What Customers Are Saying

The 6x6 post base is a functional product that is easy to install and effective at keeping posts off the ground. Many customers found it adjustable and useful for preventing post rot. However, some felt the thin metal construction was of questionable quality and the product was overpriced. A few also reported issues with the fit for 6x6 pressure-treated posts being too tight.

Nuetral

Would Recommend

I used the 6x6 and 4x6 to support a carport. They definitely sway. Im kinda nuetral on whether using them over other anchors. Of course the 1 inch raise off the cincrete is a plus.

Expensive but useful

Good quality and fits the 6x6 post as it should. Unfortunately they are very expensive for what you get.

Very strong but a little pricey.

Flexible post base when used with 1/2 post anchors. Saves time when doing post layout. Allows error in layout as you can rotate to alingn with second post.
