I’m considering the Vanguard TapTight hardwood flooring by Harris-Tarkett, sold through The Home Depot. It seems like everything I want, engineered wood, floating, no-glue installation (pre-applied glue), 25-year finish warranty (usually only found with laminates), lifetime structural, 3-time sanding warranty, convenient long plank format. But, I’m skeptical because Harris-Tarkett doesn’t even mention it at ALL on their website, and I can’t find it mentioned ANYWHERE on ANY website. Has anyone had any experience with this product?

It is made exclusively, and privately named just for Home Depot. It is a budget floor made especially for the DIY market. Call Harris Tarkett directly (423) 928-3122 or Fax (423) 928-9445
Ask them to fax The full installation specs, not just the small instructions page, that comes in the cartons. They may have an installation video?

i recently bought two rooms worth of ht vanguard oak wheat on clearance at hd... don't know if it's the same stuff...

these boards are nicely finished, almost 4 ft long, about 7.5 wide, and 9/16 in thick... 14.75 sq ft per case

tongue and groove, glue together floating install worked great in my mb over concrete slab (formerly wtw carpet)...
