BE ACCLIMATED FOR 48 TO 72 HOURS BEFORE INSTALLATION. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT. AS A MATTER OF FACT, IF YOU DO NOT ACCLIMATE BEFORE INSTALLATION, YOU CAN VOID THE MANUFACTURES WARRANTIES ON THE PRODUCT.
For glue down engineered hardwood, no acclimation is okay (as long as the manufacturer guarantees it). For solid hardwood flooring, both unfinished and prefinished, acclimation is a must. The same thing for laminate flooring . Keep it in the house for at least 48 hours prior to installation. The negative effects of not acclimating your hardwood floors before installation can be either buckling or gaps between the boards. Another aspect of acclimation is the post installation period.
