What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these deck screws for their exceptional Torx drive design that prevents stripping even on tough materials like oak and treated wood. Most highlight the ability to drive smoothly without pre-drilling, self-countersinking easily with minimal effort. Reviewers commend the corrosion-resistant coating that resists rust for years outdoors and allows future removal without damage. Many use them across diverse projects—fencing, decks, cabinets, trellises—and report strong loyalty, stating they will never buy other wood screws. A few mention occasional coating inconsistencies or wish for smaller size options, but these concerns are rare and do not diminish overall satisfaction.

Would Not RecommendI would give a 0 star rating if one was available. Although these screws are supposed to be an improvement over standard screws because they have features which are supposed to prevent them from backing out, they are a miserable failure. They will not draw two pieces of wood together. The head goes flush with the piece of wood and then the screw starts to spin and will not draw the warp out of a piece of wood such as a deck board or sheathing. I was even less pleased when, after buying two boxes...

Best screws hands down.
Would RecommendI don’t even bother looking at any other brand, hands down these screws are better than any other. The star bit prevents stripping and I’ve never had any problems with these screws deteriorating.
