Master Mark Plastics has become a premier name in lawn, garden, and building supplies throughout the world due to the fact that we are one of the largest and most experienced recyclers of HDPE plastics. High Density Polyethylene plastics, which include hefty weight materials like milk jugs, detergent containers, juice and soda bottles that do not easily disintegrate. Therefore, this garbage would last many years in a landfill. Our recycling operation takes this plastic, grinds it up, sterilizes it, and treats it for further use in our lawn and garden products and composite decking materials.

Did not have problems that previous reviews noted,
These stakes worked fine for me, even in my dense clay soil. I did wet the soil first and poke a “starter” hole with a screwdriver (essential). No problems with breakage when I hammered them in. The only reason I don’t give them 5 stars is that I used the edging to create circles for mulch around trees, and the clips at the top of the stakes don’t open enough to fit 2 widths of the edging inside to overlap and close the circle. Luckily I had some old stakes with a wider space there, and I used one of them per tree instead of a Master Mark stake.

works OK in certain applications,
We bought a bunch of extra pegs to use with the 3 inch border edging (see my review on that product).
These certainly work well for what they were intended, but we did have a small problem with the tops of the pegs breaking. The soil we were using these (and the edging) in is very hard soil. We ended up having to use a pointed tool to make a hole in the ground before being able to insert these pegs. If we didn’t pre-drill a hole, the pegs would break when trying to hammer them in.
We even tried putting a rag on top of the peg and also a thin piece of wood to protect the top of the peg. The wood worked better than the rag, but we still had to pre-drill. Some of the pegs that broke were ones that we had already used and had been outside for a couple of years so perhaps they weaken after being out in the elements for a while.
The pegs come in handy for a few other yard projects, though, so you can be inventive if you have any pegs left over. We’re removed most of the border edging and I am saving the pegs for other uses in the yard.

Poor design,
The spike part of this stake is a single bevel cut on the side opposite of the clip portion at the top. What this means is that when you place the stake next to the board with the clip facing the board, as you drive the stake, the spike end wants to work its way under the board and the clip end tips away from the board. If the bevel was on the clip side, the stake would lean into the board as you drove it, or better yet if it were a double bevel (V shape) tip, it would be neutral and not try to lean either way as you drove it.
Not sure if the manufacturer just doesn’t care, or if they really don’t understand this simple concept.
