Excellent product! Purchased at 2021 OSH to secure my RV7 and held my A/C in place during a significant storm. Highly recommended!

Worked like a champ out on a dry lakebed. I any improvement would be in the form of ratcheting straps. Otherwise, it is great.

THE CLAW TIEDOWN KIT +
Strong and lightweight. Easy to use.
Good kit. Works as advertised.
Works like a charm. Bought it as a back up tie down system and have had to use it twice the first week.
Fine product, easy to use. Have bought three, for three different locations. Would buy again and recommend to anyone that is considering buying this item.
This is the second set of tie downs I’ve bought for use in two locations. The Claw works wonderfully and I’ve been very happy with it.
Looks well made. One addition would be a clip to allow you to easily remove the rope from the claw and attach it to an airport tie down system
It’s a bit expensive and a bit heavy but it works well in the rocky soils common in new England which can be a problem for screw anchors. I need only 2 so spares are less of a problem. The reported breakages of anchors are a concern, however.
Nice kit, works good, but I also had one of the nails heads come off. Whats the deal there? No spare parts available at Spruce for this item.

Each stake is approximately 10-1/2 inches long. Fully extended diameter is approximately 21 inches.
Total weight of the Claw kit is 8 lbs.
With any tie down system, it is only as good as the soil you put it in. The system works fine in frozen ground but not in pure ice. As for snow, performance will depend on the type of soil and the saturation level.
