Curtain Rods!

I am obsessed with 3M Command products and I use them all over my house. I rent, and living in an old house with plaster walls makes hanging things up a huge hassle. And full disclosure: I *know* this isn't a classy solution but when you're desperate you're willing to try anything :) I use these jumbo slate hooks in my bedroom to hold up a curtain rod! You'll have to get a pretty thin rod for it to sit securely inside of the hook area - the one I purchased was from IKEA and it works great. I wish they made these jumbo hooks in a style that didn't look so... warehouse-y... but honestly I'm so grateful for them that I'll take what I can get. Excellent stick quality, reliable, and have/will buy again. EDITED TO ADD: I wanted to add a little more info on the type of rods that will work with these hooks. In my bedroom I use the IKEA RÄCKA Curtain rod, which is 3/4" diameter. It sits easily inside of the Command hooks. I used this solution in my living room as well (see second attached photo - don't judge as I'm in the middle of redecorating, ha!) but because this rod was much longer, I used 3 hooks to hold it up. For my living room, I used Threshold™ Industrial Cage Curtain Rod from Target. It is listed as 1" diameter and fits in the hook, though it does sit a little higher in the hook. Something super important to note is that not many finials will work with these hooks since they sit so closely to the wall. I was disappointed that the pretty globe finials that came with my Target rod set wouldn't work - they were just too big. The finials I got from IKEA did work, however - they were much smaller and lay flat/flush with the wall. Edit 2/24/17: I attached a new picture - months later these are still holding strong with no issues. :)

Good Alternative To Curtain Brackets For Renters!

They were easy to install and, so far, they seem to be holding up my curtains and rod well. The black makes them look a little more highend and less like plastic. My only complaint is I wish they stuck out a bit furthey and gave the curtains a little more clearance from the wall. But except for that small issue, for a renter, they are awesome :) I got the icy morn curtains here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01JU853M2/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1&th=1 And the kenney beckett curtain rod here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009U20I8S/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Perfect

I love command hooks. I have a whole bunch since I rent. This is my first time using the ones rated for 7.5 lbs. it actually uses 2 command strips on the back and seems to hold very firmly. Very happy with this purchase and will likely be ordering more. *update- 2 years later and the command hook is still holding strong- even now that the plant is much larger

Amazingly useful!

I'm very happy with these command hooks! I used them to hang up curtains and so far they have held up well! I couldn't find this color in store but was glad to see Amazon had it. The hooks are plastic but the color makes them look nicer (and you can't tell from unless you touch them). They were easy to set up and seem to be sticking well to my masonry wall. Overall, I'm very pleased!

Great for my closet

This hook that is just what I needed in my closet. I have a bad habit of tossing my "not quite dirty" clothes on a chair in my bedroom or on the closet floor. I got this hook to put on the inside of my closet wall so I have a place to hang the "not quite dirty" clothes because I'm tired of not being able to sit in my chair or having to navigate the minefield of clothes on the floor. The hook was really easy to mount on the wall (just like the other Command hooks) and then you need to wait 30 minutes before using it. So far, so good. I might get another one of these for my work bag!

Wish I'd Thought of This Sooner!

After my husband tried to drill a hole and the sheet rock started crumbling, I remembered this had happened in every house I've lived in and thought there must be another way. I got 2 of these hooks in black to match the rod and stuck them on the wall. the 84" lined black-out drapes are still hanging, several months later. After this epiphany, I found other colors and sizes of Command hooks and hung at least 5 more sets of curtains and drapes this way. I'll never try to use a drill to hang curtains again.

Using to hold up a curtain rod

I have been trying for 3 years to get a curtain rod to stay up in my kids' room but anytime the curtain gets pulled on by kids, who are a little rough when they open it since they are short, the screws just rip out of the wall. And, yes, I have used those plastic things that are supposed to hold screws in drywall. Anyway, I was getting hooks for something else and saw reviews recommending them for curtain rods... GENIUS!!!!! I only needed two for the ends and that curtain rod is not budging, even in the center of the window where there is now no support. It is close to the wall but there is still plenty of room to open and close the curtain. Whoever first thought of doing this, THANK YOU!

Great Alternative to Putting a Hole in the Wall!!

This thing is great. It has adhesive tape in the back and sticks to pretty much any surface. It also easily peels off when you want to remove it, in cases where you are renting a house or moving, or just moving things around. As you can see in the photograph it can hold fairly large object and has a big enough hook for hanging pretty much everything you want. It says the capacity is around 7lbs, but it feels like you can go much higher. The knife collection I have hanging up is probably around that, and it shows no signs of struggling. You can probably hang havier objects like potted plants or bigger decorations without any issue. Any money spent on this pays for itself because it means there will be no holes on walls, paint damage from tape, or other issues which will cost you much more in the long run.

Great to have something that can hold some weight without ...

I bought this to stick on a painted metal bookshelf at work to hold my heavy bag. I often carry breakfast and lunch for two, a book, a phone charger and a change of clothes and sometimes an ipad in this bag. It can weigh a lot. This hook holds it securely without any complaint. I cleaned the bookshelf with an alcohol wipe first and allowed it to dry and followed the instructions about leaving it without weight to allow the adhesive to work. Great to have something that can hold some weight without having to permanently alter (drill holes) in the bookshelf.

Great for hanging curtains in apartment

I live in an apartment that didn't come with curtain fixtures. It did, however, come with weird sun screens that are mounted in an awkward place, unrolling from a big metal box that prevents really any kind of traditional mounting systems. So, I bought a set of these and mounted them onto the metal box. Then, I got a 5/8" diameter, 48"-84" long curtain rod. A year later, my (pretty heavy) blackout curtains are still up! So, would definitely recommend these for any renters looking to mount some curtains without damage. My only wish is that Command would make some hooks with the same weight limit, just more attractive-looking. These will do, though.
