So far, this was very easy to put up and the picture has stayed there. Went into a Dob Dab wall or whatever they're called, a soft wall in other words, its a strong hold that will take up to 100kg in weight.Not using this before, so made sure to buy the top quality ones. I do recommend you go for somthing with a known quality as a first attempt.

Pretty good fixings but make a practice fixing first. I found if you are fixing into light/medium blocks then the recommended drill size of 10mm is too big and the screws don't bite into the plug enough to expand it in the hole sufficiently (the screw threads tore out when tightening with just two fingers on the screwdriver). This is because the actual screws are relatively thin in diameter /thread depth (which is necessary in order to fit through the steel collar).I recommend using a 9mm drill bit for the full depth (100mm), then open out to 10mm for the front (approx 50mm) portion. Also drill without hammer action if you have light blocks (hammer action tends to make the drill bit walk a little and you get a larger hole). (I didn't have a 9mm masonry bit so I drilled 7mm using proper masonry bit with hammer action, then just used a old 9mm hss steel bit without hammer action - this will cut through like butter).Then knock the red plugs home using a long screw (don't hammer the end of the plug or it will fold over).Using this technique gave a really strong fixing. I used 6 of these to mount a 49" TV on an articulated bracket that pulls out and rotates. I also used 8 of these fixings to mount a 75" TV (flush to the wall though; it's too heavy for an articulated bracket).Overl, spend 5 minutes perfecting your installation technique and you won't be disappointed. I've bought a load more of these for my toolbox (wish I'd just bought a large box rather them buying 4 or 6 at a time).

If you have cavity walls this is the ideal plugs ,you drill through plaster board and solid brick wall ,to hold anything heavy you can be sure they will do the job with a special drill long enough to and up to 4 inches this is ideal for tvbrackets up to 65in .

Brilliant needed to hang radiators wicth where heavy , done the job with ease,

Used these to fix TV to a dab and dot plasterboard wall with brick wall behind. Easy to use and very functional. I know not cheap but you get the quality and the comfort of item staying on the wall

Easy to use, I followed the steps and used it for my TV. Great product, strong and well made

They are good for lightweight and into brick, but do not consider for heavy duty applications on dot & dab with thermalite bricks! My TV fell off the wall! Rigifix M6 sorted the problem…
