Brass is not magnetic. That.

Sharp edges cut through the material I wore them on. Of course I used them. I bought them. They were cheap. I went to the hardware store for the next batch. Some are already rusting.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Only available in white

Very easy to use, best in eyelet sets

I was afraid I would have to buy a more "official" shim tool to make this work. But it was super easy. Tip: Perform all work on a hard surface such as concrete steps. I put a cutting board down so the concrete doesn't crack.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Some cons

It's cheap but not very good

I only needed 4 grommets and didn't want to spend a lot. The biggest problem with this is the hole punch. Put simply, it doesn't work. I hit it as hard as I could and it still didn't cut a clean hole. Installing the grommets was easy.

Pros
  • nice item
Cons
  • questionable purchase for seniors

Buy a heavy duty hole punch

The bushings themselves are fine but the little hole cutter becomes useless after about three holes. Other stand and clasp are ok. If you hit the grommets too hard they will really come loose. This can usually be corrected by flipping the bushing in the "anvil" and hitting it on the other (wrong) side.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • ---

The stamping is very boring

The stamp for this kit will not go through cotton fabric, not even in one layer. It only provides a cutting guide line. Also, the bushings don't line up properly for a clean finish. I was so excited to receive this kit but then it was delayed 2 days from the expected date. Overall just not satisfied. That will do until I get a better kit.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Does the job but could do better

First off let me say that for the price you probably can't beat this product. I shopped locally and it was significantly less money. The grommets and the tools to install them are great. The only problem I had was with the hole punch, it wasn't sharp at all, it didn't even pierce a layer of fabric. I ended up using it to mark the fabric and then using the exacto knife to cut a hole based on the hole punch mark. If the punch was a little better it would be 5 stars but it's still great quality.

Pros
  • 1 year trial
Cons
  • Expandable

YOU rust! NOT REAL BRASS!

I bought these bushings for use at sea - a DIY kayak sail. I was specifically looking for brass bushings that I knew would not rust in salt water. The product name said "Stainless Brass Metal Grommets" so I ordered these. A few months after completing the sail I was dismayed to see rust on the grommets after a few outings. Then I took the magnet and saw that it was attracted to the magnet. This shouldn't have happened if it was real brass. This product is misleading so BEWARE!

Pros
  • Easy Repair Set - 1. Drill a hole 2. Place bushing with washer 3. Hammer bushing
Cons
  • Doubtful

This tool rocks. - Eyelet Kits

In early March 2020 I bought a large (10 x 3ft) vinyl banner for my outdoor jewelry stand (bad timing! ) Great, but kinda I forgot to order the one with brass bushings which made it useless. I ordered this kit to add grommets. It worked (mostly) great. Real eyelets are great; durable and well made. You install in seconds. The only problem I have is the hole punch that comes with the kit. It's more like "marker holes". It just couldn't cut through heavy vinyl. I used this to mark the hole, which

Pros
  • For tarps, tarpaulins, fabrics and tents - Multi-purpose eyelet repair kit for quick repairs
Cons
  • Great price

This is my first time using bushings and it couldn't be easier!

I had to hang moving blankets on some of the walls for soundproofing. Blanket nailing/pinning absolutely ruined the fabric, moving blankets are pretty cheap stuff. I wanted to try the bushings and they worked great! I used all the tools they gave me and it took me maybe 5 minutes to make 3 grommets. There are two blankets hanging in front of my door that keep popping up when someone walks through them. I thought all the movement and sliding of the door would start pulling on the grommets but it

Pros
  • Includes all eyelet tools - punch, assembly tool and anvil.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
