Every unit is scored by hand on four facets, 1 to 5 on each. There is no overall score: the four facet scores are the condition.
The original box or a plain one, and whether the contents sit in their packing or loose.

Every unit is inspected and photographed by hand, one at a time. We describe what we find as accurately as we can, and we do miss things: a mark under a light, a part we did not think to check. If a unit arrives different from this report, tell us and we will put it right under our return policy. More on the scale itself in how we rate.
This kit provides three surface-mount stair posts made of powder-coated steel, designed for angled installations where code-compliant handrail height and stability are required. Each post is pre-drilled with ten pairs of horizontal holes to accept 1/8" stainless steel cable, and includes cable grommets for a clean, finished look.
An adjustable top bracket allows the post angle to be set between 25 and 35 degrees, letting the railing follow the slope of a staircase while keeping the handrail firm. The posts carry a commercial grade rating and a stated load capacity of over 200 pounds, with a powder-coated black finish intended to resist rust and UV exposure without repainting.
Mounting hardware and an installation guide are included, and the square-shaped posts are designed to work with standard cable fence accessories for flexible installation on various structures.
