10 lb & 5 lb Medium and Small Picture Hanging Strips 18 Assorted Pairs (36 Strips), Damage-Free Hanging Picture Hangers, Wall Hanging Strips for Christmas Decorations

Big fan of this brand and of this product. I’ve gotten this size before and also the extra large ones. I use them to put pictures up on the wall and it has always worked out in my favor. Good value for the money- although the packaging is poor.. comes in a huge box with lots of empty space.. they function as they should and hold up on the wall for a long time- I would say they’re durable and sticky! Very easy to remove if you follow the instructions on how to do so- if you just remove by pulling it off, it will take the paint with them.. I only needed 2 pairs to hold up this picture (4 total).

Was skeptical about using these. You'll be surprised how strong the adhesive and velcro is. So easy to use, peel and stick, no nails, hammers or holes in your walls.

The third set !!!!!! 5/10 lb Easy on Easy off and still holding!!!!

I have tried a lot of command strip sizes and types because we rent and try not to make holes in the walls, because some decorations just wouldn't look good with nails, and because of the ability to change your mind without damaging the wall. When I bought these, I specifically wanted really small velcro strips. Unfortunately, as far as I'm aware, you can't just buy the small velcros by themselves. The issue with the non-velcro strips is that if you need to cover up the pull tab such that you can't pull it (such as behind a wall decoration where you don't want the tab sticking out), then of course you can't pull it, which means you will have to rip it off the wall and damage it in the process. I accidentally learned this the hard way. So, if you get wall damage from brand-name Command Strips, it's because you didn't pull the tab as you're supposed to. So these velcro strips prevent that issue by letting you pull the item off the wall while leaving the command strip on the wall intact, which then lets you access the pull tab. Super handy is that you can trim the tabs of command strips with a sharp pair of scissors to keep them from sticking out as you see fit, but obviously you can't cut off the whole thing otherwise you wouldn't be able to pull it. While looking at this listing, I was confused about what I'd be getting. As of right now, the first listing states that you get small medium strip pairs, but only gives the weights for the medium and large strips. The image showing the size specifications of various command strips also doesn't include the small one, which is what I needed to know given that that is part of what I'm purchasing. The listing DOES say in the special feature section under the product details that you're getting the small 4 lb ones as well as the medium ones. So why list the weight capacity of medium and large strips if you're getting small and medium ones? And why not list the size of the small ones? The new clear backs are slightly more difficult to peel off and are much harder to see once removed and therefore dispose of, but they feel like they might protect the adhesive better. The listing says that the command strips are the same, but I swear that the velcro feels easier to stick together. I wish that the velcro ones came in even smaller sizes. In my picture, you can see that command strips do come in smaller sizes, but they are the regular, non-velcro versions. There may be a practical reason for this though, such as not being able to support much weight. The small ones were still too big for one of my decorations, but thankfully that decoration lets me hang it with a nail. Do note that unfortunately, not everything can be hung with command strips and you can't apply them to every surface. There are of course stated weight limits, but I think the velcro versions do come with the disadvantage that they can't hold as much because the velcro kind of pulls off itself (I have not fully tested this theory that they can't hold as much though). Also, once you pull the tab of a command strip, you can't use it anymore and you throw it away. Overall, this purchase suited most of my needs.

These do work great, but depending on the paint on your wall, its use can differ. They are good for dorms, but sometimes fall because of the paint used, and often times when they fall, they rip the paint off. They do also tend to rip the paint off when taking them down as well. But when they did work, they held up pretty well. So I would be careful where you use them, or put painter's tape down on the wall and attach them to stop those issues. They came with a lot of them, so I would recommend if you need a large amount and are sticking them to something that is not a typically painted wall.

Does the job

Works

Pictures won't stay on the the walls no matter the size, I'd say maybe it's the paint used but I used another brand previously and had no problems with them staying on the walls so I will stick to my previous brand.
