Great demonstration but the Ook hook with the oval nail in plate was installed incorrectly. The hole in the plate should be moved up to where the anchor goes into the wall and the hook is centered in the oval plate. Then nailed in. This allows a lot of weight to be placed on the hanger that rests against the plate. It actually worked out well for me. I have a very heavy shadow box hanging on one and it is a solid hook. 🍻

@@ToolReviewZone I would like to thank TRZ for the support and opportunity to do this. As well as everyone else in the community for the patients for it to happen ✌️✌️
Good video. The metal hollow wall anchors that you hammered in and they destroyed the back side, I agree that's terrible but I've had great results with them holding tremendous loads if a hole is drilled for them instead of hammering them in.
I agree I use these all the time in commercial work hanging pannel heaters and hand dryers and never had an issue but you have to drill first and use a setting tool to anchor them in.
Came here to say this. These anchors are awesome when pre-drilled. They've been my go-to for years when installing something significant, such as tv mounts (I always catch at least one stud, as well).
The Pop-Toggle comes with a small prod designed to engage the retention mechanism. After inserting the toggle you push the prod through the hole to 'pop' the wings out. THEN you can drive a screw. The instructions are printed right there on the package. It's amazing how many reviewers on UA-cam miss this.
Yep. I noticed he failed to pop it open, then said he hated them. They are the only ones I use for heavy duty applications. Funny, but the one with the giant wall plate was installed wrong too. Why make a review video, when all you're doing is showcasing your ignorance???
Interesting vid...but opinion based on fastener installation ease & damage upon removal. The purpose of these drywall fasteners is to mount items on the wall w/o the use of the studs. You should consider a follow up vid testing their lateral (and vertical) strength which is what their intended purpose.
In your intro you had a flip toggle but didn’t show them. I use them all the time as an AV installer when a TV bracket can only hit one stud. They hold more weight than anything, but require a large hole 1/2”. You can also use them on block or steel studs.
Definitely a good video. I had to remind myself that this channel primarily does tool, hardware and power equipment reviews. The reason I say that, is because I found myself really hoping that you would hang a luggage scale or some plate weights from each one after install to see how it performed. All that said, I still did smeeEessh that like button!!
For the most part on home Depot anchors I have been using the yellow wallclaw... That was really interesting seeing how it performs on the backside of the sheetrock
I'm pretty sure you installed that first Ook device plate upside down. The plate should be flush against the drywall and works as a stabilizing bracket to the hook. If installed correctly, this one will definitely support more weight than any of the others, so you have to consider what you are trying to hang in determining which fastener is the best option. I wouldn't use it to hang a simple picture frame, but for a large decorative mirror or shadow box this would be a go to device.
Good vid. It's interesting to see the back of the drywall and just how damaging some of those anchors can be. 😬 Oh, and I see that DeWalt PowerStack battery trying to be all nass and inconspicuous like on the end of that new driver. 🤩 👍
Real nice like Clint, I use the metal Z anchor at work for pictures and a toggle through metal studs (over kill) for heavier items. I got the new anchors you like “Real nice like “ thanks for another great video.
Wow. Interesting vid. Entertaining too! Didn't know there were so many types of anchors. I'm looking for one for shelving. You saved me money and time. Thanks a bunch!
😂 This video helped me a lot as I stood so confused staring at a wall of hooks at pini ace. This video also made me laugh a lot.😂 Good job and keep it up!
Your new favorite is also MY new favorite AND...I'm one of those folks that helped Amazon sell out of em. :) I ordered them after your previous video about them. Thanks for the comparisons. It just proves that our new favorite is deserving of it's prestigious place on the list. LOL
That driller toggle looks pretty sweet. I carry a lot of toggle bolts and the white screw in anchors in my bins. I remember back in the day when toggle bolts sucked ballz and had a flat head slot only. You would always stab the he'll out of your finger with the driver bit trying to get the freaking thing to screw in the wall.
