*update* Amazon gave me a refund on the first pack I ordered, so I reordered another pack. Second pack came with no problems. I had my doubts about these(I prefer star drive) but to my surprise I framed my whole deck with these and not one stripped out(i used an impact drive the whole time). No need to predrill either. Smooth sinking and the bite into the wood very quickly after you start the drill. I have used more expensive screws before that would spin and spin a lot before the screw would finally grab hold and start into the wood. Yes I would recommend these, the are equal to the quality and ease of use as the more expensive star drive ones at my local big box hardware store.
But, it gets the job done. That’s good enough for me, with such good price I have no complaints.
