We needed support for a granite bar over a couple of half walls in the kitchen. The kicker was the the angles between the walls made it very difficult to do anything traditional there. These brackets saved the day! While they do not sit parallel with each other, they are so discreetly tucked in that everything looks and feels normal. Their low profiles allow sitting under the counter with no problems. I like their finish as it goes along with everything else metal in the kitchen and nook. And they took the weight of that counter very well too. The only nitpick I have is that we had ti file them a bit, as their edges were sharp.
