Crane BellaStone

HomeSealed

Has anybody used the Bella Stone product from Crane? We had a rep visit recently and the stuff looks pretty interesting. I'm just wondering how it is to install and if anyone has had experience good or bad

i have seen it. its very nice stuff but expensive. it actaully feels like its real. very nice.

ive never used it either it has a stone dust coating jmo the stone type panels have a repeating pattern that kind of gives it away also i would just use it where real stone would be used not in gables or on dormers or going up rakes

I know what you mean with the repeating pattern. I've seen a couple shots of entire homes done with it and I'm not crazy about it, but I think it really looks awesome in smaller spots where stone would normally be used. It actually has an insulating value of R4 too. I probably sound like a company rep or something, I'm just waiting for the opportunity to sell some.

personally i think its a sellable product ( is sellable even a word).
i woulk not want to use more than 3 or 4 squares of it in one place .it can complement some vinyl siding. i did that with a nail lite product,it was fake brick and ugly as hell but this indian couple wanted it. i used cedar baords and then 3 sq of this fake vinyl brick. it was a rather small area but did'nt look as bad as i thought it would. this new crane product is much nicer and realistic but i would still limit its use to no more than 4 sq area.
