Knape & Vogt John Sterling Heavyweight Diamond Plate Steel Pegboard, 16 by 32-Inch

No issues with durability. I’ve put heavy powered tools on it with no issues. I’m in Houston where it’s hot and humid and no rust.

I love it it was quick delivery and easy to install with anchors into drywall but I didn't realize until after all of that I needed a Square Hole Pegboard, sheesh. I was clicking the links from the page I had bought the $40 shelf and didn't notice the change from square to peg. My bad. But it looked great and as always Amazon came through now I am having difficulty finding just 1 metal square pegboard that looks similar. I guess I'll have to return both and start over but I really liked them both.

I have used these pegboards in two different garage/house setups and have generally been very happy with it. If you line up the mounting with wall studs and use at least 6 screws for the 32 inch long option, it is very robust and can handle a fair amount of weight. It is a vast improvement vs the plastic interlocking panels which warp with any heat in a garage or masonite. I have spray painted all of my panels with automotive primer which really makes them look quite good while also reducing the risk of rust (highly recommend considering doing this vs the galvanized look).Now for the caveats - these are going to get poorly packaged. They are long, thin, and are heavier. Anything like this from Amazon is a gamble as it will likely not be packaged to prevent transit damage. The positive - it is metal so you can bend it back with a pliers (also another reason to paint). They also have a slight bow in the middle by design - which flattens if they are properly attached to the wall. The second, more annoying part is that Amazon's pricing on these is awful. You can buy these at a major hardware retailer in the midwest for $20/panel for the 16x32. They used to be priced closer to this on Amazon (~23) but have gone up considerably. If you have a larger project, tracking these down elsewhere at the current pricing is warranted ($30+). I just had 3 shipped from the retailer and it was less costly/better packaged. I deducted a star because of this. I know that is not necessarily the product's fault but it reduces the value proposition.

Excellent quality for the price. One corner was a little bent, but was easily bent back into place. I read other views with the same problem . I also read where the metal was thin, though it's not as thick as actual diamond plate, it's a lot thicker than I expected.It really is actually pretty good and would give it an A+. Is there better? Absolutely, but not at this price.

I can't recommend this. It arrived just a moment ago. The shipping box was perfectly fine - zero damage. Upon opening the box, however, I noticed multiple dents in the sides of the shrink wrapped panel. That tells me it left the manufacturer this way which suggests a lapse in quality control. Additionally, the panel is twisted/warped. The metal is rather thin, too. Let's say it was damaged in shipping. If it can't survive shipping then how is it going to hold up in a workshop? I'm not sure what thickness/gauge it is but I'll get my caliper and check later. Ultimately, I returned this.

Looks good in my garage

I bought three of these and now my shed has lots of room with no garden tools on the floor! Very strong and sturdy!! Very satisfied!

While it does look nice as pictured, the metal used is not exactly what I would call "heavyweight"-- rather, "medium-weight". Granted, for the price paid, I didn't expect something industrial duty. However, because of this (lack of) weight, the boards are prone to warping and bending under small amounts of weight (for example, four of them leaned up against each other in the shipping carton). The biggest part of this issue is not the actual warp of the panel, but rather, the warping of the folded section of metal that should be perpendicular to the wall when hung, which more or less will keep the whole panel warped unless fixed. This CAN be done, but it's a pain.The next issue I have with these panels is the "included hanging hardware"-- which translates to six sheet rock screws that absolutely WOULD NOT hold ANY type of weight of tools without anchors. Fortunately, I purchased mine to use as magnetic bulletin boards, but despite the fact that they will not hold much weight, I am STILL considering using some anchors on general principle.So they lose points on weight and hardware-- but as I mentioned, they do look sharp, and they are (properly hung) quite functional. Had I not purchased these on a day when they were about 30% off the price I first saw, I would likely have given them fewer stars-- but can accept this as "you get what you pay for".
