I love the idea of the command products, but I having trouble removing the adhesive strips if they have been left up for any length of time. The strips rip as I am pulling them (slowly) and then they are so short I can't get a hold of them to try again. I have tried to pull them off with pliers but I have damaged my walls. So I have hooks stuck to my walls that I can't get off. I guess if I have to use them I would make sure they would be staying up for quite a while.
