These are very well made but still very affordable bungee cords. With the variety provided, I was able to find a couple that worked well for my needs (securing a roadside kit, fire extinguisher, and misc items in the trunk of my car).The full metal hook with plastic is a nice touch, and appears to be executed well (any thinner and the plastic would probably chip too easily, any thicker and you wouldn’t be able to hook onto things as easily. These have a perfect degree of stretch to them, and rebound well. They don’t seem like they will wear out easily. Definitely worth the money.
