Solid
Having not used cedar before in any of my projects, I decided to build a bench which I used this cedar post for the legs. Wood was straight and solid and the selection was great in my local store.

Great purchase
These cedar 4x4 posts were easy to cut, drill and screw into. They also look great as the main focal point of my patio roof frame. Since they aren't pressure treated and saturated with liquid chemicals, they did soak up a lot more stain than the other pressure treated lumber I used on this project. Be aware that they are rough sawn and do not have the same outside dimensions as standard PT 4x4's (these measured 3.75" x 3.75"). Most "standard" hardware such as post bases and caps won't fit. I went with a 2 piece style post base to compensate for the difference,

surprisingly these werent that bad
Ok these werent terrible, most were still pretty water logged, but they were straight and not in too bad of shape. They get a 3* for the rest of their products though and for me having to dry out the wood for about 2 weeks. Put a fan on it or cover it with the tarps you sell, do something atleast because your wood is soaked!
