Durability

As we know, pegboard can't measure up to either type of slatwall panel when it comes to durability. Even buying a harder-to-find tempered pegboard won't give the same durability as slatwall garage wall panels.

Ease of installation

Pegboard can be installed more easily than slatwall. When wall panels are installed, you'll need to account for various wall obstructions. One major drawback with MDF slatwall panels is their weight (as much as 100 lbs per panel). That makes them quite difficult to work with.

Variety of hanging accessories

You can find enough basic hanging accessories for pegboard panels, but probably not more than the 40+ types of hanging accessories available for slatwall panels. The numerous sizes of hooks can be used to hang items like bikes, small or large tools, power cords, ladders, sports equipment, and more. Magnetic tool bars and a screwdriver holder can also be used for small tool storage.
