Easy to order. Arrived on time in good condition. Expensive.

one package arrived with some damage
I would have given it 5 stars, but one package arrived damaged at the edges. I am using it for the workshop, so it is ok if it has blemishes. but for such expensive plywood, i would have expected better service. i was planning to order 5 sheets, but now i am waiting a bit.

Good but not Perfect
Looks like I may be the first person to knock off a star! As a first time buyer, I was really excited about this purchase.
First the good: product arrived in perfect condition and extremely well packed. Demensions were 'right on' (three pieces cut to 20 x 60). Heavy as hell. Puts all the big box stuff to shame. Using it to build a tall chest of drawers for the shop, so it might even be overkill, but wanted to give it a try.
Now for why I took off a star: Two out of three pieces were perfect, flat and one side with no 'footballs' (repairs). The third piece had a significant bow in it and repairs on both side, so there was no way to hide this on the inside of the cabinet but because its the back I figured what the heck. However, even after puting spacers under the piece and about 100lbs of weight on the top side for about 24 hrs, it still had a slight bow. Made getting all sides to line up properly a little more challenging. Thank god for good clamps!
Overall, I would rate this as a superior product especially if you're building really good furniture. For around the shop you may get away with the big box stuff and a nice face frame.

The plywood is quite good but actually a bit thinner than 3/4" as it is metric. Use a circular blade made exclusively for plywood and clean the gack from the blade teeth which comes from the lamination process. Would buy more if needed.
