Jon,

I've had a good bit of experience with them.  They are used on all the press
board - U assemble - furnature.  I've put together computer desks for both
of my boys with them.  They do make for fast assembly and are easy to use.
Fortunately, all the furnature was pre drilled for them.

I don't know how sturdy they really are.  For the furnature I've put together
with them, they do the job.  But I don't think I've tried to stand or sit on
the computer tables. :)
