Review on 🏕️ Effortlessly Remove Tent Stakes with Camco 51058 Tent Stake Puller by Michael Gonzales

The price was cheap so I decided to try one of these on our trip to the beach this summer. We bought a new tent for our son and some of the stake points were stretchy so it wouldn't be safe to just grab the "rope" and pull to release the stake. The bars we used were yellow 9 inch. They have a nice hole in the "head" so I figured this puller would slide right in and you could pull them out. But the hole is too small (or the puller is too big) so it didn't work. I've found that when you push it into the side of the stake head it creates a small indentation that you can kind of pull on, but it still doesn't work that well. In order to secure the posts in the best possible way, the head rests on the ground, so you cannot mount the puller under the hook on the posts either. If the end was pointed it might work better, it's hard to tell. In the end it was slightly bent so that the puller handle and shaft are no longer parallel. This probably wouldn't have happened if I had pulled on the center or inside rather than the tip, which allowed more force to be applied to the metal's curves, which feels surprisingly strong. Next time I'll use a hammer. Claw and compare to decide which works best.
