Sweet Georgia Pine make this and easy choice, precision cut makes the job go smooth. Stair treads nail on with ease, and the project even amazed my wife. ( Now is that alone worth the price ) No cutting required, project assembled in great time.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Nick Save so much time
These save so much time as opposed to cutting your own stringers. Of course there are certain instances when a pre-cut stringer cannot be used, but if applicable to your project i would recommend picking up these from the home depot. They are accurately cut & extremely well priced. My only complaint would be that occasionally you will find a couple on shelves that are a little warped or crooked but thats the nature of wood just be sure to pick a nice straight one

Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by Ben I really wanted a challenge putting my deck stairs on
Executive Summary: Not quality, frustrating, but will do if you're up for a challenge to mending wood and doing some math.
The pieces arrived in two generally beat up boxes (delivery folks weren't pleased to drop it off).
I ordered 4, one of which was not like the others but could generally work around it. A couple of treads were 1/2" deeper than others but generally usable.
A couple of them looked like they ran unevenly through a table saw. About 1/16" was cut into a side. Again, not a deal breaker but certainly not quality.
There was an uneven edge to the bottom of the stringer. Again, nothing that can't be worked around if you're up to the challenge.
I then tried to attach the hangers to them and wound up splitting the wood straight through knocking a riser off. That's because the grains are parallel to the treads which, oddly enough, is where the nails drive into. So, a little pre-drilling before nailing on others and some mending tiles on the knocked off bits, and it's solid again.
So, if you're wondering why I didn't return them. Boxes were too beat up to re-use, I don't have a car to transport, and, before this experience I imagined this is always how it goes.
Now I've learned better: When in doubt, return it.
Thanks for the learning experience.

Rated 1.0 out of 5.0 by RH These stringers don't meet code.
Be absolutely sure to check local building codes before buying any stingers from HD. These stringers are made from 2X10s resulting in not enough wood between the back of the stringer and the tread/riser joint. They need to be made from 2X12's. I have to completely rebuild my stairs to pass inspection now. A huge loss of time and money as HD won't give the dimension of this most critical area. See attached photo. HD's stringers are about 4 1/2" in this area.

I bought two stringers to repair an old garage 2 step staircase. The stringers are solid and look great, as well. Both stringers measured exact which made the job easier.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by James Much easier than cutting your own.
I needed 7-step stringers for my new deck, so I had to buy the 8-step and cut one off. That's the only issue I had with these stringers. They were straight with only a couple small knots. They went up easily, taking deck screws well without predrilling and there was no splitting. They took the deck stain well and should last many years.
