    From what I can see, the materials used in this project seem sturdy and durable enough to withstand the elements in the long run. However, accessing and aligning screws and nuts in certain areas can be challenging due to design flaws. Additionally, the instructions only provide a generic list of necessary tools such as wrenches and sockets without specifying the required size. This, along with the inadequate design, can result in wasted time and effort when constructing what should have been a relatively simple device.

    The A/C support bracket seemed to be sturdy and well made. The double bracket could easily hold up the weight of a fairly large AC. The design seems pretty well thought out and could work in many different applications where a support bracket it required. That one caveat that I mentioned in the title is that It didnt work out with the type of vinyl siding on our house, so we had to return it. However, I cant really say its a fault in the design of the bracket. Our house has large, thick vinyl siding panels that imitate the look of wooden shingles. They are very flexible and stick out from the side of the house quite a bit. Ill include a picture below. While I was setting up the support bracket, I mounted it to the window and rested the rubber feet up against the house. When applying some weight, I noticed that the feet were pressing on the siding a great deal, causing it to flex inward. I was afraid that it might crack the siding over time from bearing the weight of the AC. Also, the vinyl siding is very flexible and springy, so the support feet didnt really have any available surface for which to be firmly planted against. So, Like I was saying, the bracket is solid and will work for a variety of applications, but if you have siding like we do on our house, it might not work out for you.

    The thing you got to know before puchasing is what ac you get and try picture how its going to sit on this unit its completely flat. Make sure your ac is also flat on the bottom, wise your going to need to add with this like wood or something like that. Mine wasnt obviously.

    I personally dont want to leave this unsecured to wind not really easy to install but also not hard. Overpriced for what it is. to be fair though it is sturdy

    The connections once completed are solid but the side to side and depth adjustment procedure are unnecessarily burdensome and when you’re done the end of the interior braces have a vertical piece that is in the way of the air conditioner’s side panels

    I was excited to get this because I thought it would work great for my purposes and save me a lot of the usual hassles with installing a new ac unit. I was sadly and totally wrong. It’s a one size fits most with a lot of assembly. Get out your toolkit, a couple people to help, and set aside a good bit of time. The instructions are unclear with not the greatest drawings. You will need someone to hold the multiple parts together while you screw and bolt them together. Some spots are so tight you need small hands and an offset screwdriver to fit in there. Some attachments you are trying to hold a nut with your fingertip as you try to get the bolt started in them. A lock washer with a standard nut would be better there than a lock nut. It’s not particularly stable even after it’s all bolted together and doesn’t hold the an ac unit that weighs less than their maximum. It doesn’t grip the window ledge and the whole thing wants to fall out of the window. Luckily we have a deck so the outside of the ac and this support frame are sitting on a stack of boards on a bench to keep it in place. Not a well thought out or constructed piece of equipment and a waste of time and money.

    As the title states, this is one of the worst purchases I have ever made. From a design and metal quality standpoint it’s fine, but trying to put this thing together took literally hours, and that was with two people. The included directions might as well not exist, and the video for it is also an absolute disaster, it should banned from YouTube. There was not enough hardware included to build it properly, so I was only able to use 75% of the included screwsolts. I have absolutely 0 clue what its actually doing in my window right now or if it’s even really holding up the air conditioner. I was able to eventually cobble it together, but that was only after taking it apart and putting it back together about 5x... Both the directions and the video show you how to build the item, and then in the following steps essentially tell you to completely take it apart again. • If you hate yourself enough to buy this item, or you are really desperate and live in an apartment like I do where you can’t readily drill into your windows, I advise watching the video IN FULL (don’t bother reading the directions they were written by someone with wet brain), from start to finish, several times.... And while building this thing, if you find yourself with not enough hardware, pray. Just pray and believe and hope that this thing will stay together and not come crashing down and take out the persons AC who lives below you.

    Good idea but couldnt use because the lower rail (holds the accordian sides) on the a.c. unit has to fit in the window groove. With this brace it raises it way above where it should naturally fit.

    Instructions/Video needs to be redone. I struggled to get the nuts on in the cramped space in the order the video gave until I changed the order in which I put things together. It tells you to put the arms then take it apart again THEN measure then redo all of the steps. So it was very frustrating to struggle to put it together only to have to take it apart. Other than that it works great!
