Make sure you buy an install kit that has the aforementioned wedges plus an install tool. The tool is used to tap the pieces into place when you get to the end of the rows. Trust me, you really don’t want to try it without it. Also. be sure to let it sit in the area where it will be installed for at least a few days, preferably a week.

I second that install bar. It makes it easy to tap together without damaging the floor.

I never installed it in a kitchen, but correct me if I’m wrong… don’t you have to glue the joints prior to snapping it together too? Just to prevent water soaking through.
