Purchased to repair head liner in an F250 that glue wouldn't fix due to the old foam. This product worked great, wide enough coil to grip in the old foam.

It can easily pop up if the pets or kids like to jump onto the sofa. The screw part is easily bent and twisted. One day, I found my dog was trying to chew it. I grabbed it from his mouth. I also found one pin on the ground. Another one lay freely in the corner of the sofa without being twisted. The pin tip was upward. It looks like it popped out when my dog jumped on the sofa since I did not see holes in the cover after checking. I think if someone gets hurt on the buttock when he or she sits down.

Maybe if kids didn’t use your slip-covered couch these would hold better, but they could not keep the backrest portion of the couch cover from slipping forward, they would slowly straighten and then either pop out or the cover would rip off of them. They held well on other portions of the couch though, like the sides.

These spiral into my headliner easily and perfectly to keep it in place. While installing them, None broke, none collapsed none were too long or too short. All were identical to each other and installed very easily.The reason . I give this detail about this produ t is because i sawlots of bad feedback on other similar products saying they were broken, malformed, not sharp and broke while installing, particulary when used for headliners, like I needed them for. However Using this product, was 100% easy and successful, and it is one of the cheapest products of it's kind that I found.

My car is nearly 20 years old and she has many issues. One of the most irritating was that the headliner fabric separated from the backing and drooped down. I tried every adhesive spray, tons of different glues, carpet tape, etc. and none of it would stick. I live in VA and it is hot and swampy humid which I'm sure didn't help the adhesives. Then I stumbled across a suggestion to use pins like this and decided to give it a go. YAY! It really is not attractive at all, but it is a million times better than not being able to see because the liner is hanging in your face. These pins were faster, cheaper, easier, and more effective than any other junk I threw money at. I'm keeping them around for future unexpected upholstery drooping!

I was so pleased to find these, such a good concept. However please be aware that they are not heavy duty. I wanted to use them to keep the throw on my husband's recliner from shifting around so I would not have to keep adjusting it all day long, but the pins are not sturdy enough to withstand the constant pull and the spirals straightened out into straight pins and one's head came off. So I figure you need to use a whole row of them and they will do the job. 3 or 4 is not sufficient with what I was trying to do with them . And 50 is not too many to a package as I first thought. I was wondering what i will do with them all. I am pleased to report there is no damage to the upholstery fabric when they pull out. They did stay in for days before getting wrecked and you can compress them again into spirals and stick them back in. I used more the second time around.

The headliner was sagging so bad that the entire rear window was blocked. Tried Scotch 77 adhesive but it didn't work and left dark blotches on the headliner material, which you can see in the pictures near the top corners of the rear window, (and a few other spots).But the pins worked great, and since the little package came with 50 of them there was more than enough.They were a little bit too long as most of them were just under 1/2 inch but they are easily compressed with needle nose pliers and it only took a few minutes to compress a dozen of them. Took a before and after picture of one of the pins so you can see the difference. In the [slightly blurry] before picture, the pin is about 7/16", and in the after picture the same pin was compressed to just under 1/4".The pins are sharp enough to easily go through the headliner but it takes a little work to get them to pierce and grab the material you want the headliner secured to. There is actually 2 layers between the roof and the headliner. There is the thin sponge like foam the headliner is glued to from the factory, and above that foam layer is a sturdier material, (like a thin piece of laminated cardboard). Not sure exactly what it is, but it's what you want the pins to go thru to secure the headliner to the roof of the car. It takes a little fiddling to get the pins to pierce that, but it's not that hard, and once that is pierced you just twist them all the way in, and then move on to the next pin. Took less then 15 minutes to fix my sagging headliner with the pins so I am very happy.Hope this helps keep someone from getting the same type of pins specifically labeled as headliner fasteners and ridiculously overpriced for only 8 or 12 pins.

I purchased these pins to hold my bed skirt in place. The twisty part helps to keep the pin from popping out when it's put under pressure; I did notice that sometimes getting the pin past the bed skirt and into the box spring below it was tough. That's understandable, though, if you think about the fact that I basically had to poke a small hole in the box spring to get it to go in. Once I was through that initially, they twisted in very nicely and have done an excellent job of holding my bed skirt in place. I had two pins break on me when I was trying to get them in, but 2 out of probably 25 used is not bad in my opinion.The top of the pins are mostly clear/slighly opaque, and on top of the cream fabric of my bed skirt it is not noticeable unless you're sitting on the floor looking for them. If you're using the pins to hold a corner of something in place, I recommend using 3 or more in a triangle shape around the corner to keep your fabric in place (picture attached). Overall I'm happy with my purchase, and I'd buy them again!
