DMM offsets are NOT a specialized piece. I often reach a belay finding that I have placed more offsets than regular nuts. If you have them, you'll find placements for them after you learn to look for them.

I disagree. I have a set but hardly place any of them. Their usefulness really depends on the type of rock you climb on.

I heard that same thing from people about offsets not being a good type of nut for the Gunks. I brought them anyway and was placing them constantly.

Just in case anyone cares:

I noticed that their sizing is 7-11# would you still achieve the same versatility compare to the larger sets, say the DMM Wallnut?

Answered my own question, but for others reading:
DMM Wallnuts - 7mm - 35mm
DMM Offsets 12mm-30mm
