    This is the second time we've ordered these brackets and we LOVE them. We had some issues with shipping that was not the sellers fault and when we did receive the items, we were missing some bolts due to the shipping provider repackaging the items. They happily and promptly shipped us new bolts with no additional charges. Wonderful customer service!!!! And excellent quality item!!
