PlaystarPlayset Anchors, Two Set piece

I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 because they were very difficult to get into the ground. That being said, we used 4, one on each post, on a 10 foot tall fort with a floor 5 feet in the air. We also used one each on the swing set legs. It does not move and inch even with 2 men trying to rock it. We has 2 adults swinging in the swings and it still did not move.Tips for getting it in the ground: At first I tried using a long screw driver through the hole to turn it while applying downward force. It would not rotate easily and did not seem to grip. When we switched to a 4 way lug through the hole things became much easier. Be careful though. On one of the anchors we hit a rock about 6 inches down and applied so much force on accident we actually twisted the anchor. It was still usable after we straightened it, but caution is still advised. You might also water the ground before hand.

They worked well. I ordered 2 sets, for a total of 4. 1 of the 3 augers broke off of the shaft it was welded on to. However i was able to dig it back up, re-weld it, then re-anchor it. Overall... satisfied, not WOW'ed and not disappointed.

These are nice heavy duty anchors, but the picture is misleading. The picture shows 4 anchors, but the set only comes with 2. I wouldn't have bought it if I knew it only came with two.

Very difficult to get these into the ground. Acts more like a auger hole digger. It will go in a few inches and then just pushes all the dirt up. Have to dig a hole, put these in, backfill and then tamp down.

Would have likes this to be a little more heavy duty but works so far

I bought 2 pairs of these to anchor our wooden play set. We moved it from our old house and it didn't seem as sturdy in the new yard. Also our kids are getting bigger. They work great, easy to install, arrived quickly, and after being in the ground for over a year they are still in place. I am very pleased.

Much shorter than I expected. Not suitable for heavy use (E.g. motorcycle)

I needed something to secure a wooden arbor, and these have worked very well. It's pretty hard to screw them into the ground, so I used a small piece of rebar to push through the eye on the anchors to twist them securely into the ground, then bolted them to the wooden legs of the arbor. I used 4 - and that arbor is not going anywhere now.
