Highly recommended for building materials

Super simple product. Drowned them in wet concrete and used them to support my makeshift gazebo. It's been about 2 months now and I'm happy to report that my pergola appears to be very strong and secure. So glad I found her.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • No automatic

ONLY when immersed in concrete.

This is NOT a cheaper alternative to a spike! Also, the bar is only as strong as the joint of the piece, which my friend told me doesn't work for him. They look solid enough but mine was left unused because nobody whispered in my ear before buying.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Very expensive

Worked well for a 4ft picket fence

Used to repair rotted 4ft picket fence posts. Remove the stop section, use a 5/8" wood bit and hammer in the holder. 5/8 inch rebar is firmly welded to the U-bolt. Worked well for this short and light fence, I wouldn't trust it with a taller or stronger fence that would put more wind load on the post.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Good but not great

Great for my specific use.

I use these to mount to milled 4x4 studs and place on existing walls. Then I attach the walls to the posts. Otherwise I would have had to tear down three walls, dig holes for each post, erect the posts, and then put the walls back up. They look heavy enough for my use. My use is probably a bit unique, but they work for me.

Pros
  • Heavy Duty Construction
Cons
  • Fits

great product suitable for building materials

Bought two of these for swing building. I originally had a screw in the ground stacks, but two of them broke because my kids were bigger and rocked harder. So I decided to buy two of these. The installation was successful, the part screwed and bolted to the 4x4 rack. Then he poured concrete into the hole. The design does not dangle like before. The kids have been rocking for about a month and seem to be doing great.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Negative present

Not for big structures

I gave them 3 just for the price but don't expect them to be square. I've bought enough to make my 40 x 16 RV awning with a 16 foot post and a lot leaves a lot to be desired. There's so much traffic out there, I need to figure out how to reinforce this shed. So if you're like me and don't want to shell out $90 for a 4-rib piece, do yourself a favor and just buy the more expensive ones. This is probably fine for small patios, but not for larger structures.

Pros
  • price
Cons
  • small things

Excellent value for money, solid construction

They represent excellent value for money and from what I can tell they will perform excellently for years to come. By doing the Purgola project and getting around $1200 total, you save a little here and there when, although I'm sure the quality is there, the other Simpson brand will cost you about three times as much. I ran the planer over the 6x6 posts and bases and they fit nicely up to the boots. By the way, all newbies, make sure you are good with the base! Haha save yourself a few hours of

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

soft metal will bend Do not use for free-standing constructions.

Be careful with them. I wanted to use them for a 14x14 pergola with 6x6 posts. 48 hours for the concrete to set and they were well set, not yielding or squirming. After I cut 6x6's to length they were set up vertically and I started building the pergola. I noticed movement, but found that the movement would stop as soon as I attached the bolts to the joists. That didn't happen. The next morning the entire structure was shifted along with the bent metal and swayed in the wind. I removed the…

Pros
  • Several competitors
Cons
  • are unreliable
