Cons:

• "The tape did not hold, the picture."

Surface Compatibility

Pros:

• "Product is thick enough to apply to almost every surface."
• "I hung very lightweight picture on a stucco wall. I tried Command strips, putty, double sided tape and it always fell down within an hour. This is the only thing that worked!!"

• "We have several small area rugs and we use this tape to secure them to our wood floors. They securely attach the rugs to the floor."

• "I've used this on different surfaces and materials. And it performs the same on all of them. Removal is very simple."
• "This stuff will stick to anything and can be easily removed if needed."

Cons:

• "Product description said adheres to any surface. When it arrived directions listed surfaces it would work on and where I wanted to use it (basement wall) was a surface it would not adhere to."
• "This product is not recommended on painted surfaces... it is very sticky and will damage painted walls when pulled off."
• "On the box it says you can use it on brick, stucco, drywall, etc... Inside the box is a paper that say do not use on drywall or painted surfaces or rough surfaces. Wasted money!!!"
• "It doesn’t work on any surface I’ve tried. I just had a frame fall and now there is glass EVERYWHERE."

• "Does not easily removed as advertised. Also destroyed the drywall when it fell down."
