These stage clips make finishing off the stage so nice and easy. The clips seem sturdy and think they will last a long time. The clips stay attached to the skirt very well. The only thing Iāve experienced is the clips moving around a little causing gaps, so Iām adjusting and pulling the clips and skirting taunt and flush against the stage, but thatās only because my stage is low and in a high traffic area where itās brushed up against a lot. I purchased a longer skirt to accommodate the stage if we want it higher. I still think it works even pooling at the bottom. I just tuck it in under the stage a little. Iām very happy with this product.
