Customer Reviews for Columbia Forest Products 1/2 in. x 2 ft. x 8 ft. PureBond White Oak Plywood Project Panel (Free Custom Cut Available)

Beautiful white oak veneer plywood. Free custom cuts allowed me to complete my project without needing a table saw.

1/2in. X 2ft. X 4ft. White Oak Plywood This white oak panel is simply outstanding!! The panel was well packaged and arrived in perfect condition. While I normally expect a few end voids even in really nice plywood I was unable to find any on this piece. I have never seen a four foot piece of ply that was any flatter than this or any nicer. I would feel comfortable using this for almost any project. This piece has a very nice grain to it and with the correct stain you could use it to imitate many different types of wood. While I am not a furniture maker or fine craftsman I still appreciate a really nice board, if you are looking for a piece of white oak I can not imagine you being unhappy with this. Pros: Flat Beautiful No end voids Cons: None

The major quality of this plywood is in its finish: the grains look and feel nice. The color is much more pale than on the picture, which gives to the panel kind of an "Arctic" feel. The veneer is nonetheless on the thin side. Despite the thin veneer, It is nonetheless easy get a clean cut: I got some very decent results with a Ryobi jigsaw and Bosch blades (Clean Woods). With half an inch thick, it is pretty solid - fine to walk on -, and can therefore be used in a wide range of applications.

Received my two 1/2'' x 2' x 4' panels today. Both had damage. The first one looks like someone dragged it across the stack of wood below it. Had a 23" rub mark across the grain. Back (B) has pits with black something in them. The second panel had delamination on A side. B side had same pits as 1st. panel. Home Depot couldn't reach Mr. Thomason on the phone at Columbia Forest Products, Vendor. Project date was promised by May 8th. I really dislike putting my name on the line when other people could care less about their product quality. Hmmm!

The board was very smooth and had beautiful grain for staining.

Just what I was looking for.

The products were “premium” but standing on racks lengthwise, for what appears to be years, warped every piece. I can bend these into a fit, but really, you store 2x4’s better than this stuff.

Simply a very nice product, as advertised. Used as the panel for the frame and panel top of a toy box.

The plywood will be perfect for my project: it's going to be the back on a bookshelf I'm building. The product looks good, with interesting grain. I would note that one of the panels came to me with minor damage (a small dent and something that looks like water staining), but I can work around this, i.e. I can cut that part of the panel off and everything will be fine. All in all I'm pleased with the panels.

It only had white oak on 1 side the other side had red oak. The side which I needed was white oak and that had a scratch a crossed it. Otherwise It looks really nice

Looks nice. But weak core. I used them to make drawers. I cut 1/4" dados to join the sides, but several pieces broke off and I had to reglue them on.

Plywood shipped well protected and ingot shape.

great personal service and follow up

It was a great quality piece of wood to finish my work bench. Size was right and shipped to store was convenient.

Arrived on time, pickup was easy and looks beautiful

I ordered this white oak 3 different times. 1st one was perfect, exactly what I ordered. The second and third time I received Mystery wood, have no clue what Species they are. Would not order again.

Very happy with our purchase, highly recommend, and would definitely buy again. I had some questions about the cuts I needed and corresponded with Columbia Forest Products via email prior to my purchase which was a tremendous help. Unfortunately they are unable to make any angled cuts. The cuts I did order were exact and clean and the oak veneer is beautiful.

Quality materials, shipped super fast! The free cuts were perfect! Will def. buy again!

Very nice oak plywood, almost perfectly cut (one dimension slightly small but OK). A very small comment: the person on the saw could have cut one of the two required pieces to be clear of blemishes had he planned for wastage slightly differently. Packing was superb and order was filled very quickly without any major complaints. Would definitely order again.

Nice grain and well made. Was nicely packed and arrived without damage.

High quality plywood. The cuts were perfect. Exactly what I needed for my DIY project.

The product was mishandled as all four corners were very rounded off. A fragile package should have been handled with more care so the the full dimensional square could have been used. It had to be shortened to make the corners as they should have been and it made one of the all shorter that we had intended. The product was beautiful until it came to the corners. Quit the disappointment. S F Monson

Both panels came from the same flitch which was great but the way they were bookmatched created a big contrast in their lightness value and looked a bit odd. They were also positioned on their substrates a bit differently which made it challenging when laying out 4 large cabinet doors. Overall quality was good though.
