Ozco Building Products 54208 Laredo Sunset Lite 6x6 Post Base, (1 per Pack), Black

A friend recommended this system because of the look - something substantial that didn't look industrial. I looked at it and the cost, but in this case you are definitely getting what you pay for. That includes free plans with a materials list. Using the plans and the system, I build a 12' x 14' pergola by myself in about 12 hours. I haven't totaled everything up, but final cost was about $800 including the wood. It looks great and neighbors up and down my street are asking if I can build one for them.A couple of quick points: Everything I ordered arrived within 24-48 hours, all in good shape with nothing broken or missing. The post bases do not come with any screws to attach to your deck or whatever foundation you are using, so you will need to purchase those. I also saw a review where someone complained the screws were easy to strip. That isn't actually accurate. The screws are are tapered to give them an old-world look, which means you need to seat your wrench or socket solidly on the base of the screw head to get proper torque. I had to buy a new socket because the one I had was worn, and just wasn't working as it should. The new socket worked great but I did have trouble in areas where it was hard to position myself to get the right position. My recommendation is take your time and don't rush it and you will be fine.I don't write a lot of reviews, but I can highly recommend the OZCO system. It looks good, is easy to use, and while it isn't cheap, it is definitely worth it in my opinion.

I looked at Simpson Strong Ties from a big box store 45 minutes away,and these. These were 4 or 5 dollars cheaper apiece so with 6 I saved around $20 and had them delivered to my door. These things are simple but affective. I mounted into wood up top and concrete on the bottom. Using 3/8 lag bolts and 3/8 concrete anchors. Mounted only with the center mount they are plenty stable and will not spin unless you tap them with a hammer. It is easier to bolt the side ears on loosely before you crank them down ( Don't ask me how I know lol) I particularly like the hex bolt looking finishers that give this a sturdy rustic look. Highly recommend them.

We used these for our Pavilion Project. The OZCO products are good quality and we liked the look. I shopped around for best price and who could deliver when needed.

Easy install and looks great. The quality seems to be great so far. Package well.

My husband is a professional handyman and bought these for a pergola build. He said they were great and easy to use! They look sleek but are strong, giving them amazing value for the price.

Used these on my 8x8” pavilion posts. They look great are easy to install and sturdy but over priced for what you get?

Easy to mount with adjustable base. Looks great and made very well.

Was not disappointed with these. Very high quality, adjustable up to a full rough 6x6 post (as seen in picture), and cheaper than going with simpson (which you also have to buy the bolts and bolt accents separately)
