I have been using these for a few years now. I just did a set of 2 pictures and one of them came off the wall. All 4 of the wall side are still on the picture, I have pulled down the second picture, and when i did 2 of them as well just came off the picture frame. These weigh 9.6Lbs.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these for 2 purposes while living in a rental for a year. First, I used 4 of them to support an entryway mirror. No damage whatsoever when I moved home last month. Second, I used 4 of them to anchor a cabinet that needed stabilizing. Since there were no small children in the household, I felt confident that this would work. It was easy, effective, and left no damage when removed at the end of the year.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this about a month-and-a-half ago to hang multiple pictures around my home and I found myself wondering why I continue to purchase the items due to my previous experiences with it only working 30% of the time. Unfortunately within a couple of days any item that I hung that weighed less than 5 lb fell . Fortunately only a few of them were damaged and can be replaced. When this originally happened I thought that it was me just not putting enough strips on the back of the items that I was hanging so what I did was purchase the larger strips which in this case is the product that I am reviewing and unfortunately the same thing happened with those items.
I still like the strips due to the ease of use and convenience it offers when I want to change my home decor. However there are times that I won't rely on it due to the unreliability of items sticking to the wall so at this time I am only using the product for non valuables with the expectations that it will fall, as for any valuables I use nails to hang it up to ensure it is securely in place.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] [Employee of 3m-command] I bought several boxes of these 2 months ago. I followed the instruction to the letter! First, 2 of the picture frames that I hung fell and broke. Then when I pulled the command strips off the wall, it tore a hole in my dry wall. I was trying to avoid wall damage because I rent and it has already cost me more than I would be charged putting holes in my walls.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had several new paintings and decided to try the Command black large hanging strips. These were perfect for my paintings. Strips were so easy to apply and supported my paintings great. I am very happy with these strips.
I bought instead of putting holes in the wall. Nice concept until I hung a brand new picture, the picture fell down and broke the frame. Now I need to buy a new frame and also out the money for the strips.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using these for a couple years and am still amazed at how simple hanging and changing out yearly pictures are
