5 out of 5 stars great for plaster walls   April 28, 2009

9 out of 10 found this review helpful

I love these, they really work. I was skeptical at first, but had no choice but to try them as I was destroying my plaster walls trying to hang pictures. They really are easy to use, really do hold the picture and you really can reposition the picture w/in the first few minutes after hanging it w/o peeling the paint off the wall. Everything is as advertised. You also really can remove the picture days/weeks/months later - it's like velcro where 1/2 the velcro will stay on your wall and 1/2 on your picture so you can replace the photo or whatever you need to do and re-hang it. I know they come in small, medium and large, but I just use the medium for everything.
**** Update1: I have had pictures fall off the wall after a month or 2, but I still use these because it's better than putting a hole in your wall. In my case I would just have blank walls because it's impossible to get a nail into them. Also, I used these to mount some small decorative pieces (e.g. a butterfly, a small mirror) that have a hook for my 3 year old daughter to hang her stuff up and she tends to pull them off the wall, but it's OK because the velcro just separates and I can just mount it again really easily - no spare parts necessary. So I would say they are kid-proof, too, versus using nails - as long as the object itself is kidproof.
**** Update2: I took a real leap of faith and used these to secure a shelf over my son's door. I used 2 strips just to be safe and it's a really small decorative shelf with just his baby shoes on it. Hasn't come down yet! But the same 8 x 10 frame that came down the first time has come down again - there is a stand on the back of the frame that keeps it from lying flat and adhering to the wall on all sides.



5 out of 5 stars Never had them fail and I've used them for years   February 26, 2010

I've been using these for years and I've never had one fail. The largest thing I've hung is 16" by 20" and it is still solidly attached 6 months later. A 10" by 24" is still hanging and it's been a year and a half.

My entire interior of the house is painted in Behr paint, so Behr IS compatible with these picture hanging strips.

I always use four pairs of strips per picture, or more. Two is not enough except for very small pictures because the picture can wiggle down if it's bumped and the velcro will not hold to the other piece of velcro.

I have also used these at my office, on painted cement walls. The pictures have held on for over a year there, too.

You need to actually use the right size for your item - if it's a large item then use the large strips, and use four of them.

I'm very happy with them because I have been able to remove and rearrange pictures easily and without leaving any wall damage.

I use these a lot and I really like them. I've used them to hang pictures, small mirrors, tiny knick-knack shelves and whatever else I want to stick to my walls. I have plaster walls and I'd rather not use nails or screws. I've even used them on the bottom of objects to keep my cats from knocking stuff off of shelves. I've used them for temporary decoration during the holidays as well. If you want to economize and you plan it right, you can take down a picture and put up a temporary decoration on the same wall strip.

A real advantage is that they're easy to reposition to straighten the item, and then it never becomes uneven again.

I'm very impressed by the entire line of Command products, but these are my favorites! I wish they came in a jumbo sized package though - it seems like I'm always buying them.

I bought a couple of packages of these strips with high hopes and was not disappointed. I've used them to hang items on painted walls and to hang an under-the-cabinet light in my kitchen (which has 8 AA batteries so it's pretty heavy). Now I'm planning to hang an arrangement of family photos. I'm guessing that they are going to be most effective on smooth surfaces.


5 out of 5 stars PERFECT for renting!   March 17, 2010

I have never had mine fail! I don't know where all the negative reviews come from- I've used mine to hang up pictures and paintings, framed posters, markerboards, and even random wall decorations (like a boomerang). I have NEVER had anything fall down, except for one board that was just a little too heavy- added one extra strip, and it was all set! Even if they take off a little paint, they still cause much less damage than nails and screws in the apartment walls!

You just really have to make sure to press down the tabs on the back of the item, and on the wall!
