Maybe great for you, not so great for me.
The spikes are plastic, not a harder resin that come with the Vigro plastic edging from Home Depot. With that said, if you have a good amount of topsoil these might work great for you. I live in Austin, TX and my soil is very rocky and dense...think compacted limestone dirt with lots of rocks underneath. So the spikes would go in a few inches and then just stop. If you tried to beat them in with a rubber mallet, the shaft would bend and usually just break off. The only work around that I’ve found is increasing the angle, but then the strength of the hold is compromised.These aren’t bad by any means. They’re a food product, but for my yard, they didn’t work very well. So just know they aren’t as stiff as what you get with the box store stuff.

DO NOT BUY THESE! SAFETY HAZARD! HEADS BREAK OFF!
DO NOT BUY THIS BRAND!! THEY POSE A SAFETY HAZARD!! The heads break off easily. I have done dozens of projects using Dimex stakes and have never had a problem with breakage, no matter how hard the surface or the underlying conditions might be. With this brand, SEVEN (7) heads broke off -- two of which went flying who-knows-where (hopefully not into someone's eyes). Other stakes bent when hammered. I stopped using these and finished the job with the Dimex, and did not have a single problem with breakage or bending. Note that this particular stake has ribbing near the head of the stake. The higher-quality brands do not. Such ribbing may or may not have anything to do with the breakage, but it is something to look for -- and avoid -- if you see this type being offered from another vendor.

Of course they might bend
These are plastic, not titanium. I used them to place snap in very hard rocky ground. Solution: use a drill and a long screwdriver to start the hole, if you hit rock, forget it, try elsewhere. I snapped 2 of them before I wised up. Rock beats plastic every time, but screwdriver and/ or drill beat hard ground. They anchored very well.

Not rigid, almost all bent after about 1/3 in the ground.
All of the stakes bent when trying to mallet in the ground. Nearly the entire package was useless. I suppose if you had very loose, soft soil they may work, but other than that, they are not rigid enough for normal use.

Cheap plastic. Bends easily.
The spikes did the work of holding down the plastic edging but it's good the bag came with many spikes. The plastic is cheap and can bend and break. The ground in our area is tough and several spikes bent and became useless and a few even had the head snap off after being hit with the hammer. If you have really soft ground, these would work great.
