At first I thought I received the wrong item in that the Knot White boards that I ordered do not have one knot in them! I still like the look of these boards, but they are a bit less distressed than I had anticipated. The room photo clearly shows knots in the wood whereas the the up close photo shows a clear wood with a white wash which is more accurate. I plan to use these boards as a back wall in my laundry closet with two rustic timber shelves hung on this paneling with wrought iron brackets. I think this paneling will highlight the shelve snicely as I had planned. I hope to use other colors elsewhere in my shore house. A great product!  Pros: The boards are solid wood and feel very sturdy. Cons: Not as shown on the website room photo. Also, I had to sign for the order when delivered. The Fed Ex man told me that he could not have left them if I wasn't home. Just a heads up.
