What Customers Are Saying

The drywall anchors had mixed reviews. Some customers found them easy to install and able to securely hold heavy items. However, the majority reported significant issues, including the anchors easily stripping, bending, or breaking, causing damage to the drywall. The metal used was described as poor quality and too soft, leading to the anchors failing to grip the wall properly. Many customers had multiple anchors fail within a single package. Overall, the consensus is that these drywall anchors are of poor quality and not recommended for use.

For limited applications

Would Not Recommend

this holds on tight once screwed in but if you loosen the screws the anchor does not hold tight most of the time. I was meaning to use thos to hold down some shelving pieces but the screws kept wiggling therefore making it hard to place the holding pieces.

Just like going to my local Lowe's store for my hardware needs. I can always find what I'm looking for and a employee is there to help you find it too.

Will not expand unless drywall is hollow on the reverse side. The metal anchors are also easily bent, making the screws a nightmare to seat inside

The anchor spun when I tried to tighten the screw and ripped the paint and wall board. I had to abandon that spot, patch and paint it

Mini drywall anchor

Would Not Recommend

I bought these to set a couple of shelf brackets. I got 1 out of 4 to bite and actually draw up against the sheetrock as designed. The others would not tighten or draw up. Just spin. I wouldn't recommend this product.

Cheap screw heads strip too easily

Would Not Recommend

Barrel barbs do not “bite” into the wall. Ending up stripping all screw heads trying to install. Lesson learned. Will not this type of anchor in the future! Cheap metal! Cheap screws! Bad design! Get what you pay for!!

Can't hold up to drywall

Would Not Recommend

So this is after using another brand for multiple items while moving the little one to her new room. Used 5 'other brand' anchors, no issues. I need more, run to Lowe's and this is the only option. I assume they will be fine. 3 failed anchors later because they would warp just enough to not work, I had to punch them through and resort to some left over toggle screws to complete the job. I won't be going back to Lowe's for hardware like this again as this is the only brand I saw there.

Buy if you want giant holes in your wall!

Would Not Recommend

These anchors are great if you enjoy spackling and painting your walls. Do not lock into drywall, keep coming out. Had to pound FOUR of these through my wall and now have FOUR giant holes to fill. Thanks, I needed some recent practice on spackling and painting...

Mollys are great, but these BREAK

Would Not Recommend

Recommended drill hole size is actually a tad too large. And when I screw these in initially to tighten the anchor, the back tip holding the screw thread breaks on about every third one! It took ripping one out of the wall to finally see what was going on back there when the screw would start pushing in/out of the wall freely. Absolutely unacceptable quality. Thanks for the big hole in my wall and countless wasted anchors parts back there in my walls due to this flimsy junk. I'll be taking the e...
