Tom,The wood did come in. The contractor was at the house and brought in the load. I’ve not seen it yet, but the contractor said it looks very good. I’m going to the site today and will see it first hand. Your strong customer service focus was very much appreciated. I would definitely use you again or recommend you to others. Thanks”

I have bought a fair amount of hard maple at various dimensions, and it is of excellent quality! Am using this maple for a (very) traditional set of kitchen cabinets with a leg-and-rail frame style, have been cutting dovetails and mortise-&-tenons and the wood holds together well, chisels well — I love it. (using hand tools almost entirely) The color is very light, which is exactly what I wanted to keep the kitchen on the light-color side. The wood is clear with a very few, small bows — mostly straight and true, and fully the dimensions promised.The folks I worked with at WoodVendors in ordering and delivering were very courteous and helpful — in a couple instances going the extra mile. Local lumber yards and home-type stores were not very helpful in getting hard maple to me in any quantity. As far as dimension wood, I was only finding soft maple. So needless to say, I am VERY happy with the wood, the price and the timely delivery. And yes, I will be back here, nowhere else, when I need more wood. A good product, a fair price and friendly folks — this is the way business ought to be done! Thanks.”

The Lyptus lumber exceeded expectations. You should have heard the carpenters as they unloaded it; they were quite impressed! The order was right – lengths and amount as requested at a very reasonable price. I expect very little (if any) waste with this shipment. It arrived on time, when you said it would, in great condition. Thanks for being such a knowledgeable and helpful guide through the process of finding and ordering the right stuff. You always made time for me, and my many questions. I hope WoodVendors knows how lucky they are to have you! Your time and genuine interest in matching good customer service to a quality product is exceptional in today’s business environment! Your knowledge of wood species, cuts, suppliers and your helpful recommendations have made this project much easier. So glad I found you and WoodVendors when I did; I could have made costly mistakes, had delays and received inferior wood had I dealt with anyone else! Please feel free to give my email addrss or phone number as a reference, and use my comments as you like. You have made all the difference!”

Purchased 5/4 and 8/4 Quarter sawn White Oak with specific lengths and widths. The lumber arrived on time with no surprises with plenty of clear stock that is actually of better quality than I expected. I will definitely use Wood Vendors again and would recommend to others”.

Tom, Overall, I am satisfied with the Alder wood I ordered from you. However, I do have one piece that happens to be the largest, that is approximately 10″ wide by 8′ that is nearly unusable. It is very warped. I would rate the lumber a 4. If it wasn’t for that one piece, I’d rate it 5. Thanks”

The 6/4 Lyptus was better than I expected (only 1 board had a knot in it). The delivery was smooth and the best part is that even my wife is happy with it!”

Received the Wenge and everything looks great. The 8/4 looks slightly lighter than the 4/4 but will see as it becomes more exposed to the air. Thanks for your great work.”

The alder looks great! It was well packaged and shipped 2 weeks ahead of schedule. Minor end checking and cracking, like you said, all within the trim ends. Quality is excellent, way better than I expected. Thanks, I’m passing the word around to the local builders and lumberyards.”
