Home Depot, Rona, Lowes all have terrible reviews revolving around the quality of their wood. Where else can you go?

I'm looking to build a floating deck.

Have you had a look at it? I’ve been looking for some big stuff (6x6 ground contact) recently and Lowes seems to actually have the nicest wood of the lot. HD on the other hand had some junk.

Lowes was also cheaper that the lumber yards round here (by about 15-30%).

I've gotten good lumber from both Home Hardware and Castle recently out at the cottage. They're pretty big out in the rural areas.

With the lockdown, cant take a look at it before purchasing....maybe it would be better just to wait until next week
