Overall winner: Swivl-Eze Lock'N-Pin Aluminum Pedestal Base 7 x 7 in
Key Differences
Attwood's Swivl-Eze (B001O0DF1Q) offers a brushed aluminum, corrosion-resistant base with a lower listed price tier and higher average rating; pick it if you want a simple aluminum lock-n-pin base for deck hardware.
