Hardware Essentials 851585 Friction Assisted Lid Support-Left Side Brass

Easy install and worked well although a little less quality

Ideal for my application. We'll made for the price.

Although the brass looks very nice it is not very strong and bends easily. I wish this was manufactured in stainless steel or a stronger material. Of course it is just out of the warranty period so I'm stuck buying another bracket. Not sure I would try this one again for fear it will bend like this again...

The hinge was a replacement for one that I put on my kids toy box that I built. The original got stuck and kids ruined it by forcing it down. I liked it because you could adjust it so the kids could open toy box and the top would not fall down and smash their fingers. It was a good hinge for that reason. It works and looks nice. But is not the finest or heaviest piece of hardware.

Exactly as described. Using it as an adjustment feature on a tapering jig.

I've used these supports before and doesn't really matter at this point and I didn't pay attention to the picture of the package until I received it, but these are left-handed supports in a right-handed package. apparently or Taiwan friends in quality control don't know right from left.

Great lid, solidly built, arrived in great condition and well packaged. If you need both a LEFT and a RIGHT, make sure you order the correct item number, and for some reason the RIGHT hinge is about $5 more than the left, don't know why, probably because they can.
