HUGE disappointment. Here is fair warning to all..
Incredibly poor quality with plastic look and feel. The joints are horribly obvious no matter how tightly you assemble them. The plastic-type spray coating peels away easily. I can not believe those in charge of this company can sleep at night knowing they are robbing people of their time and money. I am very familiar with injection molding and believe the cost to stamp out and spray one of these panels has to be around $5ea. Alas, there's a sucker born every minute and I was one!

Can this product be painted?
I need an off white faux column 7 ‘ tall. I will use 3 to stack and whitewash them if possible to paint them.

Yes, they can be painted. We suggest using a water based flat latex water based paint. Our paint is through Sherwin Williams.

Very happy with this product!
I recently installed intercom‘s for the main gate to my property. I want my column to be 5 feet tall. Are used four 4 x 4 posts at 6’ that are pressure-treated for my framing. I then wrapped my posts in half-inch plywood. I put the posts a foot into the ground and used concrete. Installation of the column wrap was very easy, I use my circular saw to cut out the column wrap for the housing unit of my intercom. I also purchased the capstone from next stone which I used glue to secure to my column. I spent maybe a total of four hours to install two columns of the same dimensions using this column wrap. Looks really good

Amazing!
This product is amazing. The siding on my column was old enough that I couldn't find any replacement pieces for one that was broken. This was a great solution for covering the damage and adds a lot of character to the column besides.

Thank you for your Review. We look at EACH and EVERY Review seriously.
This is not a Styrofoam. It is a manufactured using a composite polyurethane product. This information is noted in all vendor sites under Product Information.
Again, thank you for your review

Very cheap quality
I was expecting it to look like stone for the price. Each piece is just a big piece of plastic. No realism at all. We ordered onyx, which was much darker than it looked online. But that’s irrelevant anyways as these are going right back. Not worth the price tag.

Thank you for your Review.
This is a Polyurethane product (a form of plastic). The description on all vendor sites does state this. Your note says your ordered Onyx, but the description above shows Pewter.

Product was very nice.Color was a little darker than pictured.I had to return it due to it not fitting for the application that I wanted to use it for.This is only meant to go around a 15 and 7/8 pillar and my pillar was 17.5 inches.Nice product would recommend if you have an inside measurement of 15 and 7/8 inch pillar to cover!

There are no gray tones. The whole column is plain black. I was expecting some variations in tone like the pictures.

The Onyx Post Cover is many black, but there are some brown tones. its best to request a sample from your vendor. they can contact us directly.

These are made out of very cheap material - like foam. They will definitely fade in the sun after a short period of time. You need to purchase the cap separately. Will be returning.

Wow so sorry to hear you are not happy with the product. NextStone is made with an in-mold coating to prevent fading and comes with a 20 year warranty that covers fading. Also the listing on Home Depot does clearly state the caps are sold separately. Sorry you're returning but the product is well liked :)

It. did not meet my expectations. The image showed a completed column and top, I only got the column which means I would have to spend extra money for the top. Already the column was too much money for the type of material makeup.

These styrofoam columns are absolutely not worth $140 a piece. Not an easy alternative like it’s supposed to be, still have to assemble a wood column and then glue the cheap pieces on it.

Yes the Column Wraps are just "Wraps" and not full columns. The composite polyurethane (not Styrofoam) interlocking panels can be glued however it is recommended to be screwed in. Thank you for your feedback!
