Heavy Duty Ground Anchors - 18 Inch Ground Anchors Screw in, 4 Pack - Trampoline Stakes, Heavy Duty Earth Anchors for High Winds, Metal Auger for Tent, Shed, Carport, Securing Animals

These seem solidly constructed. The blades are welded on to the shaft. Seems pretty heavy duty. The topper eye bolt is very solid and heavy. Needed 18 of these bad boys for anchoring my greenhouse. Each anchor comes individually wrapped in bubble wrap so nothing was damaged in shipping. Each anchor is also fitted with a rubber cap because the tip is very sharp. FUN FACT: If you forget to remove the rubber cap before drilling, it seems a bit more difficult to get anchor deeper. Luckily that only happened once 🤣On the flip side, if you happen to be an entomologist or generally a lover of insects and fear you might impale an unsuspecting, innocent worm rest assured you can definitely leave the rubber cap on. It will work......with some extra work 😁

These ground anchors are used during several camping trips so far. And so far so good. These are easy to go deep and once they are in, they are in. I'm able to use these to anchor down some pull strings from our large 6-person tent. And in order to drive these anchors easily into the ground, I complimented this set with my BIG RED M12 impact driver. The anchor kit comes with some bits and adapters, so all I had to do is come up with more adapters to make it all drivable by using the cordless impact driver. I am so glad I didn't have to kill myself driving these anchors in manually. Got all 4 anchors into the ground in matter of 2-3 minutes, effortless. These anchors have gone in and out of the ground about half a dozen times, still easy to rinse off and paint is still on there, no rust. Just wonderful stuff. If you need anchors, these can be your best choice. I plan to use these in anti-hurricane festivities coming up in the summer at home, too. Going to be great!

The 18-inch length provides excellent stability, and the screw-in design makes them easy to install. They’ve held up perfectly against wind and weather, keeping my canopy, tent, and other equipment firmly in place. The 4-pack is great value, and the build quality is top-notch.

We have a fairly large portable canopy that we often set up in the summer months that's typically twice as wide as the normal canopy. We have had issues in the past with wind due to the light aluminum build of the frame and the very wide canopy top catching the wind to the point that even the small 8" tent stakes it came with do absolutely nothing (and frankly are annoying to hammer into the ground anyway.When I saw the AceFly 18 Inch Ground Anchors Screw in, 4 Pack, I had to give them a try as it was the first time saw a sturdy set of stakes that can simply be "drilled" into the ground. Not only are they solid as tanks in terms of build quality, but they also include the drill adapter or even a hand crank if a drill is not available at the time.The bodies are solid and heavy and seem to be well coated. I'm no expert on coating or painting iron/steel, but they feel like they would survive normal use. I wonder if rocky ground might mar the coating and lead to rust in the long run, but ultimately they are ground stakes and a little rust on the underground portion isn't going to hurt anything. I like that this model has a wider corkscrew blade than a lot of other versions online and will grip a lot more securely.I photographed them next to a standard 1" ruler to give a better sense of dimension. I was frankly expecting them to be a little larger than they are, but they are more than adequate for our needs. Once drilled or screwed into the ground, the O-ring top attachment is screwed onto the top of the rod that allows easy and secure attachment to the canopy.My only minor complaint is that the blades could have been tapered on their leading edges. Instead, they were cut flat which means that there is extra resistance when rotating in the dirt that could have been eliminated with a simple angled edge.Ultimately, the quality of the craftsmanship is on par with what I expected and their intended use. I'm not sure I would say that they will last forever or that I would secure safety equipment with them, but for the occasional use in the backyard or maybe even at the beach, these are WAY better than simple stakes.

I wish all ground anchors were designed like this. Being able to use a drill to install these is a game changer. It makes installing them so much easier. I particularly got these to anchor my pergola near my pool. Last winter the wind got ahold of my pergola and bent it pretty good. This year, I wanted to anchor it down and I figured these would do the trick. The problem is my soil is pretty rocky so a normal ground anchor wouldn't do. These ground anchors are very robust and work well. I'm really happy with these.

Sometimes the dog wants to stay outside longer than just a walk, so we got something to keep them from wandering too far.These stakes are solid and well made.I can't say they'd hold a big ole mastiff or a very energetic pit bull, but they work for our retriever and chihuahua while they saunter around the yard looking for a place to do business. Not too hard to drill into the ground if you get something to rotate them with inside the eyelet. We have extra now.

We put these on our gazebo and it hasn't budged. Definitely repurposing for Burning man to anchor our awnings down.

These aren't the fanciest ground stakes on Amazon-- they're just a little bit funky to install from my experience..... but that said, once installed, they're pretty darned solid. Unless you install them into deep watery mud, I don't think they're going anywhere. For the price, I'd recommend them-- I think they'd work for all but the most extreme uses.
