Large Hooks

These hooks are great! I have a spot on my wall that for some reason will not let me hang a mirror on it, but really wanted to put a mirror there. I tried tons of other direct-to-mirror adhesives, but it kept falling off. Finally, I went with a couple of large hooks to hold the mirror in place. Something about the combination of Command Adhesive and the way a hook redirects the downforce of the mirror against the surface of the wall has miraculously allowed the mirror to stay up. The adhesive isn't coming undone, and the hooks are holding. Stubborn wall defeated!
When we travel to Europe we always take Command hooks with us becuse European hotels, hostels and B&B's don't always have spacious closets to store clothing. The Command hooks come in very handy as we travel from place to place because they can be used over and over.
We also spend time at fishing resorts staying in cabins which hardly ever have adequate storage for clothing and towels that are in use. Command hooks are a welcome convenience because they can be removed and taken with us when we leave. The Command refill packet helps also because by purchasing this product we can use the hooks forevedr.
I love all the Command hooks but I use the Large one the most for things like back packs, heavy coats, and even toy bags. They reduce clutter in the house and especially in kids closet. This also helps us get ready for school faster in the morning, which is great for a tired working mom!
I have been using these in my garage to hang items and they work great for all brooms and other cleaning items in the garage area.They are easily put in small places to tuck things away.
As with all Command products, these large hooks stick beautifully without ruining my doors or walls. I use the large hooks on the back of my bedroom door to hang jackets and/or purses, and on the inside of my bathroom door for robes and PJs. I have tried several types of Command hooks and love them all. I will be buying more sizes and styles as needed.
I have always been leary of hanging decorative wreaths, indian corn, etc on the outside of the house but with Commands hooks and decoriative looks I feel confident that my items will hold perfectly and I won't have to pound a nail in the outside of my house!!
For the 30 years that we've been in our home, we've always suspended two 30-inch wreaths on the balconies on either side of our fireplace. We've always used either string to hold the wreaths in place so the wood on the bannister would not be damaged. Then I discovered Command Hooks!!! My husband thought I was brilliant when I simply attached two hooks to the bannister, and the two wreaths remained suspended throughout the season. However, the best part was when we dismantled the decorations and removed the hooks, not a scar on the wood was visible!!! Thank you Command Hooks. We're sold on you!!
