Would RecommendI love tapcon screws. Make it convenient to screw into concrete without an anchor. Only downside is price. You pay for the brand name.

Drilled two pilot holes
Would Not RecommendDrilled 2 simple Pilot Holes in brick .. the bit was done for after that. I needed to drill 6 more holes and it would not make a dent in the brick after that

Overpriced Item
Would Not RecommendI have no issue with the screws themselves. What I do have issues with is how Lowe’s is selling this EXACT item (literally same brand, screw size, length, and quantity) as their orange competitor for $0.54 more. While it may not seem like a lot, it makes no sense to pay more for an item. Yes, I know Lowe’s will price check this item, but I shouldn’t have to go through the hassle of this when you’d think Lowe’s would be competitively priced.
1 bit 2 bit 3 bit go
Would RecommendI was highly doubtful that these would work so well. I got the drill bit to create the holes for the screws and they were super easy to screw in. I was actually shocked I thought I was gonna have to do all this extra work but just drilled out the hole and screwed them in. I used these to hold down a sump pit cover I installed and am very pleased.

Goes in brick or concrete with ease
Would Recommendalready used the screws, liked them because they have a hex head for a nut driver, instead of just a screw head.
