Work awesome, wish I had gotten more

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have an umbrella that we use to block the sun at our side door. We have had it set up several different ways with wire and push pins and nails in our siding and tied to our post. But all of these either damaged our siding/structure or don't work, the wind has blown it over several times. We've had to replace it because the wire didn't hold it and it flew away and broke. When I saw these coolaroo butterfly clips I was almost sure they would help me with my problem. It's not like they make a specific product for a large half umbrella made for the side of a house. Well actually yes that is the case. Now I don't have to rush outside in lightening and wind to take the umbrella down, which is dangerous. So not only has the clips successfully helped me tie down the umbrella, we used the rest because they come with a bunch, to affix a privacy screen on our porch. We bought some canvas and used these to tie it down to the porch posts. I am so happy with these little clips. I really suggest them for many different types of canvas/fabric shades, umbrella, or fences. They hold them down so you don't have to worry about wind. I live in a pretty high elevation that's why the wind is such a problem but so far they have held down my stuff. And it makes it all look neat and uniform as well as holding it safely in place! Totally recommend these!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got these to use a few weeks ago. These hold things solidly in place. The only down side is trying to reve them once they are closed. They fasten extremely tight. This is a good thing for keeping stuff in place, bad if you need to make an adjustment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these Coolaroo shade fabric butterfly clips to hang netting when camping. The plastic clips last through several uses. I did find the clips were hard to snap the first time. I had to clip them several times to prep for permanent install.
