Cedar Lumber 2x4x8
Would RecommendI would recommend it to anyone who likes spending a bunch of time sorting through lumber that's more than a bit bowed twisted & full of knots. Yippy, good times!

Works great in place of PT's
Would RecommendI discovered these this year when you were out of PT boards. Best change I ever made; they look great when installed and didn't crack and split when in the sun.
Lumber
Would Not RecommendWe bought this and they are not true 1 1/2 x 3 and they were 1 3/8.
Inaccurate actual
Would RecommendThe actual width of these are 3 11/16, not 3 1/2. Good quality and straight though.

Boards
Would RecommendHad to pick through a bit to find undamaged boards but they stayed straight.
We are glad you found some good boards! We hope they work great for your project.
Very Nice Lumber!
Would RecommendTop Choice 2 x 4 x 8-ft Cedar Lumber used to replace horizontal fence pieces which had wood rot and decay. The lumber was perfectly milled, exactly correct size, and free of typical blemishes. First purchase consisted of (6) six pieces; all straight, clean and splinter free. I was so impressed with this lumber that I will build the fence gate from same material.
Hello, and thank you for your review. We are very glad that you bought some nice boards, and were able to build a gate!

Lowe’s gives decent wood for the $
Would RecommendNeeded wood without any chemicals added in the process and didn’t want to spend big bucks on it as no one would ever see the difference, and I’d be the only one that knew the difference. Was a good option, I’d get Lowes’ Wood again.
It does what it says.
Would RecommendCritical to what the job called for.

Would RecommendPick the product with the least departure from 'normal'. Avoids "treated" lumber.
