Not worth saving compared to Kreg

Wanted to try it, were a bit cheaper. They don't really fit, some were larger and some were smaller. I can't get them back so I'm stuck, buy them and you'll be stuck too

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Update available

Use filler instead.

Not easy to sand. It ended up not being merged with the rest of the project. You can also see them under the paint so you can see they're there. I no longer use them and instead just fill in the holes with filler.

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Only available in black

75% stars for 75% fit Earplugs

Only about 3/4 of each pack was the right size, some earplugs just didn't fit and some went in very easily, I bought 6 boxes of these now and the first one was 100% perfect so i ordered 5 more, all 5 still have big connector problem, about 10/15 of a box i can't use.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Can't remember

75% stars for 75% usable end caps

Only about 3/4 of each pack was the right size, some end caps just didn't fit and some went in very easily, I bought 6 boxes of these and the first one was 100 % perfect so I ordered 5 more, all 5 still have a major plug issue, about 10/15 of a box I can't use.

Pros
  • Some competitors
Cons
  • are unreliable

Will not fit Kreg jig holes

They did not fit and most of them do not fit standard Kreg jig holes. I had to hand sand almost all of them all the way around to fit and they still required a lot of sanding to get them flush. Then there were a few random smaller ones that fell into the holes and didn't fill them.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • I will add later

A worthy alternative to Kreg pocket hole plugs

I use the Kreg pocket hole tool quite a bit which results in some pretty gross holes that need repairing and patching. These stubs do a pretty decent job of accomplishing that. While in theory they should just slide right into the remaining hole, in my experience, for every 5 you make, you can get 2 that will "exactly" work. The rest is either raised or uneven or just looks bad. They sand up fairly easily, however, and you can get the same uniform look back with putty and paint. But I didn't…

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Legacy
