What Customers Are Saying

The product received mixed reviews. Many found the risers to be of good quality and easy to install and paint, appreciating the pre-primed finish and ability to cut them to size. However, a significant number reported issues with warping and cupping, which made installation difficult and resulted in an uneven final appearance. Some recommended spending more for higher-quality solid wood risers instead. While the product works well for some, the widespread reports of warping suggest potential quality control concerns.

Risers

Would Recommend

Had to cut a few to the right width and repainted as it easily gets dirty. Love the 2 toned stairs though.

laminate stair risers

Would Recommend

We ordered 13 of these risers and 2 of them had to be returned due to damage and reordered. Nice looking once finished have to order online and it takes a full week to get and no way to track your order took longer due to having to reorder the two damaged steps.

Perfect

Would Recommend

Putting in a chairlift for my father in law and my wife took the opportunity to have me replace the carpet. These boards are precut to the standard step height and stainable on one side and primed on the other. I was very excited to find these (really didnt feel like cutting my own) and they went up quickly and easily.

Easy to Update Stairs

Would Recommend

Product made updating our stairs easier. Risers are sized so you only have to trim the length off to fit your stairs. We used these along with the oak stair threads purchesed at Lowes. Made a beautiful job.
