I purchased 700 sq. ft. of Mohawk 3" Hamilton Oak engineered wood flooring about three years ago and it has been stored in the original boxes inside my climate-controlled house since then. I am just getting started with the project and have noticed that some of the planks are slightly bowed. When I first purchased the flooring I opened a couple boxes to check it, but I don't recall seeing any bowed pieces then. The bowing is not severe, and I don't think it will be a problem once the planks are locked together and glued down over a concrete slab. However, I'm not sure if this is considered normal or if it will affect the installation. Thanks for any help.
