47 customers mention ‘Functionality’28 positive19 negative

Customers have mixed opinions about the product's functionality. Some say it works well and is a good product that they have used many times before. Others find it useless, providing little or no fixing, snapping when screwed into them due to the brittle plastic material.

"...It is a solid and cheap product and does the job perfectly." Read more

"Does exactly what is says. Strong wall plugs for these silly walls that are in modern houses means i can hang things with confidence." Read more

38 customers mention ‘Sturdiness’16 positive22 negative

Customers have mixed opinions about the sturdiness of the plug stopper. Some say it's solid, stays in the wall well, and can support heavy shelving onto a hollow wall. Others mention that not a single one is strong enough, breaks before it secures in place, and the brittle plastic snaps when you screw into them.

"Didn’t have much luck with these as each one I used broke before it secured in place...." Read more

8 customers mention ‘Plug size’4 positive4 negative

Customers have different views on the plug size. Some find it acceptable but expensive without screws, while others say the hole is too large for the plug and difficult to place. The 10mm hole is just gappy on the plug and needed to be at least a size 10 screw.

"Description states that screws are included but they are not. Perfectly acceptable plugs but expensive without the screws...." Read more

"...are therefore the best of a fairly poor bunch so far - they do need quite a big hole, and are difficult to place accurately; however, once in place..." Read more

"Best wallplug for plastboards..." Read more

"...If you commit to using these and it doesn't work, you end up with large holes, which are difficult to conceal. Avoid" Read more

7 customers mention ‘Fit’3 positive4 negative

Customers have different views on the fit of the plug stopper. Some find it well-designed and fit for purpose, while others report issues with a poor fit and no way to properly tighten it.

"...If you tighten the screw too much, too tight, or at the slightly wrong angle then it tears the end off the plug making it useless...." Read more

"...I’m sure these will be fine for smaller, lighter objects but definitely not heavy items" Read more

"Absolutely the worst fixings I've ever seen. There's no way to properly tighten them; they break almost as soon as they're in the wall." Read more

"...I would always choose plasplugs as they are well designed and fit for purpose." Read more

7 customers mention ‘Screw included’0 positive7 negative

Customers dislike the screw included with the plug stopper. They say it doesn't include screws, the screw goes to the second section and it simply snaps under. The plug stopper is acceptable but expensive without the screws, and the screw just obliterates the plug wings when tightened.

"Only downside are there are no screws it's just the plugs. I purchased these on a deal so great value for money." Read more

"...Screws weren’t included. The wings don’t grip...." Read more

"...advised, pushed plug in (loose in wall) and then the screw just obliterates the plug wings when tightened...." Read more

"...Unfortunately they are useless due to design, screw goes to second section and it simply snaps under tension meaning the screw is only being held by..." Read more

I have been looking for a product that can hold my 55 inch TV on a plasterboard wall and this worked out pretty well for me. It is a solid and cheap product and does the job perfectly.

I've used just about every plug going that's claimed to be the best for plasterboard and these have come out on top. Will say they are cheaper at screwfix, however, amazon can't be beat on convenience

Didn’t have much luck with these as each one I used broke before it secured in place. Possible be better if they came with the correct screws to make them work and not break.

Used this on a plasterboard wall and worked a treat. It was plasterboard infront of breeze block with a small gap between. These worked excellently and would buy again!

They're useless!

Putting up an IKEA closet system so need support strength. First eight I put in for support number one, and three broke using just hand-tightening! Useless and fragile! Took them all out and will find something (much!) better. So annoyed as it puts me behind with putting the closet system up until I find something stronger.

I use these to hang wall bookshelves. Not the floating kind, the ones that have classy looking supports. Anyways, they hold up well. I have half a dozen wall bookshelves and each one has 12-20 hardcover books on them. Been using these for about a decade through 2 moves and never have any problems

The lightest yet strongest 'drywall' anchor available
Reviewed in Australia on 4 March 2024

These plasterboard anchors are easily the best I have ever used since the invention of "drywall" plasterboard. Truly unbeatable, FULL STOP! No not yet, they a fabulous in concrete as well - a double whammy.

Great anchors!

I love the PlasPlug anchors, both ¼" and ⅜". They are the only ones I'll use anymore. They work great, are easy tom install and hold much better than comparable plastic anchors sold in the big box stores.

Ottimo il materiale. Usati per fissare una tenda a ventaglio da cortile che non stava su col vento. Fissato il tutto con viti truciolari e con questi tasselli tiene benissimo, facili da inserire e perfetti per ogni esigenza. Prezzo ottimo. Direi per qualità e prezzo e tempi di consegna, consiglio vivamente questo acquisto.
