Greater than one weekThis AC bracket is heavy duty and well constructed. Instructions are a bit confusing and the support legs dont stay in place without an additional screw to hold them up. Im not sure if this is my fault because I cant follow the instructions as my window doesnt look like either of the pictures. But I made it work and I feel that it is sturdy.

> 3 dayWe 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.

> 3 dayThis seems pretty sturdy now that it is installed. But, 2 of the screws snapped in half while installing. My husband traded out the screws that came with it for deck screws and at this point, every thing seems good.

> 3 dayNo assembly instructions. Because there are no instructions in the box or online (the link for instructions on the Amazon.com is missing) Ive been guessing on how to assemble it. But I have extra parts leftover I am not sure what purposes those parts are for. Per the photos, it would appear that I am missing at least 2 longer bolts, 2 washers, and 2 nuts. It seems to be a solid metal bracket so it got a star for the heavier gauge bracket parts. Amazon forces you to post a minimum of 1 star. I have someone coming over to help me try to install it and the 6k btu air conditioner. I am keeping my fingers crossed that we can at least macgyver it. UPDATE: I bought a second one and it came with instructions. It took two of us 3 hours to install The first air conditioner (6000 btu) into a jalousie window. The second one went in after about 2 hours with 5000 btu unit. To use this bracket in jalousie windows is not for temporary installation I.e. A renter. But overall, it is a good racket once you know how to assemble it so I will raise the rating to 3 stars. But without instructions, this can be very frustrating to use.

> 3 dayTheres hardly any air circulation around my building so my sons purchased an air conditioner unit that fits in the window. The windows dont have much of a sill, so we got the Universal Window AC Support/Air Conditioner Bracket. They had to do some creative work-arounds with some 2 x 4s as we live on the third floor. No way to stand outside and screw things down. *chuckles* So far, everythings working well.

> 3 dayI would first like to say that my review is not base on the product itself but the inability to be able to use the product. I live in Canada and this was the perfect solution to installing my new 10,000 BTU A/C unit. I happley purchased the bracket and was excited to receive it after watching the video on how it was installed. Once I received the bracket, I started to look at the bracket and figure out how to install this in my 2 pain sliding window. I was having problems because based on the video, MY assumption was it went on the far inside lip of my window ledge but my friend who is a carpenter said that after watching the video that it goes between the 2 windows. That would make sense given where the bracket needs to sit. I miss judged based on video so I was unable to use the bracket (and the new A/C) for its intended purpose. Im not saying its a bad product but the video was perhaps miss leading. My suggestion is update the video and do a walk through in the video on how to PROPERLY install the bracket. Again, possibly because of the double windows and the gap being too small to install the bracket is the problem its difficult to rate the product itself. I suspect it IS a great product. Just not for my situation.

> 3 dayThis bracket was purchased to hold a 80lb Kenmore A/C unit. We came into two issues. Our first issue was that the surface of the mount is slick metal. When the A/C unit asks with installation to have a slight outward tilt so that condinsation call fall outside the window. We noticed the unit was also built metal so it wanted to slide. There is no backing plate to hold in place and no items such as rubber spacers to help A/C from sliding around. So we took a board and cut it to the size of the A/C unit and screwed it to the bracket to give it less a change to slide. The next issue was the mounting screws. We followed the directions and pre-drilled the holes to mount to the window. Once installing the screws with a half dead almost powerless drill the bolts snapped. Right where the threads start. We decided to try another screw and once again it snapped. We then went to the hardware store and purchased the same size standard screws for 35cents each. We then installed bracket with no problems. Putting the provided screw next to a standard screwed we purchased you can right away notice the quality difference of the metal being used. The strength of the bracket itself seems strong. Once everything was installed I put some good amount of my weight on it and it held strong. For the price and quality I would have to say you should try another product or plan to grab some quality 35cent screws and figure a way to keep unit from sliding.

Greater than one weekWe 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.
