I have used this product (standard adhesive strips) for years and haven't normally had a problem, however i have just moved in to a new rental property and several pictures have fallen off the wall. Ive bought all sorts of different shapes and sizes and read carefully what is suitable for size and weight. I always make sure the wall is clean and have used several strips to redo it but it keeps happening. If it was my own house I'd just use normal hooks but i don't have that option as i am renting. Frustrated that nothing stays put. Any other suggestions?
We live in a historic house on an army post so I didn't want to put nail holes in the walls. We bought the Velcro command strips instead. It did not hold our photo, and left the adhesive stuck to the wall pulling off part of the wall with one of the strips. Cannot remove adhesive. Tried everything!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought several sets of these hook & loop strips for hanging poster frames in my son's room. They only worked for the smallest and lightest frames. (Less than 22x36 plastic) Eventhough I used mutliple sets (as recommemded) for a frame that weighed no more than 5 lbs it fell off the door after only 4 days and the frame broke. The adhesive side stayed on the door but all except one gave away from the frame. The hooks stayed together but the adhesive pulled off.

Burn or throw away your hard earned money, anything is of more use than this product. Only use, if you have a particular dislike for the photo you intend to hang, if "smashed on floor" is your desired look please see picture for full details of correct place for this product

I was very worried given other reviews but it worked perfectly for me. I followed the directions exactly, cleaned wall with rubbing alcohol, applied strip, let set overnight before hanging item, and hung item the next morning. I found that it was easier to attach the two pieces together (ie. the photo to the wall) by simply using the side of my fist as a mallet and simply and firmly "popping" the picture on the wall. You can literally hear it "snap" into place. My items were up for one month (Christmas) and nothing fell. When removing, I started with the bottom of my photo and angled it up towards the ceiling, which slowly released the two velcro pieces. After that I carefully and slowly pulled the sticky part STRAIGHT DOWN until it was completely removed from the wall. I used about 30 total and not a single problem. Will be using these every Christmas. (sorry pictures are crooked because I took them down, then threw them back up quickly for a picture)
I bought this product after seeing the adverts and wanted to make a feature wall of all my family photos, so rather the hammering loads of nails into my newly plastered living room I thought these would be perfect.... How mistaken was I. They took all the paint off the wall and have needed to re paint. I will not be using these products again
I bought command strips to hang pictures in my apartment. I am getting ready to move to a new place so I began taking pictures off the wall. To my disappointment the strips left bubbles on the walls, and even tore the paint off in 3 places, despite moving them as per the instructions. Thanks to the command strips I will be responsible for damages to the wall. Would not buy this product again!
