It is made very well and is very sturdy. In terms of gauge (thickness) and grade, it is a decent Our cap was securely fastened to our flue tile using stainless steel bolts. If your flue tile is more oval in shape rather than a rectangle, then you might have trouble securing it. Our flue tile was stamped "13" x 17", but it was really Therefore, I had to buy some longer stainless steel bolts to lock the cap onto the tile because of the oblong shapes of the sides. Additionally, the bottom corners of the cap are open, so in the warm season birds may choose to nest in there when we are This is something we will have to watch out for. But the important part is that the cap does a good job of preventing the liquid things from running down the chimney, which is why we chose to buy one. The bottom line is that this is a quality product made to last quite a long time and that A new update is available for the 2021 period July 20, 2021. With a fifth season ahead of us, the forever chimney cap is performing very well and looks very good. In addition, nesting birds do not have a problem getting under.

Good quality and solid construction.
I really like the look of it and it was easy to install.
It finally occurred to me that I might want to add a chimney cap to the chimney on our very old house. Using the 13x17" version, it fit nicely into our dual chimney pipes and was easy to mount.
This product has good quality. I wouldn't recommend it for an influenza size less than 13x17. Chim cap makes a model for an influenza size of 12 inches.
This cap was promptly returned and I ordered a Forever cap in its place. All parts are 100% stainless and the mounting hardware comes in stainless steel. Fully assembled, (welded). *A good value for the money.
