5 out of 5 stars The best   April 7, 2007
S. Nault (Boston, MA)
21 out of 21 found this review helpful

Simply the best tent stake on the market today. I've been a Scoutmaster for 23 years and have gone through dozens of different designs of tent stakes looking for the most perfect one out there: this is it. They can be bought for about $2 ea. If you look around you can find cheaper copies sold in different colors but unless you're buying them by the hundred as I am, it's not worth the search. The three sided design grabs the soil, placed sideways it hold in sand and snow. The anodized aluminum is very lightweight but drives into the hardest ground. ...and the lifetime warranty means you'll never have to pay for a tent stake ever again!


5 out of 5 stars best alum stake around   December 24, 2007

by far, the best alum tent stakes I've ever owned. The tri-leg design is the extra reinforcement it needs (which many don't have) to drive into just about any type soil. The only upgrade I can think of would be to go with the same design in titanium... which I have, but now that I've got these, I don't think the strength improvement and minor weight savings justifies the excessive cost of the titanium variety. Definitely a great product.

Excellent product. Purchased for weight reduction during our camp outs. Could not improve if I wanted.


5 out of 5 stars a less expensive alternative   May 22, 2009

The product is as good as any of the reviewers suggest but there is an alternative, the COLEMAN ALUNMINUM TENT STAKES 4 in a pack for 7 bucks at THE SPORTS AUTHORITY (a chain sporting goods store), in appearance and material they are identical to the MSR BRAND. I bought 12 for 21 bucks and I'm super happy with the purchase. Rather you go with the MSR or save a few bucks with the coleman model #2000001318 I believe you'll be happy with either.


5 out of 5 stars Much Better Than Plastic   September 20, 2008
F. M. Pepoon (Roseville, CA USA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

We've camped on all kinds of surfaces from grass to gravel to hardpan, and these stakes work very well for every surface. Unlike the plastic stakes that so often come with tents, these will not break, split, or bend. These are better than the steel stakes with plastic heads, because as you know, the plastic heads are easily bent and broken. These stakes go into the ground with relative ease, and you can hit 'em with a mallet if the ground is that hard. Removal is fairly easy; if the ground is hard, hook the string over your mallet handle and pull. Out they come! We've never had a problem with these, and we have tried just about every kind of stake available.
