I don't like the look of bambo, so won't be using it, but if you like or don't mind the look then appears to be a hard wearing surface.
The durability is what interests me. I like floorboards but had to rule them out. Sixty kilo special needs dog that lives inside.
It's hard when you can't see or get feedback on "lived in" bamboo floors if that makes sense. I think it'll look good as a contrast with the carpet as well. Also really interested in the sustainability aspect of bamboo. Very friendly product. God, I'm impressing Yak and Ash, I just might get lucky!!

It's not that sustainable IMO - takes lots of energy to make it into a floorboard.
As for lucky -
I thought it was considered quite environmentally friendly as bamboo is only 3 years to renew after harvest. I understand that there is energy use involved in making the floorboard but there would be for any option. Tiles, vinyl. I've got to have something, what is most environmentally friendly for hallway, kitchen, living, dining?
My head is going to explode!!!!

It's a renewable option, - you just need to ensure the source is a good one.
This article suggest a couple of other products.
