These handrails are beautiful, solid, and heavy. Shipping was surprisingly fast. Assembling them takes about an hour. One set did have five screws missing, but I purchased what I needed at the hardware store. Installation is also easy as long as you are careful with the anchor bolts. Be sure that you have drilled the holes deep enough and that you ensure the locking mechanism is screwed on enough so that when you tighten the bolts they expand and take hold.
