Customer Reviews for Columbia Forest Products 3/4 in. x 2 ft. x 8 ft. PureBond Cherry Plywood Project Panel (Free Custom Cut Available)

Bought this plywood for my basement bar. I only needed 1 sheet as I am using it for just the outside face. I called 4 different local plywood sellers, 2 wouldn’t sell to me and the other 2 wanted $200+ for a 4x8 sheet. I can buy ~6 sheets of this for nearly the same price. The cherry veneers are pretty thin, but workable. My only issue was the shipping as two corners were slightly damaged. Doesnt matter much as ill need to square the ply up anyway so there will be some waste.

Please note: these panels have an A side and a B side. The A side has well veneer strips 6ish inches wide and grain matched. The B side has veneer strips less than four inches wide and not well matched. I first bought one and was very happy with the grain pattern (one one side). I bought a second one and while it looked OK it did not match the first. So I bought two more and kept the two that best matched and returned the other two. I would strongly recommend buying more than you need and returning the leftovers after picking through.

Well packaged, arrived quickly. Flawless faces. Plywood sides nicely match cherry drawer faces. Great deal.

Matched the cherry wood perfectly.

I used the FREE cut to size option and was not disappointed. The cuts and finish were better than expected, and better than I could do myself. The included FREE shipping did not hurt either!

Worked great for building a credenza. No splitting, didn't see any voids. I ordered several 2x4 sheets instead of the 4x8, it worked out cheaper with shipping. I used 3/4" and 1/2".

Both sides of the cherry veneers on this 3/4" plywood are really gorgeous. It has 7 plies: 5 thick popular veneers inside (see my photo) and 2 beautiful cherry veneers. The box arrived with the plywood sandwiched in between two sheets of corrugated cardboard, inside a large, rigid box, so the corners were totally intact. The ply between the veneers is not the firmest material, but this shouldn't matter if you're just making through cuts in the plywood. This was strong enough to use for cabinet boxes for a small dresser, and I got the 1/4" cherry plywood to use for flat panels on false drawer fronts - they were a perfect match.

I recently refaced my kitchen cabinets. The original cabinets had unfinished bottoms, which over hang a pass- through to my family room. The new cabinets have solid cherry doors and cherry veneer to the cabinet frames. The doors and the veneer are finished with a clear coat finish. I searched several online sites to find an affordable way to finish the cabinet bottoms and house LED accent lights. I found this cherry veneer plywood at Home Depot, which was the perfect product. I can not say enough about the quality of the plywood. All I had to do was cut it to size, sand it and seal it with a hand finish tongue oil. Once installed, I finished the exposed sides and ends with a cherry scribe molding. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for cabinet grade material.

The product is great. The custom cuts were right on spec. This company has been a great find.

Product was fine but the order was cut wrong. Ordered 2 PCs cut different sizes, even spelled it out on order form and received PCs the same size. Expensive and useless.

I will use these guys again…..great service here!

Excellent quality minimal voids. Veneer is very good and on both sides.

The veneer on the panel was nice, but I was disappointed in the quality of the plywood. There were quite a few large voids (single layer thick, more than 1/4” wide, multiple inches long). I had to patch these voids to prevent blow out of the veneer. The quality of the plywood itself left a lot to be desired as well. The plys had black filler throughout. I had hoped that this material would be similar to baltic birch plywood (especially at this price), but it is not.

quality of the product was good, and delivery was on time. I would use them again

The “cherry grain was poor, coulda used birch and no one would have known.

Since I don't have a vehicle to haul 4x8 plywood sheets, I have used Columbia Forest Products on a repeat basis. They will custom cut a few cuts for free which I appreciate. Also, the item are quality products.

The surface finish and color was just what I had hoped for

Expected good two sides.

Excellent! Custom cut exactly how I needed it, great customer service, great product.

4' x 24" 3/4" panel delivered with 1/4" cup along the long dimension. VERY thin surface veneer with three spots where the factory laminating adhesive came through the surface veneer and those spots would not accept stain. This was ordered to avoid a trip to my supplier to buy a full 5'x5' panel. Never again.

Was delivered in Perfect shape. I would buy this product again.

Easy to work with. Bookcase came out fantastic, finished beautifully

one big scratch on one big nick in other one not really happy but o well

Each piece was beautiful. I would purchase from Columbia Forest Products again without hesitation.

It is perfect for my furniture
