"It is a little long, but all I did was as some tape to one end of it and it fits nice and snug now and does not rattle one bit."
"I bought a set from a retail store but discovered the pin was not long enough to work with a class IV hitch."
"I know a lot of reviews have taken away points for this lock being too long. I went to Lowes, picked up a pack of #12 O Rings with 5/8 inch inner diameter, and slid about 5 of them on the lock and put it on."
"Overall this product is the most solid hitch reciever lock I have ever used or seen. I will keep the extra one for a spare for the main hitch reciever lock."
"Bought it to use on an extender for a Thule 2 bike tray rack on the back of my Jeep Wrangler (Tire is in the way and can't open back door) Thule uses a threaded bolt and it makes it very stiff and wobble free so I was worried this lock would wobble."
"I purchased this lock for a cargo hauler that I put on the back of my 4-Runner for the family vacation."
"There is some spacing on each side, causing it to slide a bit, but not a deal breaker."

"It's on the smallish size, but just the proper size to hold a standard house key. I highly recommend that everyone that lives in a house to buy one of these."
"This product is authentic looking."
"I bought two of these from different Amazon sellers because they looked slightly different."
"Love the person who invented this - great place to hide a house key without it at all being obvious - blends right in to the lawn area. The cover on the back is white plastic and easily pulls out to retrieve the key."
"The picture shown presents the rock upside down with the key and white plastic bottom (which fits into the rocks underside like say it was a piggy bank) next to the rock surface right side up."
"Hide your key in plain sight, and avoid that future fight with your significant other."
"It even has a pretty rough texture, like a rock, so it blends right into the environment. This way, for whatever reason a cat or dog knocked over the rock and exposed the bottom (which I painted black), the worse thing that would happen is someone got into the shed where there would be no reason to think there was a key to the house in there, let alone where in the shed. Anyway, this beats wrapping a key in aluminum foil and burying it in the garden."

"We bought out trolley on an online auction site and the whole Zipline was a lot cheaper and with another 150 feet of cable to make another one or replace down the road."
"Product looks and functions as described."
"Great steel cable."
"Went to buy my nephews a zip line and found it was much cheaper to buy the cable separately from the zip line accessories rather than as a whole."
"I bought this cable for making a 70 foot zip line in my backyard between two trees."
"The cable arrived as scheduled."
"I used my roll of cable to make a zipline in the backyard."

Find Best Price at Amazon"worked perfectly for what I needed.....seems the description didn't mention it comes with a master link, so that was a nice surprise."
"As you can easily confirm by thought experiment or actually trying it, roller chains generally need to be fastened to both ends of the gate to work properly. The link itself fit properly and was easy to install, once you remove one pin from the stainless roller chain. An effective way to do this in the field requires a hammer, a punch, and a hex nut."
"While using my snow blower last winter, I found a couple rocks that I wish I hadn't, and the end result was breaking my snow blower's drive chain."
"I put the predator 6.5 hp on a mini bike that only had a 3hp."
"so far so good."

Best Hardware Bumpers
MADE IN THE USA WITH SUPERIOR ADHESIVE PERFORMACE!
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"After enduring months of cabinet slamming, I finally decided to talk to my neighbors to resolve the problem only to find out they had no door bumpers - or at best - the really flat ones."
"This slows the impact and spreads the impact, quieting the sound more effectively than the simple dome bumpers they replaced."
"When removing the bumper from the backing sheet, this thin, clear, taffy-like adhesive goo would rather stay on the backing sheet, thus often pulls away from the bumper where it belongs."
"Very unique design."
"These bumpers work quite well and were exactly what I expected."
"(water heater). The good news is that I bought them for my chopping board to begin with. There's a little bit of a bounce if I thud the board hard enough, and it doesn't slide unless there's a puddle underneath."
"I scraped felt bumpers off before I painted and they were so disgusting, they pick up dirt and grease as the years go on so I knew I didn't want that kind again. I have used the hard rounded plastic bumpers on a few of my rental property kitchen cabinets, but they are still somewhat loud."
"These are much quieter, though to be fair I do not have solid wood cabinets (they're separate parts), so they will never be "quiet" when they close."

"If you own a dangler (Munroe, Tek, Gear-pull, pickpocket, etc), you should definitely own some of these Micro-Lock S Biners."
"I try not to carry a lot of crap on my keychain because it's annoying and messy but I have to have my car key, My KeyBar (key organizer, google it, it's amazing), small flash light and one whimsical item, in this case it's a keychain from a friend."
"The image I am looking at right now, the one on which I made my purchase, shows two Nite Ize S-biners of size 1; what I got in the mail was one S-biner of size 2, so you tell me how many starts I should put?"
"I also use the biner to hold my extra car key. The safety feature on my keyless entry won't let me lock the door while my car is running so I need to lock it manually in the winter to heat up my car before I leave in the morning and the s biner once again makes it a snap."
"Other reviewers complained about these being too small, but I think they are too big to be comfortable in my pocket and not secure enough to hang my keys from when hooked to a belt loop."
"(BTW - it's a very crowded keychain - three keys, car lock opener, knife, flashlight, Ti toothpick, 4 bit screwdriver, mini pliers and customer rewards fob."
"Love these little things."

Best Lock Bolts

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"Something to pay attention to: before you tighten everything down, make sure the turning mechanism moves smoothly. After you mount the main locking mechanism inside & out, experiment with locating the "surface strike plate" so it matches well with the deadbolt, and that it's far enough away from the digital lock so there isn't slack in the door being able to open a little even when it's locked - don't want the door to be ajar enough to let outside air in when the locking mechanism is locked.And I made the hole a little bigger that the "spindle" goes through (in the middle hole) so it would turn smoothly (I didn't quite make it big enough when I first drilled it)."
"One reviewer pointed out, and I tested and confirmed it's true, that the way this style of lock works means someone can enter the digits you choose for a password in any order - which makes it much less secure."
"Be sure you have the required area to seat the base unit on the door (mine had plenty of space)."
"Durable lock for old aluminum sliding glass door."
"I have a park model travel trailer that I use as a summer home."
"Installation was fairly straightforward as long as you paid very careful attention to the instructions."
