Easy on line ordering. I will called it to the Seattle distribution so no shipping costs = Woot!
Pricing was good.
Got it all in less than a week!
I ordered a sheet of 3/4 #9 expanded metal, flattened, for a shelf. My local suppliers did not have what I was looking for, and Online Metals came in clutch once again. It arrived in a couple of days, and was packaged very well. It says on the custom cut page, that their cuts are +/-. 125". In my experience, they always cut to far tighter tolerances than that. This sheet measured dead on and fit like a glove.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Steven! We're thrilled that the sheet fit perfectly and arrived quickly—that’s exactly the quality and service we strive to provide every time. We truly appreciate your continued trust and support.
As a returning long-time customer, I thank Online Metals and the staff for their vast product selection, very reasonable/discounted prices, easy ordering and fast order processing.

I have purchased from online metals many times over the past few years. Their selection, service and pricing is excellent. The only thing I would say is if the shipping pricing is high if possible try a different size, I believe oversized shipping get very expensive. I was buying aluminum sheets and wanted to buy a little extra. Shipping came out to be very expensive, almost the cost of the sheet. I went down by 1 foot in one dimension and the shipping cost decreased by more then 50%. I know its not the fault of OnlineMetals, it's just the cost of shipping. However, it would be helpful if OnlineMetals would notify a customer which sizes are oversized when looking at sizes. With this being said, I have been happy with my experiences and I'm sure I will be ordering from them again.
Hi Andrew, thanks for being a loyal customer and for sharing this insightful feedback! We understand how shipping costs on oversized items can add up, and your suggestion to highlight these size thresholds is really helpful—we’ll look into making this clearer at checkout to make your experience even smoother. Looking forward to helping you with your next order!
The order was delivered on time. However, one end of the package was completely open. All ordered contents were present.
Thank you for highlighting the prompt delivery, Hans, and we're sorry to hear about the packaging issue. We appreciate your understanding and will share your feedback with our fulfillment team to improve quality control. Please don’t hesitate to reach out anytime if we can assist more or make your future orders even better.

I contacted the company via online chat. I had fantastic service. I could tell right away that I was actually chatting with a knowledgeable person located in the United States. I got a quote that was delivered to both my email as well as an account I created on the site. I started to initiate the purchase when at the last minute, I realized that I had given the wrong dimensions. I called the company and asked for the person with whom I was chatting. Guess what? That person, I think her name is Sharrell, spoke with me, made the adjustments and resent the quote. The product arrived within days. It arrived packaged perfectly. And speaking of perfect, it was. In fact the ent.ire experience was perfect (with the exception of my measuring skills). This is my third order from Online Metals over a several year time-frame. Each experience was fantastic
Terry, thank you so much for sharing your kinds words and for being a valued repeat customer. We're thrilled to hear Sharrell provided you with excellent service and that the process was smooth from start to finish. Supporting like you means the world to us, and we’re always here whenever you need!
