- Damage-Free Hanging
- Holds strongly
- Removes cleanly
- Easy to apply and remove
- Works on a variety of surfaces
I have used many different command hooks and all of them work perfectly. If installed correctly I have never had one come down, even when hanging more than the recommended weight on them. I have them on painted surfaces and on the backs of doors. I even hang my heavy full length terry cloth robe on it when it is wet after a shower. I know it weighs more than the 7.5.lbs for the jumbo hook. I think that the key is to put the adhesive strip on as directed and then hold it in place firmly for at least a minute. Then do not hang anything on it until the next day. I have had some of these hooks up for years and have never had a problem.

The sticky strips that come with these hooks really hold on, and then remove easily and cleanly if you need them to. I have bought quite a few Command Hooks because they have the ONLY self-adhesive strips that have never failed me, unlike the foam-backed ones that ALWAYS fail, eventually.

I have used these for years, and many of the hooks lasted that long! They have never damaged the wall when removed. The only time one damaged a wall was when I seriously overloaded the hook, it pulled the layer of paper off of the drywall. They didn't work on a wall with a glazed faux finish, but they have held on every other wall except a tile one behind the stove. (I think the heat did them in.) Try the other Command Adhesive products, too -especially the Velcro picture hangers.

I don't know if there was a change in the manufacturing process or what but after a move we purchased more of these since they worked so well in our old home.
We followed the directions to the letter. Cleaned the walls, cleaned again with alcohol, etc.
We even used anchors with a much higher weight limit than the items we were hanging them on.
First thing that fell was a small clock, hung on the large hook. Damaged it but we were able to repair it with epoxy and it didn't look too bad (Was annoying though as it was a brand new clock with pendulum that we spent about $50.00 on
We thought to ourselves, "It must be a fluke, or maybe we did something wrong" since we used them before to hang EVERYTHING in our other home and they were still firmly affixed when we moved.
2 days later a hand made Aztec calender we purchased on our honeymoon at a little roadside stand in the middle of the Yucatan rain forest fell. It landed on our end table, damaging the table and completely shattering this irreplaceable memento.
We were shattered as well.
We immediately removed our only other honeymoon wall hanging object, a Mayan Calender carved in bone from the other hook. I am just glad nobody was sitting underneath the Aztec one when it fell because it could have caused serious injury.
5 minutes ago a decorative tile (weighing in at a huge 2 1/2 ounces) just fell in the kitchen. (I forgot about that one being on the 3M strips) and also shattered. (we have tile floors so it didn't stand a chance). I immediately took down the other 4 and it was a good thing I did. The strips came away from the wall with ease (except for one small spot which actually took off the paint) and had less tacky of a feel than Scotch tape does!
I am now furious. I swore by 3M products for years and recommended them to all my friends and Clients (I am a Realtor®) I hope it doesn't damage anything of theirs, and my reputation, so I am going to have to contact everyone I recommended them to and ask them to remove them.
For the price of these hangers they should function as specified. I don't know if the failure is due to a change in environment (We used them successfully in the dry desert climate of Nevada and now live in humid Florida) and I don't care. They should test their products in all climates.
If you have ANY attachment to the items you are considering hanging these on, then don't do it. You will regret it. I would much rather patch small holes and touch up the paint then lose valuable items (and memories) to these inconsistently effective products.

While the hooks are moderately easy-to-break and rarely last much more than a year under ordinary use, they're so easy to mount -and, with the no-damage adhesive, mountable anywhere -that these hooks make it simple to hang up what should be hung up. I use them frequently and hang up a lot of stuff that I wouldn't if it took actual effort and put a hole in the wall.
For what it cost I'm happy.It was very hard to find a shower curtain with any shade of orange in it.The material is pretty cheap, feels more like a curtain liner, very thin.Overall happy with it and plan on keeping it
