I needed one, but bought two. I wish now I had ordered four. Wear gloves when operating, they will pinch you. I am not too mechanical and it took me a few tries to figure out how to release the tension. The grocery bag hook is a joke, but I never had intentions to suspend my groceries in my truck bed. These are intended to keep cargo from sliding and they work as advertised. I am very happy I bought them and my wife said they look nice. Apparently they match the bed liner motif. The price seems fair and they arrived quickly. The best advice I can offer, do not get all he man and ratchet these puppies as tight as humanly possible. You will need some slack to loosen them, otherwise they will feel welded in place. You need gloves, but otherwise I recommend.
