For my gazebo cover
Because I couldn’t find these I Left 2 panels without draining grommets last season and it took on so much water the canopy collapsed. So glad to have them, might use 2/panel this time

Eyelet Installation Requires Heavy Hammering
I bought this fearing I might have an issue putting the eyelets on the window shade panels I was making with block out fabric. You must follow instructions and hammer the pieces on concrete - it won't work on your kitchen floor. For an older woman such as myself, one must pound very hard and many times with a somewhat heavy hammer, careful to not hit your fingers. A man could do this with just a couple of hammer strokes. If you don't hammer hard enough, the eyelet pieces won't connect flat enough on your fabric. I folded the fabric over two inches and cut the hole through both layers. This was not a problem. The instructions are accurate. I'm very happy with the window shade panels I made, which I hung up with the eyelets on plastic Command hooks that I stuck to the wall. I just wish the eyelet installation required less effort.

Dritz Grommets
I was a bit trepidatious about using these on my hand-sewn and hand-painted canvas shower curtain! However, they were super easy to apply, even to a double layer of painted canvas! I recommend a practice application, of course. I used the prong insetpiece to mark a circle with pencil (on the wrong side of the shower curtain), then used manicure scissors to cut an "X" within the circle. This made positioning of the two grommet pieces easier. I pushed the pieces together per instructions, placed them on the anvil, and hammered, then removed the setting tool (had to wiggle it a bit as the canvas made it tight), and gently hammered a bit more on the back, keeping the anvil in place. The grommets look professional and neat. Of course, I had to buy TWO packages to make up the twelve needed for the shower curtain, so wish there were a few more per package.

Couldn't possibly work
Milk crate forced into service as a cargo bin in the back of Ford Escape slides all over the place on the slippery carpet. Tried velcro, tried sticking carpet non-slip to bottom of crate, nothing works. Go around a sharp corner and Bang! as the crate slides across the rear deck and slams into the other side of the SUV.Drilled a hole through the bottom of the milk crate, drilled a hole through the carpet, ran a short, fat screw up through the carpet and into the bottom of the crate. Works, but big ugly hole in carpet that will only get bigger and uglier with wear.Hmm, here's a large diameter metal grommet...but surely it won't fit and secure itself across the thickness of a carpet?Wrong - worked perfectly, easy to install, looks great. Only needed two and lots of leftovers for a future product.Crate now secure as if it was a part of the car.Happy.

Didnt have anvil
Please remember that while the quality of the rivets are fine you have to remember this kit does not have the tool to install them with and Amazon doesn't seem to sell the kit alone so be sure to get the one you want and has the the Anvil

As advertised but no tool to assist cutting the hole.
HINT: You’ll need your own device to create the hole for the center of the grommet. Package has no measurement specified for what size the hole should be. I started with a nail hole then used sharp scissors to enlarge the hole. Recommend making the hole slightly smaller than you’d expect so that the material is snug when the grommet is pressed through.

Trop rigides, difficiles à installer...
Ils sont tellement de bonne qualité que ça devient presque un défaut! Il faut frapper vraiment très fort et à de nombreuses reprises avant que l’œillet commence à "s'écraser" très graduellement dans sa rondelle! J'avais acheté ces œillets dans le but d'en installer (4) sur un ouvrage au crochet (sac à main). J'ai fait le test au préalable sur un tissu bon marché, mais j'y arrive très difficilement dû au métal trop rigide. Je le recommande sur des tissus très épais comme une bâche ou autre, et vous devrez frapper vraiment très fort avec un bon marteau lourd! De là le "3 étoiles" que je lui attribue. C'est, somme toute, un produit de très bonne qualité qui durera vraiment longtemps; y a au moins ça comme avantage! Mais sur des articles plus délicats comme les tricots, pensez-y bien! Vous risquez de les endommager à force de frapper dessus!
