i bought the large hanging strips to hang a picture. The instructions say to use 4 strips for up to 16lbs. My picture is about 10lbs but i figured better to be safe than sorry. I placed the strips as directed and everything seemed fine. About a half hour later the picture came crashing down. Not only did it rip off some paint from where the strips were, but when the picture feel it chipped the wall molding as well as broke the picture. I am so upset because this picture frame is an antique family heirloom that my grandfather passed down to me. Very dissapointed!

My wife got these command strips to hang up my diploma frame. It seemed like a good idea, and we did not have to put any holes in the wall. I had always heard that command strips were great, so I figured why not. Then one night, maybe 3 or 4 months after we had put the frame up, we had gone to bed, and I heard this loud crash. I walked out into the living room, and there was my diploma frame lying on the floor. Thankfully, it landed on the carpet, and the glass did not shatter, but my wood frame was completely destroyed. If you have ever bought a frame for your diploma, you know how expensive they are. My frame was within the weight limit at around 3.6 pounds. I would recommend not using this product, as anything you hang on these strips risks falling and being damaged, or in my case, destroyed.

I have recently purchased your Command Picture Hanging Strip Large. It did not perform as advertised/labeled on the box. Last night, the 2 sets of strip failed and the frame being held up crashed onto the floor. The frames were well below the recommended capacity.

I chose this product because where I'm living at does not allow nails in the walls. We are only allowed thumb tacs. After seeing a commercial and reading a few reviews I decided to use this product to hang two different pictures. After reading AND following the instructions, I felt that I would've been better off hammering nails into the wall. Not only was it more of a pain to align the pictures to the adhesive on the wall but my pictures would only stay up for short periods of time. I came home a couple different times to my pictures not all my walls. Luckily, I hung the pictures in locations where they would only have a short drop such as above a desk or bed. It seemed that this would happen about every three weeks or so. Now that I am moving, I had to remove the frames and the adhesive attached to the walls. Most of the strips came off clean, without damaging the paint. One strip took a small piece of paint with it. But then the last strip, no matter how slow and how carefully I tried, the paint was still lifting with the adhesive strip. I am very disappointed in the overall product.

I bought this 2 months ago and i was happy I can hang my 2 mirrors without putting a hole in my freshly painted wall. I don't know if it's the temperature change or what, but both my mirrors fell off the wall and broke. The command strip did not hold. It was supposed to be able to hold up to 16lbs and the mirrors were not heavy, but it didn't do that. Now I lost both mirrors. Very angry customer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been buying these large picture hangers for a couple years... they make hanging a picture yourself so easy! I live with my kids they normally don’t help me hang picture! No tools required, and no holes in the walls!

This product is terrible. I used them according to manufacturers instructions and every single picture I had fell off the wall within hours. I have very light and small frames I tried to use them on and they still fell, even when using the large/heavy strips. It’s very disheartening because the product is not cheap and it is nothing but money wasted. Very, very poor product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a sample of these strips from 3m to review and I have to say I am pleasantly surprised by how well they work. I was skeptical about strips being strong enough to hold up a picture frame, but they are great. So easy to use and have a strong hold. I will be purchasing more of this product for sure.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have really enjoyed using these. I have seasonal plaques that I change and have a set of the Command holders on the back of each one. It's just pop one off and put up the next. So easy and no paint damage.

I recently used these strips and they are a real piece of garbage. I hung a 5 pound picture frame using four pairs of the 16 pound strips. Within one month the picture frame fell and busted everything that was beneath it which included expensive picture frames, glass globes, etc. I would NEVER buy command strips again. It peeled the paint off my walls and chipped the sheetrock. This happens with EVERY command product I have ever used. I will never invest in their products ever again.