I was not aware of the Wall claw. I think that is my new favorite because of strength. Maybe the Cobra. A long time ago we used the Molly anchors which were like the Everbuilt and they were great. The difference is that you have to pre-drill them in not hammer them. I think if you pre-drill the Everbuilt you would not blow out the paper at the back. Then they might be great. I hate the wing nut or butterfly bolt type. Although they are very strong because you spread the wight out on the largest surface area. You have to put whatever your mounting on the bolt before you insert the butterfly into the pre-drilled hole. Mostly I use the metal conical self drill in with a screw gun. Fastest and 50 lbs holding power. Here is a tip. Pre-run a drywall screw of at least 1-1/4" into the drywall to make sure you don't hit a stud or metal. That way you don't get a blowout.
Great review! One that you don't show, "Snap Toggles," is a safer alternative for molly bolts, because you can make the spreading back part be vertical which is much stronger than the random position of the spreading part of the mollybolt.
and the one he had on the "table" was the home depot version of Snap Toggles that I don't like. It only has one plastic run down through the wall to hold it in place and in use, they just end up losing the toggle into the wall. The snap toggles, with their dual plastic holders, rarely break off and fall into the wall requiring a second, third, fourth one to finally get you secured - especially when you are putting up and taking off an item a couple of times.
@@TheSidneySmith yes you need two plastic stems to make sure the anchor is parallel to the wall as you pull the zipper tight. Otherwise it gets stuck, and breaks off.
I much prefer these to traditional mollys. The best part is they are reusable. They will stay when the screw is pulled out and the item can be removed from the wall.
I think you did the Pop Anchor a disservice……it holds the rated loads very capably. You asked how to remove? All packs come with the yellow pop tool that collapses the Pop Anchor. Now you can remove without tearing up the drywall.
Over time, the monkey hook cuts a vertical slit into the wall and then fails. I’m looking for something to use in place of it. Can I reuse the slit/hole, or just fill it and move my wall hanging?
The Everbuilt and like said brand are great for campers and Rv's. Drill a pilot hole for them don't just hammer them in the paneling or your going to have a large repair to fix. Great video, love the humor.
Thanks Clint really looking forward to watching this video right now. I know project farm did a video on drywall anchors and of course he is very thorough but his video included all types of brands and you are limiting it it looks like to home Depot and that's awesome because that's where I shop I'm not ordering anchors from Amazon and eBay, so this video will hopefully eliminate all the BS brands from Amazon and focus solely on what I will see on those raxit HD so I know exactly what to look for next time 💥💯
I have a 66" heavy mirror held up with the ook ones with all the nails. You didn't exactly install that one correctly. The slot in the plate goes right where the anchor comes out of the wall. The plate sorta sits behind the hook. The nails although they can be pulled out fairly easy they do actually work very well. I'm gonna give your Amazon ones a try for some smaller pictures. And the anchor that squeeze the center together like a cross actually work very well if a hole is drilled for them vs. pounding them through. That ook wire one is a unique one that looks good to try
I didn't see you use the long wight colored plastic one that you had all the way to the left at the beginning of the video. Did it have a higher weight rating?
I've used most of those before. Not a fan of any of those plastic-bit ones. The Oof with the two push pins are wonderful for me. My wife changes her mind about 80 times when hanging stuff on the wall. Those make my patch work almost too easy. That said, hellllooooo monkey hooks. I have a sculptor buddy who makes stuff with big-ass nails. It is heavy. I have a 3m claw holding that up. Before I found those I had to run a wire between two studs. 99/100 the misses choice to hang things is never on a stud. Most of those can handle little things, but if need something with strength, don't cheap out. It makes a difference.
The one I prefer the most is wingit. I have mounted tv brackets on walls, mounted safety grab bars in tile showers. They have like 300 lbs weight capacity.
I've got a towel rack and a 85" LED TV I'm hanging today, and I'm going to use the 3M claw hook that rated well in this video. I'll let you know how it works out. Thanks
I bought the ones you think are the best and I love them too. Just drive with a hammer and easily removable. However, when I ordered them they were out of stock and took almost a month to get. Aside from the delivery time I also think they are the best.
@@blazayblazay8888 I'm not sure what they are called but follow the link in the see more section of the video description. It's the one that says best drywall anchor and takes you straight to Amazon site. :)
