These ties keep cords, cables, hoses, etc. well secured and orderly---which is why I bought them. Any zip ties will do that, more or less, but these, which can be loosened and removed and then replaced fairly easily when additions, removals, or rearrangements are necessary, are just what a person needs.
They also can be trimmed to size, the only requirement being that enough of a "tail" must be left for handling. Permanent zip ties don't need a tail, but the amount left doesn't have to be all that much, and the ties can be placed so that the tails are out of sight.
Velcro strips might have the advantage of better appearance up close, but they are substantially more expensive. If you're looking at a Victorian drawing room, get the Velcro; otherwise, don't worry about it and use these ties.
One final note. Because this came in a flat box loose, and I'm not good at guessing numbers of items like this, I decided to count them and did so, one by one. Guess what? They didn't send 200, which they said they would do, they sent 201. Good for them.
