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.

Would Recommend

I noticed it at home, and since the local hardware store is 11 miles closer than Lowes, I went there. Two folks worked to try to figur...
