NEXTSTONE STACKED STONE (BEDFORD CHARCOAL) FAUX STONE SIDING PANEL (5-PACK): EXCELLENT CHOICE! We had been looking at this product for well over a year, but could not seem to obtain enough information about it until we contacted NextStone directly. NextStone is headquartered in Denver, and their specialist, Andrea McGrath, hit it out of the park by providing us with the utmost stellar customer support! Andrea was kind enough to send product samples of various gray/black background color combinations to our local Home Depot, and after leaning the samples up against our new exterior paint color (and when considering our newly installed blended color cement roof), we immediately placed our order for the Bedford Charcoal faux stone product. Ms. Ryan at Store 6329 was extremely helpful in assisting us with our on-line order, and the product arrived on time, as promised, well packed, and in excellent condition. Installation was relatively hassle free, as the instructions were thorough, and the product was very easy to cut to our own specifications. Our objective was to perform a DIY update to our front elevation (which is a one-dimensional facade), which meant that we needed to source some edging locally. Instead of using stainless steel metal edging, we opted to use standard plastic paver edging (from Home Depot), only because the metal was not sufficient to house the depth of this stacked stone product. First, the edging was installed to the exterior cement fronts, and was applied along each border (all tops/sides/bottoms). Tap-cons were used in each hole of the edging to ensure stability and integrity. We then laid out all of the panels in our driveway because we noticed a very slight but discernible color variation among the individual panels within the 5-count boxes. We were able to successfully match up the pieces before we affixed them within the edging borders, in order to avoid any issues with said variations. The instructions specifically indicate that the panels are to be exposed to the same temperature where they are to be installed, so once we matched them up, we immediately removed them from the driveway due to the excessive Florida heat. Each panel fit quite well into the other, much like puzzle pieces, so NextStone does a fabulous job with quality control. We used a new type of adhesive caulk, thanks to the sage advice from Home Depot's paint department staff, and used many clamps to ensure a proper grab of the adhesive to the cement wall. We also used waterproof black caulk (again, from Home Depot), and filled in each of the tiny visible gaps along each border edge. The entire project, from start to finish, took around a half-day, but the end result will last a lifetime! We could not be happier with the support and products from both NextStone and Home Depot, as our circa 1990's home looks like a new build, and is now the envy of the neighborhood! We have had this product for over a month now, and it is now abundantly clear that it is impervious to the Florida rains! In fact, before adhering the first panel piece, we tested the product by running a garden hose over the top...it is completely waterproof, straight out of the box! Also, in keeping with the black border theme, we removed the aged no-dig plastic cobblestone landscape borders and installed new black 5" flat rubber landscape border material that Home Depot just added to their product assortment. After excavating the soil, we also used tap-cons along the driveway edge for added stability, backfilled the void with paver sand, applied fresh mulch, and finished it off with black caulk to extend its useful life! Voila...everything now blends perfectly! Suffice it to say, we would HIGHLY recommend NextStone's faux stone product assortment, as it, hands down, exceeds all of our original expectations!

Extremely easy to work with. A perfect look.

Color way off. Doesn't look like pic.

this product delivered the results i wanted. covered an older wood frame house. used it partially up, to look like brick with wood. created great curb appeal. house is a corner lot. it made it stand out. thanks. was easy for my non-pro husband to do the job

Looks great once installed. A little difficult to cut angles due to uneven surface. Had to return 2 boxes due to damage during shipment.

I purchased this product for an interior bathroom project. After ordering and receiving the product it was determined that it would not be recommended to install it behind the sink. Due to the area the "Foam" panels would not hold up in that location. As for the product itself it is a good option and quality product just not for my application.

Looks realistic and easy to install.

Easy to assemble and looks real.

Some of the stones did not match up very well. But we made it work.

Color was far darker than shown in pictures and was not accurate in looking like real stone.

The colors were much darker than the picture

Did not care for the fake stone look.

Looks good, easy install.

extremely easy to work with. Being a contractor remodeling large stores and malls we use all different types of finishes. This product will be one I would recommend to our design team in the future. downside to this product is the standard size. Larger panel size would make for less seams/joints.

Order was shipped quickly but I was very disappointed with the color which was nothing like online image or sandy buff descriptor. Color is actually a dull monotone grey and the entire order was returned.

Looks sort of like siding instead of stacked stone. Dimensions given are for total size and not coverage area. So need more panels to cover areas. Easy to install.

Product had good color and was easy to relatively easy to install. Fit up between the panels left some small gaps... need caulk to fill. Finding the matching ledgerstone took some hunting... a link would be helpful... also to the matching touch up paint. I had to order another complete pack of the panels and the ledgerstones when only needed one more of each. Would be good if smaller quantities or customizable quantities were available even with a small premium for odd lots.

I was disappointed in the color that showed up on site, I was expecting a lighter shade as depicted by the on-line photos. It was extremely frustrating to line up the tabbed ends and maintain the top edge level. The finished product shows gaps at the tabs because the tabs do not line up. The pieces were outside, and acclimated according to the instructions. The Ledger pieces were molded with an upturn at the left end, making it impossible to match the adjoining Ledger piece. I set out some Ledger pieces in the 90 deg sun with weights on them, trying to level some out. That didn't work, so I have wavy ledgers.

Picked up product and half of one box of panels were cracked. Aside from that they of poor quality and scratched.

This product was very easy to work with it was nice looking and easy to install. I would use it again. the helpers at the home depot were very helpful and organized they did an excellent job

+Very easy to install. -Does not look real. -Expands and contracts too much between cool nights and warm days...leaves gaps.
