I don't know who the hardwood came from, it was installed when the house was built two years ago, but we were very careful at first, hoping not to damage it, or ruin it's shine.
Two plus years later we have had a couple of dings caused by very heavy and pointed objects but we are overwhelmingly delighted with the almost impervious surface and the shine has weathered weekly damp mopping wonderfully well.
It isn't warm, or "giving" like the hardwood back home installed on a subfloor but it is doing the job and ranks right up there with tile. We love it.
