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.

Would Not RecommendI know part of this lies on me for not going and selecting my own boards, but they ones selected have big splits. Several of the boards were bowed and warped. Also, the dog ear were off with one being higher than the other. This is a quality control issue from the manufacturer.

Fence picket
I looked for these last week and couldn’t find them! Little did I know they are in lawn and garden, not lumber! Alls fare in love and war, I found them and they worked great for what I wanted.

Cedar fence panels are perfect to make raised beds
Would RecommendI used these cedar fence panels to make raised planting beds. The beds are 6’ x 3’ and approximately 18” high. These panels worked great. 9 panels make one bed. Using a 2 x 4 cut to 18”, secure the boards in each corner and in the middle of the long side using wood screws, the beds went together quickly and look great.
