I bought this product to attach 3 framed prints to the wall. I had bought the framed prints for my partner for his birthday as he had been wanting this particular artwork for ages and was so excited. We used 4x 5kg command strips on each frame - each frame weighed approx 6kgs. Less than 24 hours after attaching these to the walls the artwork came crashing down, ruining all 3 frames - my partners entire birthday present had been destroyed! The strips had not adhered to the backs of the frames, despite having overcompensated for the weights. The frames were made out of wood - a material which this product is recommended for! To use the word unimpressed would be an understatement - I’m disappointed, extremely angry and frustrated that his present is now ruined and the money spent on his present (and these overpriced products) completely wasted!! Do not buy these!

3 different pictures have all fallen when this product was used, couple of the strips came off on their own, couple had to be taken off after the other side came off on their own, took off paint and outer part of the dry wall, the room was the proper temp and the strips that had to be removed were removed according to product package instructions

I bought a large package of these in black because I didn't want to risk damaging a home we lease. As others have mentioned my artwork cam crashing down. I even added two sets for a less than 8lb piece thinking the 16lb strength would assure it would not fall. It fell. I am sad because I really want these to work!!

We recently used the large command picture hanging strips. We hung three pictures and used four strips on each picture. Not even 24 hours later one of the pictures fell off the wall smashing a vase along the way. So after coming on here and reading these reviews we decided to remove the other pictures. While we were taking the other pictures down all of the strips were coming right off the wall with little effort. I am so very angry with your product, the money that I wasted on it, and that one of my favorite vases is broken. I must also say that we have used these strips in the past and have never had this problem. What is up 3M?

I actually love all the command products. In this case I needed to hang a spice rack holder that came with our cabinets but did not fit. We decided just to mount it to the wall in the pantry. I am tired of trying to mount stuff on walls with screws, anchors, whatever. So i remembered I had some picture hanging strips and used those. It works great! I use all the command products throughout my house and outside. The small hooks worked great for halloween decorations on the porch!

The first picture I hung, fell later that night and damaged my wall. I thought maybe the picture was too heavy. I tried hanging a smaller picture on the wall and it lasted about 3 weeks and it too fell in the middle of the night and woke me and my husband from a sound sleep. It did not damage the wall this time, but it did break tiny pieces of the glass off. I would not recommend these to anyone.

I'm a photographer that produces lots of framed images for clients and I always recommend the Command Picture Hanging Strips. I normally go with the #17206 Large White Picture Hanging Strips which provide the strength needed to hold my larger images. I love the fact that if I need to move pictures within my own home that they easily remove without any damage to my walls. Awesome product!

I mounted a simple 8 X 10 framed certificate on my office wall a year ago with these strips, thinking I'd be able to take it down and move it later when I received more plaques to hang. I was shocked whe, despite my efforts to slowly pull the frame off the wall, it took a huge piece of drywall with it. I was able to cover it with another photo, but I can kiss my security deposit goodbye as it will take a lot of work to repair and paint the damage. This is exactly what I'd hoped this product wouldn't do. I should have gone with nails.

I'm back again, that's right! I've just purchased more picture hanging strips to hang up more grandchildren pictures. They are gorgeous on my wall. They are very neat and straight. No ruler!! No nails!!! and No Man!!!! Thanks 3M-Command Large Picture Hanging Strips!!!!!

I bought this to hang a dry erase board, and i followed the directions to a T, with the rubbing alcohol and pressing for 30 seconds and everything. Based on the weight of the board, it should have just taken two strips, but it fell off the wall over night. In the end, I went through 8 pairs trying to get it to stay up, but it didn't. I am dissapointed.
