I love this product; I haven't had any problems at all. I purchased this product about a month ago and they are all still sticking well. I used these on the back of my computer desk to help organize the cables, and to keep the wires from showing under my desk. Still really great to my desk, computer case, and I even have one on the wall to hold the end of my phone charger up when not being used.

I saw one review in which the person says they had a bad experience with getting these to stick for a while. I know that with traditional 3M Command Strip Hooks I had to get the ones made for bathrooms or moist areas. When I spoke to customer service about it they had said that sometimes regular 3M command strips will not stick to some dark color or some washable paint on walls. The waterproof ones addressed this problem.

But as far as these cord clips go, they have stuck strong to my wall. It's just very important to be really careful about washing the wall with alcohol, waiting for it to fully dry, placing the strip, holding it firm against the wall for AT LEAST 30 seconds, and finally waiting an hour before putting anything in the clip. By trial and error in the past with other 3M Command products I can tell you that the instructions should be followed exactly or you will find everything you put up falling down.

I can not believe that this 3M product couldn't be found in stores (eg. Walmart, Walgreens,) when this could be a great organization tool! Anyway, I bought this item to hang christmas lights outside. I was thinking of purchasing the small one or the medium one and I decided to purchase the small one but more on quantity. It holds the wires properly however few hours later some of the cord clips started to fall down. I should have bought the medium ones since there's more space for the tape to attach plus more area for the cord clips to attach to the wall. However, I still love the product that I gave it a 4 star rating.

I used these cord guides to run a Ethernet cable out to my router. If you're guiding the cord along the floor, then the cord-guides should do their job, but, if you try to use them to run a cord up a wall, or over a door-way, then you'll be out of luck. The guides will hold at first, and then fall off--(and I applied the adhesive according to the instructions on the box). The cord also tends to just fall out of the guide--its not held very securely.

Just use some clear tape, or duct-tape, if the cord will be out of sight. You'll get better results for much cheaper. Remember that no adhesive will work on a dirty surface, so clean the wall before you stick stuff to it, and be aware of the type of paint on your wall, so that you don't tear off huge pieces of paint and lose a security deposit on your place.

These are great for anywhere you need to keep cords out of the way- we use them to help keep up christmas lights too! holds the cord securely, and yet still easy to get the cord out again!

These cord holders (they aren't really clips, they don't pinch your cords) were just what I needed. The cables for my printer, speakers, etc. used to fall behind the table whenever my laptop wasn't there. Now they don't. These are especially useful for cords that aren't always there (like my laptop's power supply) as they can be opened and closed over and over with no ill effect.

3M. The name says it all. Easy to install and holds cables strong. Haven't had a chance to remove them yet but I'm sure there won't be paint peel off.

I got these so I could manage all of the cables running around my desk at college without damaging the furniture. They hold very well, are easy to open when you want to move the cable, and can take quite a bit of pressure without breaking, especially for how small they are. They keep my desk in order and keep the ends of my USB cables from being rolled over by my chair (I hate when that happens).

These are easy to install and remove without harming the wall or paint. They're great for holding and grouping cords along walls. For picture frames or anything heavier, they're probably not strong enough.

Very easy to install and held the cat5 cable I needed to get up off the ground easily. Easy to remove and reset if you make a mistake. Will use again.

Had a run of cable that goes under an entrance way door and couldn't use the typical nail in cable run clip. While I haven't tried 3M's 'removal' yet, they are doing the job and are perfectly sized.
