What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise the cedar pickets for excellent quality and value, highlighting natural beauty, rot resistance, and pleasant smell compared to treated lumber. Many appreciate the lightweight material and ease of working with it for diverse projects including raised beds, planter boxes, and birdhouses. However, reviewers frequently note inconsistent board quality, requiring time to sort through pallets for usable pieces; many recommend ordering five to ten percent extra to account for waste. A few mention thinner-than-expected boards or storage-related dampness. Despite these sorting challenges, most customers find the product worthwhile for both fencing and creative DIY applications.

Pitiful selection.

Would Not Recommend

Their inventory showed over 800 in stock. It doesn't mention that probably 75% of what I saw was covered in this black mold. I had time dig through 3 pallets to find 30 good boards. Not to mention the store looks like a disaster had hit it. Carts loaded with inventory in every isle so much so that customers had to go out in the parking lot to get a cart. Every employee visible seemed to be just standing around. Won't bother coming to this store again.

Cedar Picketts for Faux Beams

Would Recommend

Great value, used in place of expensive cedar planks in lumber section. Also use cut ends for planking food on the grill.

Inconsistent

Would Not Recommend

I bought these for a planter project. I was happy to see that these weren't soaking wet and full of bugs like some other places in town, however ... these are NOT 6 inches wide. probably doesn't matter if you're using them as actual fencing but forced me to alter a design.

Nice looking boards straight and clean

Would Recommend

The cedar boards were good. They are stored outside and they were wet. I had to separate them and dry them out for a few days. I used these to make a bench planter for our flower bed. They dried out straight and clear. Worked well I have used them for fencing d they looked great.
