I have red oak hardwood floors in a medium-light stain. Someday I hope to refinish them to match my darker furniture. How dark and rich can oak be stained? My favorite is cherry wood with a dark reddish finish. Can oak achieve this color too?

Thanks,
ME

How dark... Ebony.

Yes, Oak is very stain friendly.
