works well

These spikes are adequate for most average golfers. Granted one set will last me only one season although I play once every week. I have never had any come apart as in another review but the spikes will wear out. If you install as directed and not overtighten you should have no problem with them breaking off from the twist part.
Pros: Easy to Use, Good Value
Cons: Durability

Fair at best

I have tried about all the plastic spikes on the market including these and like many golfers I miss the metal spikes. These seem to wear faster than most but provide the same traction as all the others which is minimal at best.
This very same company is now producing an adjustable spike that I just installed a few rounds ago and while I can't speak for durability yet, I can say it is as close to a metal spike as you can get. Great traction and comfortable.
Cons: Quality, Poor Design

Softspikes failed after two rounds
Date: May 28, 2006
I recently returned from a trip to Florida. Before I left I purchased two ets of Softspikes and replced all of the spikes in my Callaway shoes and in my wife's FootJoys. After two rounds a mojority of the spikes had broken of at the fasttwist stem and some had peeled the black spike off of the the green plate. I could not find a web address to report this to Softsike so I am giving them one star because there are no negative stars or I would give them a minus 2stars!
