It has it all
It's exactly what it advertises and does everything I need it to. Enough space to fit my phone, readers, car keys, AirPods, wallet, and a little extra space for a small candle. I only wish the slot for the charging cable was a bit smaller sometimes the charging cable will slide out since there is nothing to catch it or secure it in place.

Works Great!
Color: 2Pcs-Large L Hooks-Orange, Color: 2Pcs-Large L Hooks-Orange
The hooks were the perfect length and strength to hold the decorative fence edging I was wanting. The magnets were also the right strength. I would buy these again!

Heavy duty - they have their limits
Color: 2Pcs-Large L Hooks-Black
These don’t hold a regular shovel, the magnet isn’t strong enough. They do work nice for plastic snow shovels. I use them in a Wick steel building. Nice to not have to drill into the walls. The depth is nice on them.
