Random width oak flooring uses boards of varying lengths—and, in some designs, widths—to create a less uniform floor pattern. Among these options, HomeStock and Casafoyer offer full-box engineered European oak flooring, while the City Crave listing is for samples only. MULGREAT is a vinyl alternative with an oak look, not oak flooring. Compare construction, plank width, finish, and coverage before choosing.

HomeStock Rosewood European Oak
This product is a 1/2-inch-thick, 7-inch-wide engineered European oak floor with random-length, hand-scraped planks and a Rosewood finish. Each box covers 26.24 square feet. The listing describes engineered construction intended to resist moisture and temperature changes, and identifies kitchens and basements as possible use areas.
Best for: Buyers seeking wide-plank engineered oak with a textured, hand-scraped appearance. It was selected for its clear dimensions, stated coverage, and installation options: the listed planks can be nailed or glued down. The product description also identifies a non-slip finish.
Limitation: The listed installation methods are nail-down and glue-down; the product details do not specify a floating installation option. Check the full installation instructions and site conditions before purchase.
Casafoyer Sango Premier 7-Inch Oak
Casafoyer’s Sango Premier listing describes 1/2-inch-thick, 7-inch-wide, random-length, hand-scraped European oak engineered hardwood in Rosewood. A box is listed as covering 25.26 square feet. These specifications make it a direct wide-plank comparison with the HomeStock option.
Best for: Buyers looking for a 7-inch-wide random-length oak floor and comparing box coverage across similar styles. Its listed width, thickness, finish, and surface treatment provide useful selection details.
Limitation: The supplied product information does not specify installation methods or additional performance details. Confirm installation requirements, site suitability, and exact coverage with the seller before planning a project.
Casafoyer Sango Premier 5-Inch Oak
This Casafoyer option is listed as 1/2-inch-thick, 5-inch-wide engineered European oak with random lengths, a hand-scraped surface, and Rosewood finish. The stated box coverage is 26.24 square feet. Its narrower plank width distinguishes it from the brand’s 7-inch version.
Best for: Buyers who want the same listed finish and construction style in a narrower plank. It is useful for comparing how 5-inch boards fit a room’s scale or a planned layout against wider alternatives.
Limitation: The listing details provided do not state how the flooring should be installed or describe moisture performance. Verify those requirements rather than assuming they match another engineered oak product.
MULGREAT Blayney Oak Vinyl Planks
This is a peel-and-stick vinyl flooring product with a Blayney Oak appearance, not solid or engineered oak. The listing describes 36 pieces measuring 36 by 6 inches, 1.5 millimeters thick, and 54 square feet of coverage. It also notes an embossed wood texture and describes the flooring as water-, scratch-, fire-, and stain-resistant.
Best for: Buyers comparing an oak-look adhesive vinyl alternative with wood flooring. The listed self-adhesive format and stated coverage may be relevant when evaluating a different flooring category.
Limitation: It is vinyl rather than oak hardwood, so it does not provide a real-oak surface. The listing also cautions that displayed color can differ from the actual product because of screens and lighting.
Elegance Plyquet City Crave Sample
This listing is for two 8-inch wood flooring samples, not a full flooring order. It describes an engineered-ply construction and lists floating, nail-down, or glue-down installation types. The product name identifies Lager White Oak, but the supplied details do not state random plank widths or full-box coverage.
Best for: Buyers who want to examine a sample before selecting flooring. It was included as a limited way to review an engineered white-oak option, not as a substitute for a full quantity of random-width flooring.
Limitation: The listing explicitly says “Sample Only.” Confirm that the sample represents the product and dimensions intended for the eventual floor order.
Buying Guide
What does random width mean?
Random-width flooring uses boards with more than one width; random length refers to boards with varying lengths. These are separate characteristics. The three Rosewood engineered oak descriptions above specify random lengths, but their stated widths are fixed at either 5 or 7 inches. Do not assume that “random length” means random width.
Should you choose 5-inch or 7-inch planks?
Compare plank width with room scale, the desired visual pattern, and layout plans. The Casafoyer options provide a direct 5-inch-versus-7-inch comparison in the same named collection and finish. HomeStock also lists 7-inch boards. Review actual product images and obtain samples where possible before committing to a full installation.
How should you compare box coverage?
Check the listed square footage per box and calculate the total area needed from measured room dimensions. HomeStock and the Casafoyer 5-inch option list 26.24 square feet per box; Casafoyer’s 7-inch option lists 25.26 square feet. These figures do not include any extra material for cuts or future repairs, so ask the seller or installer how much additional flooring to plan.
Does engineered oak suit every room?
Engineered construction and product-specific moisture claims vary. HomeStock describes resistance to moisture and temperature changes, but that does not establish suitability for every room or installation condition. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and confirm subfloor, moisture, and installation requirements before choosing a location.
