10 Inch Steel Tent

<Update five months after purchase> Sad to say that these sturdy stakes rust. I own glampsites (luxury camping) and whatever I use for my business stays where I put it for a while unlike regular camping where tents go up for a few days and then dismantled. It's difficult to yank rusted stakes out of the ground, so much so that some of the green tangs broke. I'm still on a learning curve with my business and these taught me to look for the words "rust proof" in the description. These are top of the line stakes. A two hour storm whipped up without much warning and these guys never budged in 30 mph winds. That nice metal tang at the top takes a beating without damaging the green plastic tops. I misplaced a hammer to pry them out of the ground and used one of them to pry the rest of the stakes from the ground. I would never have tried that with the cheapie stakes that come with even the best tents. These things are solid and heavy. Definitely happy with my choice. I bought extra to share with camping buddies - there's always someone who can't find their stakes or throw away bent ones and need more. They're probably going to do just what I did and buy these things. There's so many to choose from but trust me, you want these.

At $2.00 per four stakes, this is a great deal. Local stores seem to always want to charge me $1.00 per stake, so when I saw these on Amazon I picked up $20 worth. I'm replacing all of my cheap, thin, bent, weak tent stakes with these. I have had some of these for years, and while people say the plastic is "prone to breaking", I've found that to be slightly unfair. The plastic will break if you run this stake all the way into some thick ground and then try to pry it out by just the tab, but if you use it correctly and leave a good couple of inches above ground (remember to run it in at an angle so the metal shaft itself is what holds the tent in place instead of the plastic end) then you can pull it out easily and they'll last for a good long time. I'll never use those old cheap stakes again. I love these things and think that anyone who owns a tent should immediately purchase some to replace all of their crap included tent stakes. Your other option is to just buy a bunch of these really large nails and bend them into the L-shape of a typical tent stake, but it's a lot less work to buy these.

I use these for a farmers market tent, and they work great. They go into grass easily, and pull out easily with the finger holds. They don't require a hammer or gloves unless the soil is very compacted. Put them in at a strong angle for a little more support.

When I purchased a Coleman Hooligan 3 Tent for a holiday camping trip, it came with the usual thin, L-shaped stakes that were easy to bend with my bare hands. Before the trip I ended up buying a set of the Coleman 10-inch steel stakes to replace all of the original stakes that came with my tent. Just by looking at the new steel stakes, you can tell that there's a big difference. The steel stakes are heavy, almost twice as long, a with a larger diameter compared to the stock stakes, which helped when some of my stake positions were on softer soil; there was no way that the thin stock stakes would stay in place, but the extra thickness, weight, and length of the steel stakes grabbed a good hold to the ground. The molded ends have a hole and a tab to make tying down tent ropes a breeze. The hole is also meant to be used with Coleman's tent stake puller, which I also bought in a set along with a rubber mallet, tent brush and dustpan (here is the item: Coleman Tent Kit ) At about $4/set of 4, that comes out to one dollar per stake. My tent needed 12 stakes, but larger tents (such as family-sized, multiple room tents) will need more stakes, so the cost can go up fast - this is the only reason why I didn't give them a full 5-stars. Other than that, the 10" steel stakes outdo the stock stakes on all levels.

Bought these to supplement the cheaper stakes that came with our tent. They worked great and were better quality than the original ones. Used once and no complaints so far.

I've owned these stakes for 6 years now and use them a few times a year. I added some nylon cord to the top of each stake and use that to pull the stake out. This puts stress on the shank of the stake and not the green plastic which is not very durable. I use a 1lb rubber mallet to hammer the stake into the ground and then use the wood handle through the nylon cord when I need to remove. This allows you to place 2 hands on the handle and use your legs to pull stubborn stakes (I've used all my strength before with this method and the nylon cord held strong). For those wanting to do the same mod, I used a constrictor knot to tie the cord to the shank and a double fisherman to connect the cord ends.

Las estacas son resistentes y se sienten de buena calidad, agarran bien la tienda de campaña, yonlosnuso también para agarrar sombrillas al suelo. Buen producto.

A very good and strong tent stake/peg ideal for the camping or gardening enthusiast

Got these to hold up our gazebo against crazy PEI winds...these are amazing and did the job perfectly 👌

I tested and researched pegs for such a long time and these really do the job WELL (They are pretty highly rated in the camping reviews all over) and are worth the price. They are strong enough that rocks won't break or bend them, the plastic hooks will not break when being hammered hard or pulled on. Their length makes them very solid in the ground. I tried many configurations : Tent, mosquito net, A-Frame tarps of many sizes, in rainy conditions, strong winds, in sandy grounds, lawns, gravel. They will hold just about anything if you know how to stake them right. Their only downside is because they are long ; if you use these on a public campground, make sure you know where the underground plumbing / electrical is because they will go right through.

Son grandes y de buena material, ideales para cambiar las estacas que bien por default, hasta ahorita no me han fallado buen relación calidad precio.
