Selected User Reviews For Whitehall Products Sun and Moon Sundial, Copper Verdi
One of the old 4x4 posts left behind by the previous owner was embedded in a garden area. As an accent, there was a need to place something on top. I received the order fairly quickly. According to the description, the size was as described. Despite the low quality, it was still decent. There were no problems with the threads, and the screws didn't break or strip, so it looks incredibly sturdy and sturdy. I see that it is painted aluminum but not hollow in any way. It was fairly easy to follow the directions. There is a minor complaint that the hole in the base is a little too large- It is located in the center of the campus Pre-disposition is dangerous, so don't do it You need to drill a hole in the center of your location (just as In photo you can see a copper post cap that is not included.

In order to improve the design, it would be better if the pedestal top plate had a captive nut or included at least a locking washer or aircraft nut so that the machine screw in the flange could be tightened as needed.
Though I read the dimensions, it appeared that the sundial was larger in the photo. Unfortunately, I will have to return the product since it is not what I expected and will not suit my landscaping needs.
The hardware is sturdy enough, but I did purchase a lock nut, washer, and a lock washer to make it extra sturdy.
Copper sheeting was layered on top of the stump, and the sundial was mounted. The look and function are both great! There is nothing more you could.
