    The A/C support bracket seemed to be sturdy and well made. The double bracket could easily hold up the weight of a fairly large AC. The design seems pretty well thought out and could work in many different applications where a support bracket it required. That one caveat that I mentioned in the title is that It didnt work out with the type of vinyl siding on our house, so we had to return it. However, I cant really say its a fault in the design of the bracket. Our house has large, thick vinyl siding panels that imitate the look of wooden shingles. They are very flexible and stick out from the side of the house quite a bit. Ill include a picture below. While I was setting up the support bracket, I mounted it to the window and rested the rubber feet up against the house. When applying some weight, I noticed that the feet were pressing on the siding a great deal, causing it to flex inward. I was afraid that it might crack the siding over time from bearing the weight of the AC. Also, the vinyl siding is very flexible and springy, so the support feet didnt really have any available surface for which to be firmly planted against. So, Like I was saying, the bracket is solid and will work for a variety of applications, but if you have siding like we do on our house, it might not work out for you.

    I personally dont want to leave this unsecured to wind not really easy to install but also not hard. Overpriced for what it is. to be fair though it is sturdy

    I don’t often write reviews. And I normally think people are just being dramatic when they say something was hard to put together because most things are pretty easy. But holy cow, the written instructions for this thing are rotten. I even looked up the YouTube video the company puts out - also not great. The hand putting things together in the video is in the way in many shots. On top of that, the screws and nuts go into such awkward places that it was next to impossible to get some of them as tight as you’d like. It works fine now that it’s put together, but I’d never buy it again or recommend it to anyone.

    I purchased three of these brackets for use with window ACs ranging from 5000 to 12000 BTU. The bracket does take some time to assemble, then partially disassemble and reassemble once you discover that the legs arent attached to the frame exactly where they need to be to prevent the bracket from sloping toward or too far away from the house. I also noticed that each bracket, even with all bolts securely tightened, seems to lean slightly to one side. causing the AC on it to lean slightly to one side or the other. This is resolved easily enough by inserting a shim or two between the bracket and the bottom of the ACF on whichever side of the bracket is slumping. Note also that there is a gap of a couple of inches between the bottom of the bracket and the window frame that youll have to fill in or seal with something if you dont want horrific energy loss plus bugs, rodents, small birds, etc. joining you on the inside of the house. I think thats just how this style bracket works, though; as the windows in my house are installed flush with the exterior wall, and theres no exterior sill to which I can attach anything, Im moving forward with this item.

    This support may not fit every window as soon as you put it together. In my case, I took the rubber feet off, and used hurricane anchors to hold them right where they need to be. That way I can remove it when I dont need it, and when I do need it, it is easy to install. The top section did not have enough height, so i mounted a 1/2 length of a commercial grade cutting board, that was cut to lay on the window sill. I bolted it all together so it was all one piece. When the 10,000 BTU window unit came, I laid it on the bracket, and it worked perfectly. I also had to make a foam piece that went around the bottom of the window to fill the gaps. I used hot glue to hold it together as I cut up the open cell foam to fit the open areas. I never wait for a hurricane to prepare for it. When something does not go as you like during a hurricane, fix it asap, dont wait for the next hurricane and realized that you never did it. I did not need this with a 3000 btu window unit, but 10,000 btu is a lot bigger and heavier, so his bracket had to work.

    I like the final result is strong and you not need a drill. Putting the pieces together takes time I recommend to look at the video, thats help a lot.

    We bought this for a larger air conditioner and it sat around past its return time due to the fact our air conditioner was first lost and then the replacement was damaged so by the time we went to use this we found that it was missing a part. It was past the return but amazon refunded us anyway and we sent it back. Seemed like it would be pretty heavy-duty and sturdy. Assembly looked to be a little more involved than I thought but who knows?? It may have been easy if all the parts were there.

    Bought 2 of these products to support 2 - 10K Frigidaire Window A/Cs. They are constructed quite well and are very strong. Each of my A/C units weigh approx 115 lbs. Once setup correctly, these supports not only fit nearly perfect n my windows, but also support the units quite easily! While the feet set against the vinyl siding and proper 5-8 deg (for water drainage) is noticeable. You may have a few gaps to fill, but that can be accomplished quite easily. I use 1/2 Styrofoam Pipe wrap and cut to fit. No complaints and the units have been running without incident for a month.

    This review covers the drill-less version of the bracket. Make sure this will work with your air conditioner. The bracket arms that extend out are between 13” and 16” apart so edge to edge the feet on the window side of your air conditioner need to be in this range. I first tried this with a 6000 BTU Amana air conditioner but the “feet” on the front of the unit were two narrow so the front towards the window was not supported properly. Then I used it on a Frigidaire air conditioner. The feet on the Frigidaire air conditioners are 2.5 time the width of most other window air conditioners so it rested on the bracket perfectly. The feet on the Amanda were about 1/2 an inch wide. The feet in the Frigidaire were about 2 3/4 inches wide.

    If youre going to have a window AC unit, you probably need a bracket. This one seems very sturdy for its size, and is doing the trick in holding up my AC. Its not as easy to install as a simple 1-2-3 and there it is. It requires a drill and some technical expertise. Also, in order to fit snugly against the outside wall, you may need further bracing with wood wedges or similar (the shape of my exterior wall required two nearly 3 blocks to achieve level). Read the instructions through before starting installation. You dont want to get stuck halfway through the job with nothing in the open window! I had help from my dad, who thankfully knew better than to start hanging the bracket without taking measurements and cutting the necessary wood wedges (not included!). The integral levels in the arms are really useful to make sure that your AC unit tilts very slightly to the outside and drains away from the window. Once screwed in place, I assume that the bracket will be staying permanently, although Ill put the AC in storage come winter.
