What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these toggle bolts for exceptional holding power in drywall, sheetrock, stucco, and mobile home walls, particularly when mounting shelves, towel racks, and light fixtures where traditional anchors fail. Reviewers consistently highlight ease of installation without special tools and reliable wing design that opens properly behind walls. Many emphasize superior strength compared to plastic anchors, calling them "ole reliable" and noting they work in challenging ceiling mounts and tight spaces. A small number report inconsistent manufacturing, including pins too thick for standard holes or occasional broken springs, though most consider these isolated defects rather than systemic issues. Overall, customers strongly recommend these for dependable, long-lasting support.

Solid hanging, easy installation, and low cost!

Would Recommend

This is better than any drywall anchor. It will hold without entirely killing the wall. And it won’t squeeze so tight it comes through and collapses on itself either. If you need a sturdy way to hang on dry wall-this is it. And cheap. Easy.

BUYER BEWARE!

Would Not Recommend

Upon tightening the bolts the heads broke off. I bought a pack of two and both heads broke. These things are dangerous and not with the headache.

Does not fit 3/8 hole

Would Not Recommend

Like others have said, this does NOT fit in the 3/8 hole that the package instructs you to make. The pin that keeps the wings together is too long. Very inconvenient.

They work. Plain and simple.

Would Recommend

I'm not sure why these are getting bad reviews. These toggle bolts work as advertised. The only way to break them, as always, is by over-tightening the screws. Use a little common sense and they will be just fine.

BEWARE: Too big for the recommended hole

Would Not Recommend

The instructions say 3/8 hole. The pins on most (of my set of 16) were bigger: 7/16 long. After I relieved the 3/8 hole on opposite sides for the too long pin, I found only one in the 6 or 7 I tried would fit through a 3/8 hole with their wings folded back (they were still bigger than 3/8), so I had to enlarge the 3/8 hole further by rocking my drill back and forth. It should not be this hard!!! I was using these to reinforce the mounting of a wall hung cabinet. The back was dense press-wood. No...

average quality

Would Not Recommend

The threaded element in the anchor is very weak probably limiting the capacity of the anchor. The pin that the arms rotate on projects too far and will not go through the recommended hole size without filing. The product works, but I'd be willing to pay for better quality and a more robust design.
