Disappointing Bracket: Low-quality and pricey

My analysis of this product showed that it's not worth the money. The bracket seems flimsy and cheaply MADE compared to other options on the market. As an Industrial and Scientific buyer, I expected more from this product.The only pro is that it was easy to install. However, the cons outweigh this one positive aspect. I would suggest exploring other options before purchasing this bracket..

Pros
  • Reduces installation time and labor costs with no need for pre-drilling, resulting in a faster and easier installation process.
Cons
  • Requires a specific drill bit for installation, making it necessary to purchase additional tools and equipment.

Pros
  • Fits about 20 square feet
Cons
  • Slightly torn
