What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these composite shims for outperforming wood alternatives—they don't split, warp, or degrade, making them ideal for doors, windows, cabinets, and subfloors. Reviewers highlight their stackability, precise 1/16" adjustments, smooth insertion, and durability in damp environments. Many appreciate the ease of use and keep multiple packs on hand. Some report inconsistent breaking or snapping, and a few note the flat shape requires stacking rather than gradual adjustment. Overall, most consider them the most reliable shim option available.
