            panels were in the room and mildewed
            I bought these to use for the underlayment before I put down the new flooring. These were recommended by the sales person at Home Depot, it all mildewed before I could use them.

            Please go to the store they were purchased from and get a refund and give them my contact info for a credit.

            I just need a copy of the receipt, a pic of the mildew on the panel and if possible the information from the label on the back. Taraca
              This stuff is crap
              The veneer lifted off of the panels as soon as I started to work with them. This is crap--the worse plywood I've ever worked with and I have over 40 years experience as a finish carpenter and cabinetmaker.

                Delaminating edges
                Bought this as a economical alternative to luan and am very disappointed. Some edges are delaminating and soft which is not good for a glue down vinyl plank installation. Will have to cut out the soft spots and fill with Ardex.

                  This wood is good because it’s basically water proof and it is good for anything.

                    Fake shiplap dream!
                    I use this to make fake shiplap. I started with the popular method of cutting strips. But i have created a better method that works in most applications. I use a mini circular saw to cut channels (deep enouch but not too deep) to simulate the lines of shiplap. Then i put up the whole sheet. Love it!

                      I'm sure it's great for the intended purpose . I use it for drawer bottoms and the back of small storage chests so it would be nice if the outer layers were a bit thicker . It still works good just don't sand it very much .

                      I do like this stuff - though I've never used it for underlayment. I've used it for floating panels in fairly fine cabinetry, because it's inexpensive and there's often interesting figure - just don't do more than barely sand it - the top veneer is thin and the glue is often red!I also use it to make lightweight wooden storage bins to go on shelves, with 1x2s and 3/4" flat-head screws.

                      Underlayment (Common: 7/32 in. x 4 ft. x 8 ft.; Actual: 0.196 in. x 48 in. x 96 in.) We used this underlayment for a new floor in our foyer. We replaced some pretty hefty tile with laminate flooring, thus needing a new solid/flat floor to attach it to. It is lightweight, but very strong and smooth, easy to cut and nail. It was used on an area approximately 8 X 14. Also reasonably priced. We have used this same product for numerous projects in our home and will continue to.

                      I did not use this for my floor, this is now my ceiling in my living area and I absolutely love it. I chose not to paint it, leaving in its natural state. It goes will with my walls, an unique solution to a weight limit for me. Again, it is so amazing, be happy to share pictures of how it turned out.
