I purchased two units of the pegboard for my kitchen to use primarily for pots and pans. It looks great! It was not difficult to hang the metal boards, but I could not match up all the sides (and screws) on studs. I was very careful to make sure the two rows of four panels were level. I dropped a panel when trying to hold two up on the wall at the same time to look at it. It didn't do any damage to the pegboard, but I did have to patch my baseboard. It probably would have gone faster and more smoothly if two people were assembling it, but I did fine by myself.

I put this up in our walk-in pantry and it works well. I returned the first one I ordered because there was bending damage and chipped finish on two corners. The second one I ordered was better but still had the same issue. I’m not sure if it was a shipping issue or something that is happening at the factory. Neither box they came in showed any evidence of impact damage.
Before putting it up, make sure you have a good stud finder that can pinpoint where the exact center of a stud is. When the panels are mounted pushed together, the seam needs to be accurately placed over the center of the stud. That way there is room two get 6 screws (3 from each panel) into that center stud. Fortunately, the studs in the area I mounted this in were standard exactly 16 inches apart. Therefore, I was able to get the left and right sides into studs also instead of resorting to drywall anchors. The mounting holes are large enough so there is some maneuvering room with the screws and you can drill in at a bit of an angle if need be. I put this up by myself but a second set of hands would be helpful. My level has a magnet on it so I just stuck it on top of the panels while I worked.
The supplied hooks work well. Most can be moved around fairly easily but a few you have to fight with a little. One hook I had to file down slightly to get it to fit in the slot correctly. Overall, it is a bit on the expensive side for its size but it will last forever and certainly looks better than a typical peg board. I’d give it 5 stars if it weren’t for the issue with a couple of bent corners.

Materials are good and the package came with everything needed for it to work. Installing it was easy if you are handy. You will need a level, an electric drill, and a pencil.

Great product. Easy to install and they provide the strength I needed for the items attached to the hooks.
Had to adapt for the less than 16 inch mounting width, but easily overcome. Like the flexibility of the pan mounting options, have changed several times to get to my preferred design.
