I was afraid that I wouldn’t find a anchor strong enough but also easy to use, but this was the fastest install into concrete that I have ever done. I screwed in 24 anchors under 5 minutes.

Pretty disappointed
So I installed these per the spec into my concrete patio and they pretty much just got torn up. I drilled the correct hole size, cleaned out the hole and tried to drive these in. I had one completely sheer off and on Atleast half of the others the threads just got eaten up. So for Atleast on concrete I'd avoid these, they may work better on brick but I haven't tried yet.

Every one broke
These are junk. I was using to anchor a toilet flange to a concrete slab. I pre drilled the holes with the recomended bit, to slightly beyond the depth of the full length of the screw. I then followed the directions and used a hammer drill to install the screws. No matter how slow, or how gentle the touch on the trigger, the screws all broke (6 to be precise). I then used a short handled socket wrench, achieving the same result with 4 more. I'm no stranger to the dangers of over torquing a bolt or screw, and these all snapped when they should not have. Now, adding more time to my project, and if i cant find a better solution, potentially costing me a lot more money than these fasteners retail for. Very disappointed. I wont be buying them ever again, and hopefully Home Depot takes them back on return.

Worth every penny
Quality at it's best, these anchors stand up to the test. They don't break very easy at all in fact I haven't had one break yet, just the drill bit. With the proper depth drilled these anchors helped support the foundation and didn't slip or spin out

These anchors are awful. 1/3 of them snapped, resulting in having to drill another hole each time. I finally gave up. I've used these in past and they worked great, however...

The quantity hence the cost was much more for a small job.
Would be better to have small quantity/number of goods for small job. So that for no reason the excess can not be used and the cost could have reduce?

Held nicely into the brick. Length was short enough to not go through the brick.

It seems to work well, but I had to get an extra bit.

Snap Easily
Figured I could be done with the job quickly, used the included bit and drilled the holes according to the directions. First one barely went in before I felt it getting too tight. Checked the hole and it met all of the requirements for depth and width since I used their precise bit they include. Screw snapped as soon as it got about 3/4 of the way down (3 1/4"). Thought it was a fluke, tried again. Snapped. 9 holes, 2 successful screws that held. I'm going back to the hammer in type.
