Forum Title: Laminate plank warp/bow from box?

About to start my first install with laminate. Is it normal for the planks to have some degree of warp or bow? Do they lay down eventlly or is this lot of flooring defective? I have looked at other brands and they all seem to have some degree of irregularity if you sight down the planks.

Who is the manufacturer and where did you buy it? All laminates can have some bow to them, Depends on allot of factors, temp, acclimation, relative humidity, MDF vs HDF, thickness etc etc.
