What Customers Are Saying
Customers are divided on this tree staking kit. About half find it convenient and adequate for small, newly planted trees, appreciating the all-in-one simplicity. However, many criticize the plastic stakes as brittle and prone to breaking, especially under wind pressure or in hard soil. The included twine is frequently described as cheap and prone to unraveling, making secure fastening difficult. Reviewers note the kit fails for trees over six feet tall or in high-wind environments, with several users forced to replace components with heavier-duty alternatives. Despite these drawbacks, some report success with modifications or temporary support in calm conditions.

Would RecommendWorks well but they can come out of the ground. I used metal garden stakes to hold these in the ground more securely. The rope unravels making it difficult to tie knots.
Poor Value
Would Not RecommendCheap twine that unravels while trying to tie it and there's not even enough to do the job like in the photo, and some tubing...both could be bought for a few dollars. Stakes are nice though. Would be an okay value at about $5.
Ok for what it is
Would RecommendWe needed to correct a 6 foot tree that was leaning. We ended up trying this quick solution which worked ok. The rope provided could be longer and of better quality however.
Decent stakes
Stakes are sturdy but need to be about 3" longer to prevent stake pop-ups in windy conditions.
Simply not enough
Would Not RecommendThe string isn’t great quality. There is not enough strung for there to be 3 equal lengths of rope to support the tree. Not a great product.
Stakes are weak/too short to be effective in wind.
Would Not RecommendUnfortunately, stakes are weak as other reviews mentioned. Some extra length could help if you’re very careful, but they’re too short as well.

This works for a small bush but not a 6 foot tree
The rubber hose pieces should be longer and you need more nylon twine than is included to properly stake a tree.

Poor Quality, Cheaply Made, Weak to Support a Tree
Would Not RecommendWhat a waste of money. The spikes warped with the sun and they pulled out of the ground. We had to buy metal tent stakes to hold the tree straight. The nylon cord and the rubber braces are cheap and weak. I doubt it will last the year.
Wouldn’t Recommend
Would Not RecommendString was like plastic bags and short, tree wraps are sections of lawn hose
Tree stakes
I am very happy with the product! It is a higher quality and works better than a set I bought from the local greenhouse. They are working great getting my tree aligned!
Decent for the price. Use a mallet, not your foot.
Stakes are fairly solid and hold in the soft sandy soil of Florida pretty well, but do need to be driven all the way in to do so. They are a little flexible, so don't just stomp on them to drive them in. Rubber mallet recommended.
Keep your mono
Would Not RecommendNot worth the money! $10.00 for cheap rope & stakes
Weak, ineffective, ugly eyesore
Would Not RecommendCheap plastic line, weak anchors. The line is bright yellow and the tubing is bright green, granted I knew this before buying but I was in a pinch so I had no choice. A little planning will allow you to purchase a kit that is low key when it comes to color so it doesn't scream "look at me". There's no way I'm going to leave such an ugly product on my tree for a year or so while I wait for the tree to establish a strong root base... How about the product being clear so your eyes aren't drawn to i...
Do not over tighten nor put the ropes to low.
Would RecommendI wish I had this kit sooner for my trees. Glad i purchased 2 kits. In a windy conditions, it maintains an upright position.
