The clip part is awesome! The issue seems to be in the outdoor adhesive strip. I was hanging a lightweight string of patio lights, using clips as directed (every 2 feet) and in one day it was all shattered on the ground :( I re-used the clips on an indoor project with a normal command strip and its perfect. Issue seems to be the outdoor strip?? I could not return to the store as I used all the outdoor strips, but now my stash of regular command strips is depleted. Totally bummed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these for the first time this year. I hung them on the metal flashing at the edge of my roof. They work great! Very easy to use and it really cut my install time down. And I like that I can use them again next year.

I bought the large pack of clips, but I could not use many of them because the paper backing does not release, it is stuck to the adhesive, can't peel off. The clips are for outdoor use, perhaps with different adhesive? My use is indoors, so I used the adhesive strips from other Command hooks I had, but that leaves me short of strips. I also bought a bunch of trays called Caddys, smaller and larger sizes. They come with very thin clear strips that promptly fell off the places I mounted them. So I again used normal strips from other hooks and that works. But now I'm short a bunch of strips to mount my regular hooks.

I bought these to hang string lights on the patio.. Applied one about every 4 feet. They do not stick. By the time I finished one side of the installation the other had fallen in several places. Most of the sticky strips aren't sticky at all.. Some are stuck very tightly..others continuously fall.. I've used command before always with great results.. Not this time. Maybe my package was a bad batch?? Either way,I now have broken lights that have to be replaced due to falling.. Very frustrated.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these to hang lights around my back porch and they work great! They are nice because they are clear and holds the the lights up nicely. They were very easy to hang and made hanging the lights even easier!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had this in mind for hanging up our LED string lights, but wasn't able to use it at all due to its limited uses. Not for brick, siding, or sawn wood surfaces. There's no other way to hang up our lights as we don't have any smooth surfaces around where we were needing the lights.

We hung these less than two feet apart around our fence. Some stick but most don’t. It’s rained 3 times and every time more fall down. We’re hanging the lights for our wedding and are disappointed they aren’t working. Not sure what we’re going to do. We’re disappointed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] [Employee of 3m-command] I used these to install a string of Bistro lights around an aluminum patio cover. I placed them 12 inches apart so there would be plenty of support for the heavy lights and cords. I had to trim them a little with wire cutters to get the thick cord in but they work It's really good I love it

Bought these last weekend and i love the clip. However the clear strips are terrible. They keep coming off all surfaces they have been put on and they are indoor. I cannot imagine how they would be outdoor. Ended up using thicker 3m command strips to get them to stick.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I followed the directions and waited over an hour before hanging the lights with the clips. I tested them inside on my mantle and the lights are holding great. There was no damage to the surface. I think these are perfect for hanging different lights for year round use. The only drawback would be they are clear so you can see the adhesive backing and the tab to remove the clips. If you are hanging lights from the interior side of a porch, this would not be an issue.
