    I just installed this over the weekend. Its pretty rickety (my unit is 10,000 BTU and around 80-100 pounds) and although you dont have to screw anything into the outside wall, you do have to screw 3 holes into the windowsill. Luckily, we live in an extremely old house and my landlord said before we moved in that he needs to replace the windowsills at some point, so when I asked him if I could drill, he just shrugged and said, Why not? Installation is fairly easy, but I found myself having to be extremely delicate with the unit itself on top of the support. It rocks slightly from side to side which made me worried that my unit would fall if I didnt take a ton of care. I had one other person helping me inside, and somebody outside to help guide the unit into place so that we wouldnt have to slide it at all. At the end of the day, this was extremely cheap compared to the other brackets (which I suspect are almost the exact same thing). At the time of purchase, it was half the price of the equivalent product at Lowes. The level was helpful (though I double checked with another level when I got the unit in). And hey- it works, albeit rickety. Worth the money I paid, but not a dime more.

    No quality control, came VERY bent. Also came very next day in less than 12 hours.. I don’t have prime but had free shipping (5-7 business days), this was clearly a used return that was in a warehouse right near me.. in other words a return that was damaged and not checked for quality before reshipping. Got replacement one in about a week, it wasn’t damaged but was NOT top notch quality, had to make pieces fit (didn’t fit easily) and not completely symmetric.. not good especially for being EIGHTY DOLLARS. Also a huge pain to put together, with terrible, terrible instructions. The video instruction link was even worthless. Not good business to overcharge just because not any competition for drill-less version, especially for sub-par product.

    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!

    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.

    Although it says it fits 24 to 38, I installed it in my 21 window and it fits securely for my smaller A/C unit. Installed through the window and against the inner trim. I bought 4 total, and the others are mounted in the actual window channel, which eliminates the 3 air gap under the bracket that you need to seal up to prevent hot air from coming back in. Not sure what other customers were complaining about with the quality, like the picture of the 45 degree legs dangling straight down. I suspect they had the support legs installed backwards. There is a lip on one end of the support legs to prevent them from dropping down. Not sure why anyone would drill holes into their window sills, unless it was a permanent installation. But if you need A/C year round, a unit installed in the existing heating system is the way to go. But if you only need it in the summer months, these are the brackets to use and not make your window sills look like crap for the other 8 months of the year. It may be a little overkill for an 8000 BTU unit, but it is solid.

    We installed this on our RV to hold a window unit. It worked great, and even survived a direct hit from hurricane Ian at a category 4, it held strong with the unit in place. Hated spending $75 for it, but wow, cant complain now.

    Bought this to replace a failed bracket for my LG 15K BTU room air conditioner. Unit was fullfilled by Amazon. Unit arrived in its box, damaged. The level vials were broken and one was drained of its fluid. That is enough to warrant a return right there, but this was intended for supporting a large AC unit. it is probably strong enough to hold the Unit in the window, IF, it fit the unit. My AC unit measures 25 deep without the front face grill. This bracket measures overall 18. that is 18 from the front holes used for mounting to the window sill to the end of the bracket outside the window. My AC is a slide in as most of the large units are, you have to mount the can in the window then slide the Unit into the can and mount the front grille. The can has no bottom. There is no way to mount the can to this bracket. It is just plain flat too small. Here, SIZE DOES MATTER! It may very well hold 180# but that is deceiving because a 180# AC unit is going to be a lot larger than 18 deep x 18 wide. This will not work for the class of AC unit claimed in its advertising. Gave it three stars cause it does appear that it would work fine for a small unit.outside of the broken level vials which seem to be common with this product. Returned for refund. It only measures 18 x 18 good thing to know when mounting a 27 wide by 25 deep AC unit.

    The directions have you assemble things in a weird order that makes assembly very difficult. Also the side bars have to stick out a minimum of four notches cause they hit they each other and can’t go any closer. Also the metal is slippery and the ac unit moves easily, maybe if it was textured it would be a little more stable.

    There are two issues number 1 see photos. Number 2 there is no way to seal the surrounding gaps caused by the designs lack of slot for the STANDARD lower bracket on air conditioners. The value is negated by the entire process we went through - purchase, wait, receive, unpack, layout, gather the tools, assemble, realizing the improper weld, choose to forge ahead regardless to make it work, then realizing the typical window air conditioner lower support bracket that usually sits in the window frame has nowhere to go! We missed that when looking at the design. Our fault but, never the less there is no slot for this in the design. This means you have to come up with an alternative way of closing the gap caused by the air conditioners standard lower bracket that would normally sit inside the window frame for its left and right-side wings. Total pain in the ass...period! The amount of time spent on the process is lost so it was returned. Total bummer, nowhere like the majority of what’s available here, does the ad reveal where its manufactured. We are soooooo over this same story, DECEPTION ABOUND!!!!
