Lighweight but with really ugly patches
This stuff is lightweight but beware, The sheet I got (4 pcs 24x46") had a lot of ugly knot hole patches - one piece on both faces. I don't necessarily dislike knots but the large knots are dark yet filled with a light-colored patch material that is so ugly that you can only cut around or hide them. Okay for shop furniture or if you plan to paint it.

So glad I found this stuff. It's so light and solid. Couldn't ask for anything better IMO.

Knots in patches in face veneer
It's not awful plywood by any means, albeit very lightweight, and certainly beats big box stores in terms of quality and flatness... **Except** that they say explicitly in the description "[b]est of all the face veneer is a clean, white birch that's free of patches, knots and blemishes." If only...
Of the six 20"x30" panels I ordered, four had patches and/or knots (generally both, with filler applied to the chipped-out knots -- I'd add photos, but that doesn't appear to be an option for reviews for some reason).
In any case, it's disappointing and not true to their word in the slightest. I'd happily have paid a bit more for a better product if it meant getting truly clean faces. As it stands, I'm not sure what this product is useful for; I'd certainly be fine with the knots and filled bits if it was for a cabinet carcass/interior, but these are pre-cut panels 24"x46" at biggest. Maybe drawer boxes or painted pieces (prime and sand well, though).

Nice Birch ply, came too big
This is beautiful stuff. The only complaint I have is it came almost a half inch wider than advertised so I still had to cut it. I sent them an email about it, and they did apologize and gave me a $20 credit to use on my next order. Nice gesture, but still annoyed.

Great product great service
The plywood worked out great!! I didn't like what I was getting at the big home improvement store and it was a pain anyway. Definitely like that I can get the size I want shipped right to my house.

Cabiet project
Enjoyed building my garage cabinets with this plywood. Liked how light it is, as I work alone in my shop. Made it easy. Used dados and rabbets, glue and brads. Came out very sturdy

premcore plus ply
Three of the 4 pieces were in excellent condition. The 4th one had a few knots. They were small, but still not as perfect as I was led to believe. On all four pieces the edges and corners were perfect though.
