I bought these for 2 kayaks as the standard footbraces that came with the kayaks were set at 90° to the runners and created pressure points on my feet. I did some homework and purchased these. They came with rails (which I did not need) and were a direct swap on my Crescent Light Tackle II and my wife's Liquidlogic kayak. I did not need the rails for the swap.
They are way more comfortable than the OEM footrests with their 45° angle. I do feel they are quite a lot more flexible than the original footrests. I am not concerned that they will break in normal use - I think that unlikely. They are sturdy enough for paddling and normal use, just not as rigid as the OEM units (which I would rate 2 star at best based on their comfort level).
I would purchase these again to swap out the OEM footrests
