Some mentioned there would be expansion issues; however, I did not have any issues.
The engineered flooring I used was cross-laminations of wood with a top hardwood lamination. Essentially, this engineered flooring is plywood. Therefore, it had the same expansion rates, due to changes in moisture content and/or temperature, as the plywood framing it was attached too.
There are some flooring products that laminate a hardwood layer to fiberboard substrate. Others, like the original Pergo floors, laminate a vinyl or plastic laminate to a fiberboard or dense paper substrate. Because they probably have different expansion rates than plywood, I don't think these products would work.
