Tool Review: Great product, but 3's the limit???
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife wanted me to 'clean up the garage', and after searching around for shelves, tool hangers, etc. I came across this stuff... and got real carried away. I decided I wanted to do three whole walls with these panels, so I attempted to order a large quantity (I edited my purchase to put down more than 3, but it limited me to three on checkout). I placed the order anyway, then figured I could continue placing orders for three additional sets. But no, Amazon keeps track of your orders, and will only let you order three... EVER. So I looked around online for places to order more, and actually found a better deal elsewhere and tried to cancel my Amazon order, but it was too late - they were already processing the order. So BEWARE, IF YOU NEED MORE THAN THREE OF THESE TWO-PACKS.
Anyway, I received my panels from Amazon, and am still waiting for another 21 sets from another source. The paneling looks great (it's just extruded grayish PVC), and I can't wait to hang it when I receive the rest of my panels. It's interesting that the rear of the panels seems smoother than the front, which has some imperfections in the extrusion (like really tiny grooves). From more than a couple feet away it's not really apparent, so it's more of an observational note than a complaint.
The product seems extremely sturdy, and the cross-sectional material thickness is over 1/4 inch! I have no qualms about hanging heavy items on this stuff. The accessory hangers I ordered are truly heavy-duty, well-made hangers. This is seriously good stuff (I guess it ought to be for the price). I figure it's a one-time expense for the home I will probably die in, so why not do it right?
I guess the only negative comment I can make without having installed it yet is that I think the panels should come with enough color-matched screws to attach them according to specification on 16" centers. Maybe they aren't included because people have commented that they are poor quality and easily stripped. I plan on getting some square-head deck screws to attach my panels anyway, and if I get anal about it I'll paint the heads when I finish the installation :)
