        "text": "Solid hardwood is a single piece of wood from top to bottom, offering durability and the ability to be sanded and refinished multiple times over decades. Engineered hardwood consists of multiple layers, with a top veneer of real wood and a core of plywood or high-density fiberboard. Engineered wood is more stable in environments with fluctuating humidity, making it suitable for areas where solid wood might warp. Both offer the aesthetic of real wood, but their construction impacts performance and installation.",
