" ... terrible product it’s impossible to expose the sticky side making it impossible to apply it onto the item that you want to hang ... "
" ... I prepped the area and applied this 2 sided adhesive tape but within one week the picture fell and the glass shattered. ... "
" ... It’s fallen twice. ... "
" ... Fell right off. ... "
" ... This product did hold well for the first 2 weeks, after that they lost their stickiness and my cushions started to slip again. ... "

" ... Not one thing I hung with this tape stuck. ... Might be able to hold a napkin to another napkin, or a photo to a wall, but by no means would it ever hold 10 pounds as it states. ... "
