What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the 4x4 pressure-treated lumber for straightness, durability, and structural reliability in outdoor projects like fencing. Reviewers consistently note posts are uniform, free of crooks, and well-suited for ground contact applications. The treatment quality is frequently commended as thorough and rot-resistant, with the reddish-brown tint indicating proper chemical penetration. Most find excellent value for the price. A small number report occasional warped or overly wet pieces, though these issues are far outweighed by widespread satisfaction with performance and longevity.

Product is heavy and difficult to set straight.
Excellent quality. Not sure of hemlock durability to not rot in the ground.

Never have anything delivered from Lowes!
Delivery process is a joke and bait and switch. I was promised two day delivery at checkout. On the second day, the whole day it said it was going to be delivered, then at the end of the day it pushed the delivery date out 8 days! On that 8th day I waited all day for it to be delivered only to have them lie to me and push it out another 2 days!! So I went from two day delivery to almost two weeks!

Solid and Good Quality Wood
I’m really happy with the quality of this 4x4 lumber. The piece I got was straight with minimal knots, and the wood feels sturdy and reliable. It cuts cleanly and works great for outdoor and indoor projects. I used it for a small home improvement project, and it turned out perfectly. Overall, very consistent quality and worth buying if you need dependable lumber.
