Was looking around at a number of different anchor kits that included anchor, rope, and chain. This was by far the best value. Solid metal anchor that came in a 4.4kg or right around 10lbs. The only complaint I have is the rope that comes with the kit is cheap, and I can tell after using the anchor only a few time that the rope is going to need to be replaced at some point down the rode (pun intended). However, for the price, I think this is what you have to expect, and when it's time for a new rope I'll probably just pick one up from a local store that sells rope for 20 bucks, and even then this is still a great value.
Some additional information that others might find helpful.... I have a 21 foot cuddy cabin that I estimate weighs 4,000 lbs when fully loaded with fuel, gear, and guests. I boat in fresh water lakes with mainly mucky or sandy bottoms, and tide isn't really a concern. The few times I've utilized this anchor it has worked great holding the boat, and almost grabbing immediately. One of the times was in extremely rough conditions and the boat didn't move a foot.
Overall, I would recommend this anchor to anyone.
