I just want to see an article with a review of Ondura roofing; considering buying it for a roof on a cabin at a wilderness retreat.

I'm sorry to say I've never heard anything good about it as far as durability, and the few that have used it around me, after looking at their roofs I'd not waste my money on it.

It's a formed ribbed giant tar shingle, it has no real support to the ribs. The sun and weather & wind and snow just kinda wears it down quickly......

Good metal tin will last your lifetime, and will seem a _lot_ cheaper about 10 years from now........

My opinion, worth what you paid, since I acknoledge I never used the product myself.

I'll offer the same comment; top to bottom. I didn't think the stuff was made any more.

I didn't think it was made anymore either. 30 years ago, I remember using it to repair a cheap rental house a relative owned.

I would not use it for a roof. I know of a pole building that has it on the sides, it's been on about 20 yrs, but looks really bad. Has some holes in it.
