2 inch walnut veneer slats with 3/8 inch spacing looked great in basement to separate entertainment area. I used a dark walnut Watko stain and the slats were perfectly cut without any scrap. My only concern in recommending the product is that I ordered 3 inch wide slats, and the company shipped 2 inch wide slats instead. They shipped more slats which allowed greater wall coverage and I actually think the project turned out better with the smaller slats, but I didn't like the arbitrary change without any prior communication.
