Damaged at mill, damaged by loaders of delivery.

List of milling issues from manufacturer. - First, they were milled at 1.80 inch thickness, not 1.75 inch - Second, they were milled at 9.625 in. width, not 9.5 in. - third, they were cut at 17ft, 9in., not 18ft. - fourth, one of the LVL's has a 1/2" cut approximately 6.5 inches long and 5/8" deep.... it looks like a milling end cut, mis cut and they shipped it.

Damaged goods

Product came damaged as the Lowe’s worker stacked them together to hide the damage. Didn’t discover until i waisted my time brining them home and unwrapping.

board is short

I ordered 4 of these and all 4 of them were short by 1-2 inches. The person I talked to said they shrink and to expect them to come short. My understanding is that engineered wood is less likely to shrink or warp. I have never had any ordered or purchased board (engineered or cut lumber) come shorter than what was ordered. I don't remember reading any fine print on this either. Very frustrating...

Could not fulfill

Ordered and waited a month with no update. Tracked it down through multiple customer service calls and the vendor simply didn't have the size lumber they offered here, so they left my order in limbo...

Very good beam

For a long open span, it's excellent. Much stronger and lighter than conventionally sawn timber.

Great LVL

These beams are of good quality. Straight where it counts. Holds up like it should.
