Anchors

Researching anchors and keep popping up testimonials on how absolutely great the new Rocnas are! Always set the first time, never drag in any bottom, yada, yada.
Then I realized why! They size them twice the size of other anchors! My boat calls for a 15 kg Bruce for 60 knot winds.
A 35# CQR. (16 kg) and
A whopping 33 kg for Rocna!

So does this mean the Rocna design is so lousy it takes twice the weight to work properly?
