Good price, good item
We use these on 12″ concrete deck footing to hold the post…and we do a lot of decks when building houses and additions. Work well, solid, and half the cost of local purchases.

Perfect fit for exact 6×6
Perfect fit, just as described. Fits a true 6×6 post with no problem at all. The finish is strong and durable — feels like it will hold up for years without wearing down. Very solid quality, especially compared to what you’d find at the big box stores, and definitely at a better price. The heavy-duty 10 mil plastic is tough and dependable, making it perfect for crawl space or outdoor use. Exactly what I needed and well worth it.

Excellent substitute
It’s been more than a year since I used these to install my elevated deck.I bought the 10 pack and am completely satisfied with the results

Expensive but effective
Dang these things are high, but they make connecting 4×6 posts a breeze. Use 16d nails and it’s never going anywhere.

Great price for 10 quality post bases
They are the nominal/actual 3 1/2 x 5 1/2” size so you may or may not have to trim the post end to fit. But good well made solid bases and worked as expected.

CHINESE GARBAGE!
This is absolutely the worst product ever made. It is what we call CHINESE GARBAGE! This review just came in for me to review and to make a long story short, I’m sending it back! I ended up having to purchase the same product made by Strong Tie and Lowe’s and it a night and day difference. Unfortunately it was twice the price but like they always say you get what you pay for. BUY AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS!!

They are a little bigger than 6×6 which works great if the post are a little twisted
Perfect, made the job easier and more secure

I’m writing this review to warn people unfortunately. These looked so promising! They look solid, actually they look exactly like the competitor well known that begins with a “S”. I’m a contractor, cost saving is important to maximize my profit and these were less than half the cost of the leading competitor. So I took the gamble! They looked solid and well made at first glance. I opened the box and I though I made a really good call honestly. But the major issue is very subtle and makes them useless. In the manufacturing process, the metal is folded. Problem is, the folds on each sides are not the same resulting in a out of plumb post. I had 8 to 10 degrees off, that’s huge! Took me a while to find out why, then I noticed… Imagine, the longer the post, the worst it gets, but also if they are facing in opposite direction, you get “V” posts. Very unfortunate, they were promising. I returned them and got Simpson, problem solved… Took the time to write so you know what you are getting into…
