Too Flimsy
Would Not RecommendToo Flimsy. Post was not stable enough to eliminate or reduce movement; would not hold up to 200 pound pressure.

Too Small
Would Not RecommendThese don’t even fit the end of a 6’x6’ post. They are useless.

Products good. Ease of ordering on line easy. Order was ready quickly. However customer service rep walked away while I was asking a question and talking to her.

Not for use if you want substantial strength.
Would Not RecommendVery flimsy!! Attached it to concrete, installed the 4x4 post to it and the whole thing fell over bending and ripping the bracket out of the concrete.
