Drywall anchors and screws aren’t exactly the most exciting purchase, but they serve a purpose, and this set does the job well—within its limits.These self-drilling plastic anchors work as intended for hanging lighter items like framed pictures, small shelves, or decorative pieces. They install easily into drywall without the need for pre-drilling, which is convenient. However, I wouldn’t trust these for anything too heavy, like a large mirror or a floating shelf meant to hold weight. While the anchors claim to support up to 75 lbs, drywall alone isn't always the most reliable for that kind of load without additional reinforcement. Also, the kit only includes one size of screw—#8 x 1-1/4”—which works for most basic applications but doesn’t offer much flexibility if you need a longer or shorter option.On the plus side, the included storage case is great. It keeps everything organized, and with 104 pieces, you get plenty of anchors and screws to work with. This is a solid set for standard drywall mounting needs, but for heavier-duty projects, I would look at metal anchors or toggle bolts instead.

These drywall anchors are excellent for securing heavy items on the wall! The kit includes everything you need: 52 self-tapping anchors and 52 screws. The heavy-duty anchors can hold up to 75lbs, making them perfect for mounting shelves, frames, or other fixtures. Installation is quick and easy, and they’re incredibly sturdy

I was not looking to order drywall anchors when I came across this kit. In fact, I do not usually think about drywall anchors at all until I need them, and it is then that I realize I do not have the right amount or the right kind of anchors to do the job at hand. That is frustrating and turns a quick job into a much longer project. Therefore, though I had no particular job to use these anchors on right now, when I saw this 104-piece drywall anchor kit for $6.99 (at the time I ordered them) I took a closer at them.Looking at the ad, my first thought was that these anchors may not be a quality product because of the price. At $6.99 for the kit, the individual cost of an anchor and screw is under .14 cents each. That is a bargain compared to other similar 75# rated drywall anchors I have seen.My second thought was that I liked the storage box they came in because I struggle to keep myself organized, and I will take any help I can get.I decided to order them.Upon receiving them I looked them over, comparing them to a similar, more expensive, drywall anchor that I have. They are almost identical in size and shape, and their “toughness” and overall quality seems to be equal. The plastic storage box is compact, measuring about 8” long x 7” wide x 5/8” deep. It does a good job of holding the anchors and screws in place and uses very little storage space. It has dual tabs on the front that allow the lid to be snapped shut and corresponding dual hinges on the back. The snaps and hinges work well to keep the anchors secured in the box, but being plastic, their live span will depend on the frequency of opening and closing the box, though I believe they are adequate for my needs.But how well do the anchors work?The anchors need a Phillips screwdriver to screw them into the drywall. Either a standard flat blade or Phillips screwdriver can be used on the screws. I used a flat blade screwdriver for the screws.Since I had no immediate job requiring the use of these anchors, I tested them on the 5/8” drywall in my garage (see pictures).These anchors are described as not needing a pre-drilled hole in order to be used. Technically, this is correct. The point is very sharp and the wing-blades on the point do cut through the drywall, but once the threads came in contact with the drywall it became impossible for me to screw them completely into the drywall. Further, the threads kept clogging up. (As noted above, I used a screwdriver for this test, not a drill).I decided to drill a 1/8” pilot hole in the drywall to see if that helped (see anchor on the left in the pictures). It did help, but it was still tough going and as you can see the drywall was torn a little bit as I screwed the anchor in. The drywall kept clogging up around the threads, but not as badly as it had when I was trying to screw the anchor in without a pilot hole.I then drilled a 3/16” pilot hole in the drywall (see anchor on the right in the pictures). That definitely helped. It was still tough to screw it in, but not too tough. In fact, I would have been a little concerned if it screwed in too easily for fear that it would not have a strong enough grip on the drywall to adequately hold anything. Another advantage to the pilot hole is the reduced amount of clogging that was produced when screwing the anchor in. The picture shows a much smoother result on the drywall from using a 3/16” pilot hole compared to the 1/8” one.Having said all of this, however, I have encountered these same problems using much more expensive drywall anchors of this type, which means I will go with the more economical anchors.The screws securely screwed into the anchors with no problem.I did not test the 75# load capacity of these anchors, but past experience leads me to believe they will hold that amount of weight. They fit tightly and snuggly into the walls.The seller does note that “75 lb. load capacity is for items hung flush to the wall and may be less for those hung out from wall, like shelving”. That is good advice.The seller also notes an “audible click lets you know when the anchor is firmly set”. I heard no such click.Overall, I believe that these anchors work as well as more expensive anchors of like kind that I have used in the past. I also like the storage box that comes with them. In spite of the need to drill pilot holes (you may not need to) I am pleased with these anchors and would order them again in the future if need be.

The Anchors are on the larger side and have a 1mm surface ring meaning you cannot fully countersink.-1 star since I used two anchors so far and one broke inside the wall about half way through making the anchor go in not vertical anymore1- star because on of the screw heads broke without applying crazy tork
