What Customers Are Saying
The product features a mixed quality, with some users reporting the inserts can work well if installed correctly, but the installation process requires specific techniques.

Install as intended
Would RecommendThey do work as long as you don't follow the instructions that Lowes has posted. The SLOT is NOT for a flat head screwdriver.

Would RecommendEasy to install
Would RecommendReally easy to install. I used them to replace broken support legs on my bed.
Use soft materials such as wood or plastic.
Would Not RecommendI used this product in a manner that is not intended. Being made out of brass, it was easy to modify it.
