I use post stakes from time to time. I have always sourced them locally from the box stores. They typically come in two grades. A budget version and a heavier duty version, something like the Simpson brand that tends to be twice the price. So I do have experience with the welded style also. These are functionally the same but you do have to fasten the base to the stake which is a little inconvenient but then again, they supply you with an abundant amount of fasteners that you will probably have some left over.I used one of these yesterday. one of them was a little bent out of the box but not a big deal. This isn't the strongest metal or thickest gauge that's out there but in the budget category of hardware, that's to be expected. I have very rocky and compacted soils here and I whacked the daylights out of it with a sledgehammer repeatedly and no problems.I typically use these for just a single post, non-permanent non-structural (obviously) application like a sign post or something like that.

At first glance, these post anchors are impressive - the box they came in is very heavy when you go to open it. The items arrive in four pieces with a small bag of hardware for assembling. There is not a single word of instruction included, although most people should be able to figure it out. They have been all individually wrapped to protect the powder coat finish on them - that detail is appreciated especially given their weight. The concept is great - create a sharp end for piercing through the ground. By not digging a hole, the soil should stay firm and hold the bracket and thus the post. As you may observe, the quality and condition of your soil will play a great role in how well these function for you. My concern comes from living in the Northeast. These do not extend long enough to get past the frost line. I am concerned that the frost will upheave the brackets and make the post wobbly or worse. In this area, they may need some reinforcement such as concrete to hold them firm and steady. I think for many people, these will be an awesome solution for them, and I fully plan to give them a try despite my concerns, but until the frost is out of my ground, I won't be able to test these fully. I will report back on their success or failure, but if frost is not an issue for you, I would not hesitate to pick up a set of these and give them a try.

The spike of this fence post anchor is extra long. This assures that the inserted post will remain stable. So stable in fact, that I used it to support a corner fencepost. Heavy rain and 50 mph gusts haven't caused the post to sway in the least.This fence post anchor is constructed with heavy steel and very expertly welded at the seems where its four corners meet. The black powder-coating helps to protect it from rust. I'm very pleased with this product.

Pair of fence post spikes with hardware to mount your post. These come separated in four parts. Simply bolt two together and you have a unit.I found the spikes to be a little less thick than I thought they would be. The metal could be sturdier but I guess these work fine since I'm a novice and I haven't seen them in operation yet.

The quality is very poor; it broke after just a short use and is no longer usable.

I'd been considering getting some of those "feet" pads at the building center to build a fence gate for our planned raised bed garden area, which will be fenced in to keep beasties out (Deer laid waste to our regular garden the last 2 years and we can't hunt them in town) - But the opportunity to get these (which I never knew existed before) came along, and I snapped up a couple. They will work wonderfully for the needed fence gate I will be wanting to build without having to dig holes and permanently set them in ground. Indeed, I may get an additional set of these to put up temporary barn shelter for garden implements (Which have to sit out in the weather all year around otherwise) as I can't get a permit for a shed or lean-to in that flood-prone location but could put up temporary post & beam structure.

The spikes are supposed to work but didn’t work on our soil. It should drive down pretty quickly but not working out. It kept turning sideways without being bent. So it couldn’t be installed for use.

I have a few raised box gardens and I rotate what I raise in each yearly, so I don't want permanent fixtures in them. I will be using these stakes with 4" x 4" wooden posts to provide a foundation to attach supports across so I can drape shade cloth over certain plants like my cucumbers, or to use as a temporary trellis for vining plants like squash and gourds to climb. When the season is done, I can pull them out of the ground for winter storage and put them in a new location the following year. These are sturdy and come with good quality fasteners for assembly. A simple solution for my garden's needs!
