This is exactly what we needed. The product is robust and is exactly as described. The price is competitive. The order arrived a few days earlier than expected. With these factors combined, I give it the 5 star.

Response from Federal Brace SupportDecember 14, 2018
Thank you for posting your experience. We're sorry you didn't have a positive experience. Let's review the guidelines for this brackets installation.
The Freedom bracket must be installed into wood with at least 1.75" of biting material and should not be spaced more than 18" apart. The 12x12 Freedom also supports an overhang up to 16". By these guidelines the Freedom will hold 500 pounds in an evenly distributed load. If not installed by these guidelines, the review wouldn't be an accurate assessment. Please check for pdf guides on all Federal Brace products sold on Home Depot for the best experience.