I was looking for the original vid where you showed your favorite anchor and came across this one. Cant believe i missed this one. I use those zip-its/EZ anchor. I never used the metal ones, id like those ones if using the screws they come with, but i like the plastic ones because i can use pretty much any screw for them since they're plastic and can use a variety of dif screws since they will cut their own threads. Those cobra ones are pretty cool too tho. Id use those. I like the ones you say are your favorite, i just wish they were sold at home depot, lowes, or somewhere local.
Lol I thought those spot markers for the 3M claws were stupid too (not sure if you were being sarcastic or not lol) then I actually used it on the back of a painting that needed two hooks. Before you had to find out where to center it then recheck the measure. Instead you put the marker on the back of the paintings 2 sawtooth hangers take off the adhesive then place it where you want it on the wall. The marker stays on the wall you draw a little dot then line up the hook and press in. Then hang the picture. Done... so much freaking easier!!
Only seen some of the them and used them toggles you still got to drill a hole but they hold a lot of wait I used on to fix a shower curtain rod for family with 10 piece of plexiglass I cut came out well still holding perfect but it's good to know there's other options that you Clint for this information
Really like your videos. However the ook drywall hanger with the metal plate you installed incorrectly and is extremely strong when installed correctly. I’ve used them many times when I had to hang giant painting or even some mirrors
I like the claw but I buy the pack of 3 cause just one M3 cost $5 but the 3 pack cost $11. So you are saving a lil bit of money and they are reusable and made out of quality metal so it's going to last. Awesome video!
I’m a huge fan of the wall claws. Those babies are the only thing strong enough to hold my toilet paper roll holder to the wall. Things get pretty intense in there so I needed something that can handle some abuse
You probably already know this but Makita came out with NEW lawn equipment. A mower, a blower, and a string trimmer. The battery lasts 2 days on the mower. 36volts but here's the catch: You can't use two 18v batteries, you power all 3 with the back pack battery. Watch me forget I was hooked up to the lawn mower when I walk away. Pricey inconvenience, I calls it.
1:43 Why I HATE anchors like this type. Simple, THEY AKWAYS GET SMEEEEESHED, when hammering into wall, or bent, or broken. Right😂 Great vid Clint, and do like those anchors you showed last anchor vid 2:09 and got some to try. The last one isn’t bad, imo They nice😊
Toggle is my go to for TV mount and shelves for security reasons. You didn't include the plain ol plastic anchors which I have been using for years. They work good enough. Going to try those new ones you top picked but they are pricey. They need smaller packs just to try them out. Good video.
I hope you're not installing anything more than a lightweight TV with just toggle bolts....especially if you are using an articulating mount. The only real time for toggle on a tv install is very large / long ones through concrete block or drilled through metal studs.
@@TheSidneySmith tvs are lighter than ever now. So far so good. I have one above the other. Anything heavier will require larger and extra anchors for support according to the weight.
I like the Everbuilt design. Been using them over 40 yrs. Way back when you could buy a box of 50, now only 3-5 per packet. Anyway, you have to drill a hole to properly install these. At least those were the instruction in the past.
Thank you! I like toggle bolts or driller toggle for shelves, the 3M claw, and the monkey Ook. If I had drywall then I would try your favorite but I mostly have lath and plaster walls, so I could imagine that splintering the horizontal lath boards, :( . PS - The first Ook installation with the "medallion" does not look like the installation picture. The medallion needs to be up higher. That said, the nails will still slip out just like you said, so it is still a dog.
I used the white drywall anchors that you screw in, had a plastic dog kennel come crashing down. The kennel weighs about 40 lbs and there was a couple sleeping bags, a spare wheel and tire to a bicycle and a couple other small items in it, I'm sure it didn't weigh much over 100 lbs! Thankfully no one was home but I was shocked and disappointed!!!
I use the extra anchors for most things including hanging bathroom accessories. A #3 bit on the gun is the best way to install them. I've used toggle bolts for microwaves and smaller cabinets where only 1 stud is available to fasten to the wall. The larger toggle with the zip tie thing you didn't show using has ratings up to 150lbs. and is nice using 6 of those on grab bars in showers if blocking isn't available. All in all everything has a different purpose. I'm not a picture hanger so not sure on those smaller ones.
I followed the link and bought the best ones. Never seen them before good find.
Hahaha, TIA in da house! 👊💪💪
@@ToolReviewZone You show the flip toggle (zip ones) but I didn't see you use it????? Those are clearly the best.

