 "withstood the desert winds" 2008-11-20
By E. Rosler (NY)
I bought these stakes for my trip to Burning Man in Nevada. Apparently there are some wicked sandstorms on the playa and they suggest using foot-long rebar to keep your tent from flying away. Rebar? Seriously? Who has a supply of rebar handy? Not me. So instead I picked up a set of these.



When the sandstorm hit, winds whipping across the playa at over 50mph, my tent stayed exactly where it was. The same can't be said for my neighbors who just used the normal stakes that came with their tent.



While they ran chasing down their tent, I was able to sit in the wind and enjoy the show.

"Heavy Duty Plated Steel"? Really? These were fine going in, but bent like cardboard coming out.

Just bought these a few weeks ago (12 stakes total - 3 sets) for a trip to Joshua Tree, CA. Just returned, in the semi-hard desert sand ALL of them started bending when tapped in (using rubber mallet first, then hammer). 8 of them bent 90 degrees at the head. Ended up using the smaller, standard stakes that came with the tent. Very disappointed, as the standard stakes with the plastic tops snap easily as well, but at least the metal parts remain straight and still usable.

I just found them lacking...I like a hook or something at the end better these are just straight.

By Tyler Worman (Allentown, PA United States)
Easy to carry these in my backpack. Did not bend, held in ground well and worked great to hold down our tent in high wind.

 "Not so heavy duty" 2009-05-26
By Jeremy Pugh
I used 13 of these stakes over Memorial Day weekend and 3 of them bent. By comparison, I used 12 MSR Ground Hog stakes on a separate tent and none of them bent. Get the Ground Hogs, you'll get what you pay for: MSR Ground Hog Stake Kit.

The head/notch is a little small from some uses, but otherwise a very decent tent/rope stake. Lightweight but durable.

 "Every gram counts when you are backpacking!" 2009-04-15
By E. Tucker
I purchased these before a bike/backpacking trip to False Cape State Park in Virginia. I've got the standard tent stakes that come with every tent but needed something a bit more substantial as I was setting my tent in sand. These stakes were long enough and shaped in a way that they held admirably in the sand, didn't budge an inch. Also they are very lightweight and are easy to sink without much added effort. Every gram counts when you are backpacking. 100% Recommended!

 "Stake your claim to a secure night's sleep" 2007-07-16
By Daniel Rutkowski (Wernersville, PA USA)
Your tent will most likely include a set of "skewer" stakes. Eventually you may lose some, bend them, break them or tire of always searching for just the right location to put your stake in the ground. The only justifiable reason for Kelty to sell these is because they are better than the cheap ones that come with the tent.



The material will take more pounding, the shaft is thicker and it has sides like a pencil; this makes the stake hold in the ground better and makes it sturdier yet they don't weigh a lot.



Of course, you don't need to rush right out and replace your originals, unless you broke, bent or lost yours. Before any of those bad things happens, you should consider these if you want the best shot at securing your tent to ground under less than ideal conditions.



Best of outdoor life to you.
