Maple Flooring
Lots of people choose solid hardwood flooring for their homes. Solid hardwood offers a lot of options, one of them being maple. Maple is a popular choice.

The cons of Maple are that it's not scratch-proof, and it doesn't stain well, this makes changing the color of your floor harder. Another con is that it's sensitive to temperature changes if it's placed in a humid area the planks could warp or split.
