OZCO 56608 Laredo Sunset 6x6 Post Base Kit, (1 per Pack)

These post bases are legit. Very heavy duty, thick steel. I recently used some similar bases from the big box store and they were like tinfoil compared to these. These are easy to assemble and attach to the post since the footer and each side are all separate pieces that lock together when you attach them to the post. Big posts tend to be slightly irregular in width and depth, not to mention differences in dimensions between milled vs rough cut lumber. This base adapts to all of that without compromising either the integrity or appearance of the finished work. We’ve used these bases with 8x8s, 6x6s, 4x6s, and 4x4s. The 8x8 ones were installed outdoors almost a year ago and they look just as good today as when they were new. Very impressed by the quality of this product.

These Ozco pergola base kits (4), were worth every penny! They are relatively simple to install since I attached them to my wood deck so galvanized bolts and washers were used to secure the base. Metal is quite thick, beautifully powder coated and well able to stand up to windy day# in Colorado Springs. They add a great look to my pergola.

It’s doesn’t seem like it will hold up very well. The side pieces interlock like puzzle pieces then screwed into the post. Well made product needs a different design, like one solid piece.

The first thing that I noticed when my two base kits arrived was how heavy each box was. These are solid, heavy duty pieces of metal that fit together to form a super solid base for the end posts of a stair rail off of my deck. The quality of the pieces are worth 5 stars - the only reason that I knocked off a star was the price...at $55 each, they seemed to be on the high side to me, but they do have a niche market, so I guess they can stick any price tag that theyd like on them.
