Command(TM) Mini Hooks Value Pack were purchased by me for personal use in my home. I found that they were not effective as advertised. My very lightweight pictures with plastic frames and shields fell from the walls. I hung 18 in the evening and by morning, all but 7 were no longer hanging. They malfunctioned in a number of ways, some the hook broke, some the hook came away from the adhesive and the rest just either slid down the wall or fell off the wall. I did supply more than adequate pressure when applying strips to walls and hooks to strips. In this process I lost 5 frames to breakage due to the falls.
The Command Mini Hooks are perfect for holding posters and word walls at school. I use two mini hooks and punch holes in the posters. It is so easy to change out posters and word walls when we go to a new unit, or remove the posters during testing. Because they are clear, they fade into the wall when not being used. It really saves time and money not having to put massive amounts of tape on the back of the posters.
I needed something to hang a sun catcher on my french door. I got these and they worked wonders. Just remodeled my house and now have drywall. Did not want to put holes in the walls, so got these to try. Really like them and will be able to change things out without leaving unsightly holes in the walls.
I would not like to think about all the holes I've had to patch in all the years before the Mini Hooks. The product has saved me alot of work after Christmas. I use them to hang ornaments on all my oak woodwork and I have not had a problem getting them off. They are the greatest for hanging the ornaments in my windows, archways and doors. They don't break like I thought they would and I can reuse them for many years. My only problem is that in my area I cannot seem to find refills of the mounting tabs. So I have alot of hooks with no tabs. I will still buy packages to use for the Holidays. THEY ARE FANTASTIC.
We purchased these to hang our Christmas stockings on the wall. They worked great while hanging. When it was time to remove them from the wall all 5 of them took the paint and some of the drywall with it. Not very happy because we now have 5 holes to patch and repaint our walls :(
