Command Medium Picture Hanging Strips, Damage Free Hanging Picture Hangers, No Tools Wall Hanging Strips for Living Spaces, 16 White Adhesive Strip Pairs(32 Command Strips)

These are great. But instead of adhering 1 pad to the wall, then the other to the picture frame and hoping they line up. I attached both pads to the picture frame, then attached to wall. You have to hold it a bit longer, but guarantees the pads line up.

So I used the command strips to hang the picture frames and the magazines. I am super happy with them. They worked so well and are very easy to use. I can take my magazines off anytime to read them and I can pull off the picture frames if I want to switch out the pictures. Worth the jumbo pack, especially for the price.

I purchased these about six months ago, and have been meaning to write a review. Let me start by first saying, I do generally like Command adhesive products, and have generally had great success using these products (in my office at work, and in a rented apartment), but this is the worst of many packages of Command products I have purchased. First, these did not come in the 3M Command packaging - these came in a clear plastic bag, like how you get the screws and bolts for DIY furniture. I was like, okay, Ive gotten other products off Amazon that didnt have the original packaging, assuming because of damage in the warehouse or something, and they worked perfectly fine. So, I kept these. BIG MISTAKE. These were the worst Command items to work with. First, is just about impossible to get the backing off these strips - Im talking, if you are lucky enough to get a 2mm edge free with your fingernails, you need to bite with your front teeth and try to pull the rest off. Secondly, similar to what other reviewers have stated, even if you do get the backing off (sometimes a fine layer of paper remains) , the adhesive mostly peels off, then snaps back in a messy blob...its kind like that goopy adhesive on the back of new credit cards, but way thinner, stickier, and impossible to straighten out and attempt to use. Finally, I did manage to get some usable strips out of my pack (of 16 sets, I believe) and at home hung a 10x12 frame - not heavy - to have it fall after a few weeks. And because maybe Im a moron, Ive used strips from the same package and rehung the picture only to have it eventually fall two more times. Just yesterday it fell again and the frame finally broke, which prompted me to write this review. At work, I hung a much larger, heavier dry erase calendar and it fell twice as well. I finally ended up using clear pushpins all around the bottom corners to keep it in place. The person who moves into my office after me is going to think Im nuts. Please note, despite all the negativity, I have purchased the same item on Amazon in the past and those hanging strips worked great - I would just be careful purchasing from this particular item option because Im suspicious that this is a fake 3M product, or if it is, it may be a defective batch that someone chose to sell anyway. Its not like im out a ton of money, its just disappointing.

This product came loose in the package, there were some directions but nothing specific as to size or type of use with it. Usually command strips come in a sealed clear plastic attached to a card that gives a description of the product and uses. Not here

Came in a random bag in multiple languages. I dont know if these are real as Ive looked at various command strips and the printing of the arrow under 3M are all the same, while this is totally different. That said, they work. Its plastic and some glue. But dont expect a box of 3m strips.

I have 15 pictures hanging so far and very happy Im not nailing holes in my walls.

Adhesion takes time, make sure you read the instructions!! I didnt and my wooden frame fell down like 3 times... And once you have it up... it might fall down again if you try to adjust it because its crooked. And it doesnt hurt to add more than what it recommends just in case. But once I got it properly up, it hasnt fallen down for over a month.

I’ve read reviews from folks who received defective or possibly fake ones, which I don’t doubt is possible. But mine work great! In fact, these have been the ONLY things i’ve gotten to stick on my textured walls, (WARNING: products say to only use on smooth flat surfaces) but I didn’t see those instructions but all my paintings have been hanging for months with zero issues. Packaging was weird, just an opaque plastic sleeve with a card that gives some product information. Definitely did not look official.

Two days after hanging, my two framed photos are still up, but Im not sure I would use these again. They were hung on painted, flat wallboard that was thoroughly cleaned with alcohol then let dry. When it came time for step 4 where the frame is temporarily removed, the wall strips came away with the frame strips. I re-pressed for an additional 30 seconds, each set of strips, but they wouldnt separate and leave the wall strips on the wall. Fortunately the whole frame did adhere to the wall when pressed, so I crossed my fingers and left them. I think a better direction would be lightly click together. Then the separating wouldnt have such a great pull on the wall strip.

Works great. Easy instructions
