What a mushroom anchor is actually for
A mushroom anchor is honest about its job: it settles into soft mud, silt, and sand and resists steady, light loads. That makes it right for small craft, calm water, and station-keeping — and wrong for pontoons, current, and rocky bottoms.
If that bigger job is yours, step up to a river anchor or the Richter. If the small job is yours, this is the cheapest good decision on the site.

Why Greenfield
We've been casting and coating these in the USA for generations, and we won't pretend a 10 lb mushroom is a storm anchor — it isn't, and anyone who says otherwise is selling you a return. For small craft and soft bottoms, it's exactly right.
Product questions
Will it hold my pontoon?
Not as a primary anchor — pontoons catch too much wind. Use a river anchor or Richter for that, and keep the mushroom as a second anchor.
Is it good for a kayak or PWC?
Yes — small craft on soft bottoms in calm water is exactly its job.
Is it made in the USA?
Yes — made and coated in the USA, with coating done at Greenfield Products in Greenfield, Ohio.
