Ez-Shim Heavy Duty Shims (20 count)

Building a set of concrete paver steps and had to get them horizontally aligned with the top of the deck to prevent a tripping hazard, these allowed me to shim them perfectly! Fitted them dry and when level I laid beads of glue under each shim, then over them as well, set the paver down and done!

I’m not sure how these could be any better. They are a clear step up from the already excellent wood/plastic composite shims I usually use. I used them to level a very heavy (~1800 pound) safe on concrete and they worked as I had hoped. That is, easy to tap into place and snap off flush with no compression from the weight. Highly recommended!I really don’t understand the couple of one-star reviews. This product is truly excellent for the purpose it was built to serve, so I guess folks who are finding fault with it may be trying to use it outsides it’s intended purpose or using it incorrectly.Update: two years on, my safe is still wobble-free and the shims have not compressed at all. I’d hazard a guess that these shims will last indefinitely.

I have one of this infamous Bosch dishwashers that won't stay closed during a cleaning cycle. The new style dishwasher that doesn't have a latch that swings across like the old models. Due to temperature fluctuations from the water temperature and the stainless steel tub, the latch would pop open 15-20 minutes into a cycle, and then 3-4 times until finished. Bosch came out with a fix for it (a thin metal plate) but even that didn't help in my situation.I used 2 of these shims to press the top of the latch down a little farther. Being plastic rather than wood, these will work better over the long haul because of all the humidity that escapes when the door is opened.The only reason for 4 stars is that they're a little hard to break apart.

I bought a TV to use as a larger monitor for our office laptop. After getting it, I realized that it felt like it was leaning toward me because I'm so used to having a PC monitor that I tilt away from me. I needed something that could provide a little angle yet look nice. These wedges blend in perfectly with the TV's feet and it's amazing how much of a difference it's made. I used 4 (glued 2 together x 2 feet to get the right height) but saved the rest of the first package. The second pack of 20 I gave to my dad as he's a tinkerer and would surely find a use for them.What a great idea these are. I highly recommend for their durability, appearance, and the ease of modifying to your particular use.

I hate using plastic unnecessarily so when someone recommended these shims to me I was hesitant. I usually buy the bulk packs of wood shims and they work well. But was recently installing windows and grabbed a pack of these and they were terrific. Very well designed to not kick out from pressure, and very easy to snap off any portion that sticks out. I've been using them on all exterior projects and any area that has the potential to get wet. I save the snapped off pieces and they come in handy in many ways — spreader, scraper, additional shim... I just carry a couple in my construction pouch now. Great product.

We have a refrigerator in our garage that was rocking because I guess one of the feet rusted. I got annoyed that every time we shut the door, the thing rocked. I was trying to think of something we could do to stop that annoyance. I googled it and saw plastic furniture/appliance shims. Looked on Amazon and bought these! With a little tap of a hammer, it went right under the rusted foot and wa-la...no more rocking! Plus being plastic it won't rot and they are heavy duty to support the weight of the fridge. Love them!

used them to level my floor in an old house

I used these shims to balance out my 55 gallon fish tank after moving the new location left my tank obviously unlevel water was higher on one side then the other. These shims slipped under then tank and stand easily while filled and running on my own. It was easy to adjust or add a second shim on top. I do wish they would snap off the excess easier. But hey they work great and havent broken
