It was disappointing that the instruction book indicated the unit was not suitable for outdoor use. The photo on website shows it pictured outdoors! It makes me wonder how “durable “ the coating finish really is. It went together easily enough. Some scratching of the paint resulting bare metal spots occurred as we positioned the base on concrete piers and patio blocks outside.

Easy to put together and very heavy duty. Very pleased with this purchase!

Exactly as described, went together well is sturdy. The rack is holding 3 kayaks and a paddleboard with ease.

This is exactly what I needed for my two kayaks and two SUPS. It took about half an hour to assemble it, but the instructions were good and it was not a difficult assembly at all.
