Perfect for my small travel trailer and they don't take up too much space. Orange color is key for not leaving them behind.
They do what they are supposed to well, for a good price to boot December 13, 2009

To stress what other reviewers have said, when you order this "2 Pack" you get what you see in the picture: two chocks, not two sets of chocks.
This is a good light-duty set of chocks. They are lightweight, made of durable plastic, and are stackable (like they are in the picture) to save space. They are also bright orange so you don't forget about them when the job is done.
The bottom of the chock is slightly serrated, which will give it a decent grip on concrete and asphalt - just make sure you wedge them in well. I would not use these chocks on an incline, on a soft or uneven surface or on a vehicle with a bad parking brake, but for all your normal uses these should do the trick.
The two chocks come attached with a plastic fastener. It's a boar to remove, so a pair of pliers is recommended. If you look closely at the picture, you can see holes pre-molded into the lower end of the chock. If you want to keep the two connected but still easily separated for use, I recommend a short length of twine.

I already had a set of these wheel chocks and they work great!! For the price you really can't do much better . I just did a fuel pump and used them on both tires and the car never moved so they work great.

I like they way they nest together. I have two light weight trailers--a 2000 lb. popup camper and a utility trailer. These are stout enough for that duty and yet not overkill. Colorado is not level, so I use them all the time, and these have done a very reliable job of keeping my trailers where they belong.
Chocks work fine, you get TWO of them. October 13, 2009

It's beyond me how others think they should have gotten 4, or one reviewer thinks she only received one. It's clear from the description that this is a PAIR of wheel chocks, not two pair, not one chock. The 2 are NOT "screwed together" as mentioned in another review. The manufacturer attaches them with a plastic fastener called a "christmas tree." It's similar to the plastic fasteners that hold interior door panels on a car. This is removable; the 2 chocks are separated for use. Granted, it's a little difficult to pull them apart, a pair of pliers helps. It would be dangerous to leave the 2 wheel chocks attached as shipped to try to prevent a car or RV from moving.
Now for some actual, useful information about the wheel chocks. I bought these to stabilize my cars when jacking them to service brakes, tires, etc. My garage floor is painted with epoxy paint. Even with the anti-slip additive in the paint, several other wheel chocks I have tried always slipped and moved on the epoxy floor. These Blitz Tire Hugger Wheel Chocks have held firm on the floor every time. As with any wheel chock, it's important to make sure it's firmly wedged between the tire and the floor. A quick firm kick to wedge the chock in place is all I ever need on my slippery garage floor.
I don't think these would be useful outdoors on an unpaved surface, such as with an RV or trailer in the woods. But then, it dozen't seem that's how they are being marketed anyway, and I haven't tried them in this application. For working on a car with a jack or ramps, these chocks do the job.
