Customer Reviews for Pavestone 4 in. x 11.75 in. x 6.75 in. Oaks Blend Concrete Retaining Wall Block (144 Pcs. / 46.5 sq. ft. / Pallet)

Installed these bricks in a new retaining wall recently. Good color and consistent size and shape. These came on a pallet of 144, so the back lip on a few of them were not fully in tact, but that's not particularly surprising considering loading/unloading and moving the pallet. It didn't end up being a problem for the installation. The one item I will note with these is in regards to shipping them. If ordered in a pallet, bear in mind it is a 3000+ pound pallet and you won't be able to move it with a standard vehicle. Plan accordingly. In my case I ordered home delivery. The first company that attempted to deliver the product did not place the pallet on a truck that could actually get it off and a truck with a forklift had to be sent out to deliver the pallet. Just keep that in mind when determining how to get the product if ordering a full pallet.

I'm a 67 yr.-old grandma and I can build a short wall with these. I chose a color to go with my brick and I use flat patio blocks as a base to hook the lip of the bottom block over and keep it steady.

My pond used to have a beautiful sandy beach that was separated from the lawn by landscape timbers. Five years ago the whole area was badly damaged in a flood. I was about to just give it up, take out the wood that was still there and let it all go to grass (and weeds). Then I saw these wall blocks on sale at Home Depot and I knew that I had the answer to my problem. Compared to similar blocks at Menards they were of much higher quality for about the same price. The H.D. Blocks were solid concrete and weighed over 23 pounds each. The other ones were hollow inside and significantly lighter. Furthermore, I wasn't sure how many I might have to cut in half to build the wall correctly, would the hollow parts show outward? This wall will last forever once I finish leveling out the blocks and glue it altogether with landscape adhesive. To finish the scene I have bags of white play sand that will look great with the red blocks and green grass. This has been an excellent project because I have been able to work on it when I have had the time. Summer is here now and we are almost finished and ready to enjoy this play area once again. I used the blocks to also make a large burn pit in the middle of the beach. "IT'S PARTY TIME, BABY!" What a great, beautiful, useable, addition to my home and property. All done at a very good price. Thank you Home Depot for all of your help! I did it!!!

concrete blocks made a perfect fire pit in our backyard as you can see he had lots of fun

This has been quite the ordeal ! First it was delivered to a different state. Then no one could give me a new purchase order # Finally a month later they said it was in Philly. I called for a delivery date and they said they can’t because they issued a lift truck and it’s too big for a lift truck ?! Someone will call me back ! I’m officially done here. This is so frustrating and disappointing. I’ve been charged and I can’t seem to get my pavers ???? Please help

I think i received a different color than what i ordered, but shape was right and so they'll work.

Used this to make several small tiered walls to re-design the usability of my front yard. These are only rated for 2-feet in height (8 rows high including buried base row). What I liked was the nude color (not grey or red) and the flatter face so it didn't create that "fabric weave" look. The lip makes stacking easy and the smaller block is obviously less heavy to manipulate. I used a masonry chisel and weighted hammer to split the blocks.

If you are looking at these. Take a moment to look elsewhere. You could be saving hundreds of dollars. Home depot has got this wrong. They need to address this quickly, or be in a hole with inventory.

So its been over a month and i never received this item

Good but delivery took over a month and I wanted to buy about 70 more stone but cannot buy in less than pallet size. Disappointing.

What a waste of time ordering online from Home Depot is. Do not have anything delivered by Home Depot. This is the third day of my time wasting away waiting on no show and no call delivery. Finally after 15 days they showed up only to have no way to unload. Home Depot contacted out the delivery to Estes and clearly both are incapable of making home deliveries

We didn’t finish install it.

That is $6.50 per pc! How come? No one asked you about this??

They’re beautiful. We went through 5 pallets. Delivery was perfect.

Very good quality stone but the color is not as white as pictured. Still a great purchase for building a retaining wall. This was the second pallet delivered by same delivery guy that delivered the first pellet. He remembered the house and where to leave the the stone, very efficient and conscientious, excellent service.

It was great and really nice however i should have noticed there were cheaper options

The product is fine....the delivery process was horrible! It took over 6 weeks before we finally received the pallet of blocks. Had to escalate to Home Depot support for assistance.

I like the look of the 'retaining wall' but disappointed in the 1 inch set back. It's weak, and a lot of the blocks have born 'set back' areas. Overall, I'm sticking with it and liked the look. I actually bought it to separate the pulverized marble/gravel in my front yard from the city sidewalk so no one walking past our home can kick gravel onto the sidewalk/street. It's doing what I wanted.

The Pavestone blocks are great Placing these changed the whole look of my front bed

I bought these retaining wall blocks and had them shipped to my house. These were very expensive because of shipped costs. When I ordered this Charcoal block with this part number 81103 I though I was getting the blocks from Katy Texas but this order came from Las Vegas Nevada. I was very disappointed because the die lot and small stones in block were different. They never said this order was coming from Pavestone company in Las Vegas vs Katy, Texas. Now I have two different charcoal blocks with different dye lot and I spent a ton of money on this.

The landscaping looks great so glad I choose this color. Have red brick front to my townhouse blends well

These are excellent retaining wall blocks. They look good and have the weight necessary to stay in place when they are installed properly. I highly recommend them.

Lots of broken blocks including the rear tab to kelp with keeping the wall stack even. Molds for pouring concrete into possibly worn out or pour quality control. Too bad as it would be high quality product otherwise.

Excellent stone and ordered to be delivered- very friendly and efficient delivery. Very satisfied with this purchase!

Excellent material easy install

The color is nothing like the pictures! It’s an ugly beige and brown with completely random patterns. The wall looks like we’ve used random pavestones from different sets

Some pavestones were not the same color as if they're weren't enough to make a complete pallet. The concrete color pavers were two layers deep.

There are no caps to the Oak Blend blocks. How are they supposed to be finished???? Very disappointing
