Review on πŸ”© Stainless Expansion Screw with 8 Self-Drilling Capability by Michael Lucas

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Absolute failure - almost unusable

I have never seen such weak wall anchors. Being able to bend them by hand is a problem. I've had success with about 1/4 of them, but not without a lot of issues. The screws are too big and put too much stress on the anchor - I had to drive the screw in before inserting it into the wall.2. Screwing loosened the flat starter or buckled significantly resulting in a wobbly approach, or just made a huge useless hole in the wall3. If they penetrate normally, the anchor surface will be destroyed and cannot be removed or tightened/flushed.4. Even driving the screw in isn't enough, and usually the screw binds and forces the dowel to rotate, causing it to not tighten (if it was good at all) and to push through the wall too hard. Pulling back at this point will cause the anchor to be removed because the screw is too tight on the anchor. And at this point, your target hole will be covered with a hose.5. I had several screw heads before half inserting the screw. A little worried. tighten lightly with your finger. The only time I've messed up my walls with other brands was when I didn't check/miss a nail, but that's minor. For a product designed to give fast, reliable results, he did the exact opposite: I had to change what I wanted and patch my drywall in many places because of this poor quality product.

Pros
  • high-strength
Cons
  • no instructions
