Not DIY and miss represented product and install experience
I will be honest, based on the reviews, online tutorials and instructions I thought it would be a lot easier. First, you cannot use a utility knife to cut... please. And you need a saw and good measuring skills. The wood breaks a lot!!!!! It’s horrible to work with. I used a jigsaw and because of the pre-stick on the back it got caught up a lot causing cracking in the planks. Some planks just split in half. The second order... almost all the boards were bowed. Because I already started my wall I couldn’t stop... but you cannot flatten a bow so they pop off the wall. It’s horrible. Then, to take the sticky adhesive strip off to get it ready to stick on the wall is hard... often when trying to do it take the whole sticky price off... horrible experience. I need to buy wood glue to stick some boards down that were warped. I get not a perfect product but so many warped boards that then split in half is not acceptable. I worked with it because I was stuck!!! No pun inteneded... I need to buy more just to finish the job. It is not a weekend job and a lot more work than they falsely advertise. Look twice before buying this product or be sure to have a handy person around and really decent saw or you will have the same issues as me. I changed the blades many times... mess.
