This did the job perfectly. I didn't need a lot because I just needed to fix a hole in my ceiling caused by a pipe leak. However, it was just the thickness we needed. Did what it needed to.

Excellent value and quality product
This item came as described. Plan to have at least 3 people to help with installation and lifting, unless you rented a lift. It is heavy due to thickness (5/8") and fire resistant. It definitely made a difference in the heating of our studio after the weather changed.
