We have not assembled this yet, however I will say, these brackets are well made! My husband and I have built several pieces of furniture, as well as our kids’ playset, massive bunk beds...so I feel confident saying these are STURDY! They were bigger than I expected and extremely heavy. A durable coated finish and they come with heavy duty galvanized washers and bolts. They look extremely easy to assemble, when you get your beans, though not likely a one person job! Really looking forward to getting these turned into a swing set for the kids!
