What Customers Are Saying

The poplar wood boards received mixed reviews. Some customers found the boards to be of good quality - straight, flat, and easy to work with for various DIY projects. They appreciated the smooth finish and how well the wood took stains and finishes. However, a significant number of customers reported issues with the boards, such as them being bowed, cupped, or warped, or having defects like knots or splits that made them unusable. The quality of the boards appears to be inconsistent, with some excellent pieces but also some that are unusable.

Excellent choice

Would Recommend

Excellent wood, very straight, clean wood, Im going to use this as a shelf in my bar. The wood is clean, has some hi-lites in the grain, I'll finish it with a satin clear finish to hi-lite the grain and colors.

Poplar is great for painted projects.

Would Recommend

I hand picked this poplar board. It was flawless, no knots or defects. It didn't need sanding, so it was ready for priming and painting.

Premium Grade Price but….

Even with searching for best boards in the store, had to settle on mildly cupped boards. For my project it was ok but for premium lumber, we deserve better.

Plan on searching through many

Would Recommend

The color and figure was good has to search through many boards to find a decent one. Board has slight twist but was able to make it work.
