What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these porch posts for seamlessly matching existing columns, with the turned design and elegant styling earning consistent compliments. Most appreciate the pre-primed and painted finish, noting it saves time and effort, while many find installation straightforward and lightweight. However, some report receiving defective units with visible cracks, mold, or splitting, and several note dimensional discrepancies—posts labeled six inches measuring closer to four inches. A few mention missing moisture barriers at the base and confusing instructions. Despite these drawbacks, most customers consider the posts an excellent value that significantly improves curb appeal.

Great product except for one thing!
Would RecommendThere is a stamp on the bottom that says "Paint before installation" that is completely resistant to paint!! You can't paint over it!! It bleeds through every time. I'm using high quality paint (white) and I can't seem to get rid of the darn stamp reminding me to paint it!!!!
Look around but I'm not impressed with these post
Would Not RecommendA bit disappointed that the center of post was hollow in the middle of post. The cost was triple from two years ago. The manufactory cut corners I believe by not making the post solid like before. I only hope the post will support the roof like before here. The other ones lasted 20 years but these post being hollow in middle make me wonder what will happen here.

No anchor for concrete or like material
Would Not RecommendThe product itself is fine, but Lowe's lacks the availability of an anchor for concrete.

Unless you can improvise, Choose another type post
Would Not RecommendThe product itself is fine, but Lowe's lacks the metal base that would anchor the product to concrete.

Not 6" (5.25")
Would Not RecommendI wish I had read the reviews before buying. Dave mentioned this and would have saved me 1.5 hrs of driving back and forth. These are only 5" (actual 4.25"), and if you look through the pics, one shows you 6", the other shows 5". What a waste of time!
Thank you for the feedback. We will review the description and specs and fix accordingly.
I love it!

Bad poles
Would Not RecommendDescription says 8ft x 6 inches. They are actually 8ft x 4.5 inches. Big difference in support bases. Held up my porch project for 5 days waiting on new bases. Lowes should modify the description to 8ft x 5 inches.
