Cheap quality
DO NOT BUY THESE. The screws are cheap metal that you can not put any torque on at all. The plastic pull tab breaks before you have it tight then metal back is smooth so would not grip the back of the drywall. I installed grap bars using 18 of these and from the first to the last they all were poor quality! It says "fast installation" but they cost me over an hour extra to remove each one that failed.

    Ends fall off. Doesn't easily thread and catch
    Terrible product. After placing item through drywall and pulling plastic into place. Once you try and thread screw in with a little too much pressure the back piece just falls off. Bought a 12 pack and only 3 of them installed correctly.

      The plastic zip tie breaks way too easily leaving the anchor in the wall. On one of them, the screw was already in the anchor partially so when the plastic zip tie broke I couldn't unscrew it from the anchor. I had to chip away at the nut with some snips so I could push the screw through the wall. I bought twelve, out of the first 4 holes I was using these for 3 broke. Horrible experience.

        Absolute garbage. The instructions are poorly written. The plastic is fragile I went through several to learn how to use them and once I got the knack, it was obvious these could never hold 50 pounds. Let alone the 600 pounds advertised. I switched to EZ Toggle.

        Frustrating
        I am a maintenance electrician and have used and recommended a different brand -- thought I would try these instead. What a waste. They're harder to install, and the plastic collar and metal toggle doesn't line up as easily with only one plastic pull. The screw starts in the plastic but if the metal toggle isn't lined up perfectly it will just get pushed off and fall. After several tries in a tight spot I game up and dug out an "old fashioned" wing toggle bolt to finish the installation.

          Fragile
          Low rating due to the fact that the plastic pull strap breaks easily when installing, and the plastic plug does not readily pull tight to the drywall.

            Do not buy
            As others have reported, the zip tie is too weak. The metal piece falls into your wall before you get a chance to connect to it. The instructions make it sound easy, but the tool simply does not work. I have only been able to connect the screw to the end piece on 1 of 6 attempts. The plastic grommet is hard to push when you get near to the wall. This product is rubbish. Home Depot should be embarrassed to carry such a poor product on their shelves.

              Zip tie break too easy. If there is anything in the wall like insulation it probably won’t work. I just used regular toggle after these broke. Great idea but I don’t think works well….

              Best toggles I've used
              I followed the instructions exactly and didn't have any trouble with hardware QC or the strap breaking. Drilling a neat 1/2" hole first helps to set the bushing just right. Make sure the toggle is pulled snug against the bushing before breaking off the strap. I especially appreciated being able to remove and reinsert the screw during installation without losing the anchor inside the wall. The hold feels very strong and solid, much more so than any other style of anchor I've used.

                The most heavy duty anchor I could find for my plastor walls. Worked perfectly and can hold some serious weight. Will be buying again.

                Not a bad idea until the metal part breaks off from the zip tie and falls down behind the wall. The 9 out of 12 that did stay in place work very well.

                I can’t tell you how much time has been wasted trying to use these anchors. You can do everything right and these anchors will still fail. So far, out of 4 packages we average 1 out of every 4 anchors actually works. The down side of that is that you’ll go to mount something, the first anchor will grab and then the next two won’t. So you have to remove whatever you’re mounting and reevaluate. And with a 1/2” hole in the wall your options are limited. For 120lbs rating in drywall I mean..

                  Worked perfectly as advertised. I left pull tabs attached for possible future problems with fixture.

                  Easy to install, very strong, work as they're designed. Much better than the Snap Toggle that kept breaking prematurely.

                  I used 3 of the 12 pack. two worked well but one spun as I tightened the screw causing it to be fast but still loose. It was the top one near the false ceiling in the 1/2 inch drywall. One screw was missing from the package.

                  Worst toggles I’ve ever used and they all suck
                  Professional carpenter for 25 years. I’ve probably used 50 different kinds of toggles, mollies, anchors etc. I got TWO out of the first NINE I tried to work. They do not align once pushed into the wall and the zip tie, designed to break oh so easily, ALWAYS breaks prematurely. I’ll accept user error as part of the first one or two, but they aren’t difficult products to use. They are simply awful. DO NOT BUY THESE. This is a trash product.

                    JUNK JUNK JUNK!!!!!!
                    Don't waste your money on these. Buy anything else. Out of the pack, 2 worked. Couldn't get a screw to start in any of the others and the zip tie broke when I applied pressure to make sure it was snug in the wall. Poor design and just pure waste of money. If I could return an empty package to HD I would. Thats how much trash these are. Absolute garbage.

                      Anchors Aweigh!
                      Seemed to work well. Be sure you pull the black plastic strap HARD, so the anchor is tight against the backside of the drywall. Before you cut the strap, I'd recommend using the screw to make sure the anchor is tight- that both reduces the chance of slippage and makes it easier insert the screw when you're doing the final attachment.

                      Not well designed.
                      The plastic part can be hard to break off. Hard to fully seat the round ring. Screw doesn't easily engage the metal piece behind the wall causing it to stick or rotate and fall down .
