We got all our unfinished trim here. Price was a lot better then Menards. We purchased trim, baseboard, corner blocks, under-band, crown molding, rosettes, stair boards, and handrails. We were able to purchase some "seconds" that were in good shape and really cheap for some extra things we were doing. We get many compliments on the beautiful trim in our house. Would definitely go back to American Millwork if we needed more.
