DO NOT BUYAmberWe followed the instructions exactly as listed and two out of six frames we ordered cracked. Had to find a sturdier alternative. Would not recommend1
Do not useClaireWhile these are the easiest way to hang the frames, they do not stay sticky. I have command strips that have lasted years and these fell within a few months, which also caused the frames to break. Would not recommend.1
Not happy Rosa IvethDestroyed my wall 😭😡1
Don't buy it .... Does not work ... Should be zero starLenaBrought 3 sets ( total of 6) of ALFTA hook for 6 Rodalm picture frames, as recommended. Each picture contained a poster print - hardly any additional weight. All 6 picture frames fell off the wall at different times within 2 weeks. I enforced it with 3M Command strips and still did not hold. 2 of the picture frames were damaged when they fell. I finally gave up and switched to traditional picture hanging hooks with nails. Will not trust this product for hanging pictures.1
5 star product, however some advice FrankieThis ALFTA gets very sticky on dry wall and is somewhat difficult to remove unless you do this: use floss and attack the corners of the hook using a flossing motion to slowly loosen the stickiness and it’ll eventually come off. Be patient! We like to hang pairs of art side by side and one of them was 2 millimeters lower than the other. We couldn’t get the hook off until we tried to flossing method. We blow dried, used pliers to yank it off. We don’t recommend. Use floss to get it off and then floss your teeth!5
TerribleZachDoes not work on the products it is recommended for1
WHY??KWhy are the Alfta hooks recommended by Ikea to work with their Ribba Frames?? They DON'T. These frames are almost 1.5" DEEP with the Ribba sawtooth glued to the interior backing that is 1" from the wall. WHO DESIGNED THESE? Garbage design from a company that usually prides itself on good design, but these are un-hangable using the Ikea recommendations. Don't waste your time and money.1
DID NOT STICKPaulaThese fell off the wall and my frames broke.1
Terrible quality. Buy 3M insteadWendyThe adhesive is way too strong and took a huge piece of paint off my wall after being stuck to the wall for just a few minutes! I totally regret trying these and will return the rest of mine.1
Sticks well in many cases but you have to test 1stMichaelI have used these hooks a couple of times. They have worked very well on my wood walls but not well on my drywall walls. You need to test these hooks first on your different wall types to figure out which ones will work for these hooks and which won't. Each home or apartment construction can be different.4
Worst decision everAnnaWould give a zero if I could! Once I tried to remove the adhesive it was stuck to my wall paint and dry wall. Huge damage! Not renter friendly. Would definitely use nails or anything other than this. I wish I could insert pictures to show the damage these made.1
goo AmyGreat product 5
Hook is too shortBruceI got these because they were suggested with the Rodalm frames. But the hook barely works its too short. 3
Good tool BrennaNot sure how it will affect my wall but looks good and is working, so far so good 4
Well DesignedDavidThese are great. I use them alongside a few Command products to hang everything in my apartment. I have removed dozens of the pads with zero damage. The foam adhesive on these are thicker than command strips. Not necessarily bad, just different. Sometimes it can come in handy if you need the hook to stick out further. They also work with the Command adhesive if you have it on hand. These also fit perfectly into the Ikea Skadis Pegboard holes. Just be careful not to overload it. I used 4 to hang the 22"x22" one. I can say from experience that the plastic hooks will fail and shear off before the adhesive does. This was after I was accidentally pulled down hard on the pegboard. Which is a good thing as it damages the replaceable hook, rather than your wall.5
sturdy hooksHannahI bought this to hang a framefor our wedding photo. The material is made of plastic but to my surprise, it is comparable to the other products in the market that are more expensive. 5
ExcellentSrikanthVery good product very easy to stick.5
Does what it’ supposed toAlbertIt sticks5
VersitileTopeI don't like putting holes in the wall mainly because I'm not that good but also because they are ugly when you take down the item. The Afta are very easy to install and remove. Plus they are very versitile.4