Came here to say exactly this. With a clean backside, that 'spider' style grips the hell out of the drywall.
@@tighecrovetti2844 yeah . it work. but don't buy those at Harbor Freigh. they are junk. it broke off before finish screw....

Wall claw is garbage, pulls right out under any force. Metal toggles much better
I only use the metal ez anchors. Those plastic ones are far too easy to strip. The metal ones can also go into studs.

The Claw is the winner for me. I hung a beautiful picture of Steel Panther from M3 on the wall and the Claw worked very well!
Awesomeness. Thanks for the feedback Ron!!!
This is a great idea for a video but to be really helpful you would somehow test them for pullout strength or how much weight they would hold

Fixing to plasterboard sucks.
However toggle bolts have been holding up a 55" TV but the frame took 6 heavy duty bolts.

That last one, the cobra 90 pound toggle, just note that if there is fiberglass insulation inside the wall, it can totally screw it up.
I’ve installed the no-drill anchors all over my house and I love them

Bro, Starrett Miter Saw Protractor. Look at it, i use it as a professional trim carpenter. Do a review let the people know. Love your videos
You got it brother. Appreciate the heads up!
Do you happen to have a subsequent video testing the weight capacity of your favorites to see if their claims are accurate?
Thank you 😊
I've used most of these anchors over the years, never had any issues. Just use the right one for your needs.
1:43 Why I HATE anchors like this type.
Simple, THEY AKWAYS GET SMEEEEESHED, when hammering into wall, or bent, or broken. Right😂
Great vid Clint, and do like those anchors you showed last anchor vid 2:09 and got some to try. The last one isn’t bad, imo
They nice😊
Toggle is my go to for TV mount and shelves for security reasons. You didn't include the plain ol plastic anchors which I have been using for years. They work good enough. Going to try those new ones you top picked but they are pricey. They need smaller packs just to try them out. Good video.
I hope you're not installing anything more than a lightweight TV with just toggle bolts....especially if you are using an articulating mount. The only real time for toggle on a tv install is very large / long ones through concrete block or drilled through metal studs.
@@TheSidneySmith tvs are lighter than ever now. So far so good. I have one above the other. Anything heavier will require larger and extra anchors for support according to the weight.
When I am mounting something really heavy, I have never gone wrong with the trusty toggle bolts.
Will any of these anchors support Vince? 😂
😂😂🤣😂🤣💪
lol
Hahahahahahahaha
Oompa loompa approved.
good review of each, thx,
Which one is good depends on what you want to do. Many of those were for hanging a picture rather than securing a towel bar.
The 3m claw are pretty good for small items
I like the Everbuilt design. Been using them over 40 yrs. Way back when you could buy a box of 50, now only 3-5 per packet. Anyway, you have to drill a hole to properly install these. At least those were the instruction in the past.
I really like your expressing sounds like mmmm, phhhhrrr, aaaauuu etc 😅 makes this more interesting
Good video but….I’ll wait to see what Mathais “makes” b4 rushing out to buy these store bought ones…🤪
Thank you! I like toggle bolts or driller toggle for shelves, the 3M claw, and the monkey Ook.
If I had drywall then I would try your favorite but I mostly have lath and plaster walls, so I could imagine that splintering the horizontal lath boards, :( .
PS - The first Ook installation with the "medallion" does not look like the installation picture. The medallion needs to be up higher. That said, the nails will still slip out just like you said, so it is still a dog.
I used the white drywall anchors that you screw in, had a plastic dog kennel come crashing down. The kennel weighs about 40 lbs and there was a couple sleeping bags, a spare wheel and tire to a bicycle and a couple other small items in it, I'm sure it didn't weigh much over 100 lbs! Thankfully no one was home but I was shocked and disappointed!!!
I like the video the only thing is it is missing the name of your favorite war anchor, how do I find it and what is it called?
In description below
Fischer duotec are good ones
I use the extra anchors for most things including hanging bathroom accessories. A #3 bit on the gun is the best way to install them.
I've used toggle bolts for microwaves and smaller cabinets where only 1 stud is available to fasten to the wall.
The larger toggle with the zip tie thing you didn't show using has ratings up to 150lbs. and is nice using 6 of those on grab bars in showers if blocking isn't available.
All in all everything has a different purpose. I'm not a picture hanger so not sure on those smaller ones.
