Great product, but consider using alternate drywall anchors
I used this product to secure two bookcases to the wall. Overall, I was very pleased with the product. I think the hardware is quite strong and the installation was not too difficult.I did give it a 4/5 on installation because of one thing: the included drywall anchors did not work well for me. After drilling a hole and tapping in the drywall anchor, I screwed the included screw into the anchor, but it never tightened up. I believe that the drywall anchor was able to rotate within the hole and was therefore not providing enough resistance for me to drive the screw any further. I wound up using some drywall anchors and screws from a hardware store (purchased for just a few bucks) and those worked fine, so it wasn't a big deal. It's possible that I just had a glitch with the one drywall anchor I tried, but I think that this particular anchor design doesn't have much resistance to rotation. I prefer the self-drilling drywall anchors because the seem to be much more secure.There was also one part of the installation diagram that I wasn't sure about. From the instructions, it looks like the strap should come from the bottom of tab attached to the wall. However, I found it easier to attach the tab in such a way that the strap came from the top instead. To attach it the way the instructions show, I think I would have had to either make a half-twist in each strap, or unclip the strap from the part that attaches to the furniture, flip it around, and clip it back in. I don't think it makes much difference either way, so I just did it the easier way (with the strap coming from the top instead of the bottom).In summary, I was able to install the product without too much difficulty, it looks like it will hold really well, and it came at a good price, so I would recommend it. Maybe just have some of your own drywall anchors on hand just in case the included ones give you trouble.

Well built at a reasonable price
At a little over $1 a strap, or $2 a set, this is a great bargain for a solid product.They are relatively easy to install. You will need a drill, ruler/tape and a level at minimum if you want everything to be somewhat straight - but after assembling all the tools it doesn't take too long for a single person to install by self, easier with two because the other can hold things while one marks.I wasn't sure what to expect since with the straps being nylon and the actual anchors being plastic, but everything seems pretty solid. Both seem well enough made for holding a reasonably heavy pice of furniture in place. I am not 100% sure if I would secure a super top heavy bookcase with a known history of tipping using these, though they probably would work, but for my purposes of earthquake/opening a draw too quickly protection for tall bookshelves they are working out great.All the installation hardware the straps come with seem like decently sourced/made metal screws and bolts. Also comes with dry wall screws if you can't find a stud, these perfectly acceptable and I used them just fine for the job, though I have seen slightly better ones.Overall pretty satisfied and would recommend to others.

Works for Small Furniture
Bought these to anchor down some storage bin shelves holding my daughter's toys. The adjustment straps made it very easy to line up with the wall studs and keep the storage units cleanly stood up right next to one another. The hardware bag provided a good mix of screws, washers, etc. to fit my furniture. Very easy to install and works as advertised.

Great product, AMAZING Customer Service
First of all, I have to comment on the customer service of Skyla Homes. Shortly after I ordered this item, I got a notification from Amazon that is had been lost during shipping (I wish they would quit using the unreliable USPS). Amazon issued a full refund, but then Skyla Homes got in contact with me and offered to send me a set absolutely free of charge for my trouble! Customer Service like this is hard to come by nowadays, so props to them!As for the product itself...so far so good. Very easy to install, simple instructions, and includes any and all parts you could possibly need. Took me less than 10 minutes to secure my tall bookshelf to my wall, giving me peace of mind with my 10-month-old who has started crawling around and pulling herself up to furniture. Highly recommend this product, and this company!

Good quality and work very well
After having a 55 inch TV and 60 inch wide dresser nearly fall on me (luckily caught both before they crashed to the floor), I bought these straps to fasten the dresser to the wall and the TV to the dresser. Install was quick and easy. Now that everything is secured, I feel much more confident that neither the TV note dresser will fall on my son or me.The strap length is more than adequate, the material feels study, and the plastic ends seem to be pretty durable. Metal ends would probably be even better but these should be just fine for most usage situations.

I like the straps
I like the straps, the instructions were quite clear (not sure why some reviews say otherwise), and I like that all the needed hardware came with it. Before you install, do some research to understand where your studs are, their thickness and measure several times before you drill and install. If you find the stud, the 1 long screw is plenty.Having said all this, I have 2 tall bookcases each being supported by 2 straps, and I'm not planning to hang on them as my weight is 2x more than the bookcase (while it's empty of course!) just to test them out. I pulled a bit on the straps to test and seemed fine. Make sure you follow instructions - the height of the buckle that you screw into the wall should be 6 inches below the buckle that goes into your TV/dresser - that way the strap teeth dig into the strap and it won't be loosey goosey.

Great value and THEY WORK.
We have an 11 month old who is pulling up on EVERYTHING he can. These straps are durable, easy to install, and they WORK. I feel safe that I can turn my head just for a moment and know that his bookshelf won’t come crashing down. I was unable to rip the screws out of studs to try and get the dresser to tip.ALL of the hardware you need for installation is included. All of the screws, wall anchors, etc.Great value. Definitely a must purchase for every family with children.
