 Luv the Anchor November 4, 2008
C. Staniforth (Minnesota)
This sand anchor was perfect. We used it at 4 different types of beaches with different gusts of winds and it stayed in the sand. It does help to pile up beach sand around it (wind it waaay down in the sand) and we leaned our cooler along side of the anchor and umbrella so it held the whole setup even better.

The grip bars to turn anchor in the sand could be sturdier, it feels as though they may break off. But, if careful, the anchor works great once in the sand.
Search no further - this is what you need! September 8, 2008
Happy Camper (New Jersey)
Does this sound like you? You're planning a nice, relaxing trip to the beach. You've got all of your gear, including a super-duper beach umbrella. You get there, and you dig like mad to stick the umbrella into the sand, and then what happens? About 20 minutes later, you're running down the beach as your (formerly clean, pristine) umbrella topples end over end away from you. Children laugh and adults snicker as you drag what-used-to-be-a-nice-umbrella back up the beach. You need one device, my friends, and only one device - this sand anchor. I was dubious that such a small, simple corkscrew gizmo would work, but trust me, I'll be giving these away as gifts to fellow family beachgoers at Christmastime (and they're a tough crowd to please!!). Do yourself a favor, buy this and be happy!!

E. Cornatzer (Pumpkin Center NC)
This sand anchor was easy to use and worked great. The week at the beach was much more enjoyable when I did not have to worry about the umbrella flying away across the beach. I wish I had bought one years ago. It was inexpensive and made a great addition to my beach cart.

Just returned from vacation at the Jersey shore. Used our new sand anchor for the first time and we were disappointed. We followed the directions and put the umbrella in the anchor. There was a light breeze blowing but it was nowhere near the 30 mph that the product claims it can withstand. Within an hour, the anchor began to loosen and soon after the umbrella blew off its stand. I would not recommend this product.
