[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The picture hanging strips are great. I am trying not to use nails on my walls so these are perfect. They are so easy to use and really work well. I have hung pictures using them and feel they are sturdy and reliable.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you enjoy hanging beautiful and colorful posters, embroideries, and lots of other stuff around your home, then these Command Picture Hanging Strips will do the trick for you! They will not harm your wall,s they will support up to ten pounds, and they are so easy to use.
This product was great at removing paint from the wall. Followed directions exactly as stated. At step 4 pulling the picture from the wall took the paint with it. These walls were professionally painted 8 months ago. As instructed, prepped with rubbing alcohol. Worked great at removing paint when step 4 was done.

Purchased 3M Command Decorating Clips this month and have gone through almost all the Sticky Strips and they will not hold. Ive tried hanging light weight birthday banners (4x), christmas garland, christmas lights and these things will not stick. I think we got a defective batch

The adhesive strips are not as "sticky" as in years past and my Christmas lights start falling down within days of being hung. I can't imagine how they will do if it rains. I purchased new hooks this year and have already gone back to purchase refill adhesive strips. NOTE: I've used command strips for years and never had a problem before; however, the QUALITY is definitely not the same.

Been using for years without issue until recently. Two pictures now have fallen off the wall in 4 months. This time caused damage to the baseboard. Don't know if I got a bad batch or what but not happy about it! It won't allow me to add the pic, but velcro sticks but sticky side came off of the frame. And yes, I did make sure the frame was clean at install.

I had used this product to hang a large collection of pictures and canvas but then had to move, and instead of being able to just purchase replaceable stickers betweeen Velcro and wall, I have to buy a whole pack again. This makes them not reusable and just once only, then we throw the whole lot out and have to start again. I wish we could buy packs of just the sticky components of these and then I could give 5 stars.

I have been using these products for family picture frames for about 4 months. They are beginning to fail at about 2 to 3 months. The larger frames have been the first to fail, and break on the floor on impact. None of these frames are over 1 pound...using multiple strips rated for 2.5 pounds or heavier (whatever in store). The smaller 4x6 frames remain attached.
I have identified two failure points. First, the strips coming off the walls. Not an issue for smallest frames, yet. Standard latex walls cleaned before application. Second, detachment from the frames itself, the adhesive side on the frame.
I have even used gorilla glue two-sided heavy duty tape on the frame, and then the Command strip on that tape. That just failed too after 2 months. It peeled off the gorilla tape which remains on the frame.
What I am unable to address if this may be a batch issue. I purchased several packages over a period from different stores. Otherwise I would have provided for help on root cause.
I had hoped to avoid nails in the walls, but there doesn't seem to be an alternative as this product is showing unreliability. For weightless plastic applications, it works. I have used other command products for years, which have mostly worked. For more practical uses on pricier objects, I would take caution and consider standard hooks.
