What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this concrete mix for exceptional reliability, ease of use, and strong performance. Most highlight fast yet manageable setting time, smooth workability, and crack-resistant durability after curing. Reviewers note the ideal pot life allows sufficient time to finish without rushing, and the hardened concrete remains rock hard and difficult to drill through. Many affirm it performs exactly as advertised, delivering professional-grade results for securing heavy structures. A small number reported isolated issues with hardened lumps in bags, though most consider these exceptions rather than product flaws. Overall, customers trust this as a go-to choice for concrete projects.

Why would you use 3500 instead of this for the price difference?

Great for a retainer wall!

Would Recommend

They are great! This concrete mix works so well for building a retainer wall. Out of 50 bags only one tore. I intend to buy more, since the project isn't done.

Aggregate mix

Would Recommend

Used this for a patio stone project with a group of 5 year olds. This specific mix had too much aggregate for a thin layer in a mold. Not the products fault. Would be better suited for 6" or more thick

Great Product

Would Recommend

Product was great. Used it for making countertops in my outdoor kitchen. Wanted a product that wouldn’t set up fast, but would give me the strength without rebar. Tops were 26” wide and 60” wide and I picked them up and had no problems with it cracking while moving. Even added a few bags of flow control and it poured great.
