Anyone ever used this stuff? The kind you can get at Lowe's/HD.

It's about 5$ for a 16x16 piece. I have a small section to cover. Thoughts?

I have about 9 ft of it 2 panels high set up like a backslash between upper and lower cabinets. They work well. Think it looks better than regular pegboard would for my application in a small office/hobby area.

Thats pretty much what it's for. Did you make a frame for it?

No, it fits from the top of the base units to the bottom of the top cabinets and pretty much wall to wall. I just screwed them to the wall. I just took a look and they aren't two high, I have only one row. The ones I have are 16x16.

I haven't seen it, but it does sound interesting.

I can believe it looks better then regular pegboard. Does it come in big sheets or just the little squares.

Little squares. It already has stand-offs in it, you just need to put them on the wall and mount I think.

I bought a pair of the black 23.5" x 32" panels from these guys, and used one of them in my welding supplies cabinet:

It is very solid and sturdy, and panel is molded with a webbed backing that acts as a standoff. The perimeter has sufficient screw holes to support just about anything.
