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.

Plan on cupped risers
Would RecommendThe riser is primed and ready to paint. It is easy to cut and fit to the existing stairs. I rated it low because every piece (12) was cupped making installation challenging.

much better than MDF, and good price.
Would RecommendWorks as expected. many bad reviews are about warp, actually that's a very normal/natural thing when you paint a wood board, you can search "how to fix wrapped board" on youtube, it's easy to resolve. after i painted them, all wrapped, then i fixed them all.
