Review on πŸ”— Gardner Bender MCS-20W Snapshot Multi-Cable Staple: Efficiently Securing NM/Romex, Coaxial, and CAT 5 Wires Together, 20/Bag by Jamal Sandridge

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works well: Cable Cleats

They work well, but I didn't find them particularly easy to use. I don't quite understand the purpose of placing the screw and nail as they are. I'd rather just have two screws going straight in or something. The plastic isn't very strong, so it's very easy for a nail to go through it if you don't hit it properly with a hammer. And notice how the nail goes through the red plastic band? It would be better if the nail just went through the tube (i.e. no strap, just a cylindrical hole in the plastic). This will prevent the nail from slipping to the side. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but if you're under your house, lying on your back and installing 25 or 30 of these, they'll show up.

Pros
  • Decent performance
