MIXXIDEA 17.5 in Ground Anchors Screw in - Heavy Duty Spiral Stakes

Our review of the MIXXIDEA 17.5 in folding ring spiral ground anchor finds it best suited to homeowners and outdoor enthusiasts who need a tough, reusable stake for securing trampolines, tents, canopies and pet tie-outs. The single biggest reason to buy is its heavy steel spiral and powder coating, which make the anchor feel solid and resistant to corrosion while allowing it to be driven into soil by hand or with an electric drill for a secure hold.

Key Features

• Powder-coated steel: The solid steel construction with a protective finish reduces rust and extends service life in outdoor conditions.
• Folding ring design: The ring head folds for compact storage and provides a secure tether point for straps or ropes when in use.
• Drill-ready nut: A central nut can be rotated or removed so the anchor can be installed quickly with an impact driver or by hand.
• Easy installation: The spiral shape lets users push the head into the ground and rotate the anchor by hand or with a drill until it is fully seated.
• Versatile applications: The anchor works for trampolines, garden fencing, sheds, swings, canopies and as a dog tie-out stake.
• Included strap length: The kit includes a 92 in strap that gives enough reach to secure tents and smaller structures to the anchor.

Who It's For

The MIXXIDEA ground anchor is ideal for homeowners who need a reliable way to secure lightweight to medium outdoor equipment such as trampolines, canopies, holiday displays and pet tie-outs. It is also a good fit for campers who want a reusable screw-in anchor that installs with a drill.

Those who need anchors for extremely soft sand or heavy structural foundations should look for purpose-built anchors designed for those soils or engineered foundation systems, as performance depends on soil type and proper installation technique.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Works with hand rotation or an electric drill for faster installation.
