User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars I’m sold
After watching the infomercial on these hooks I had to try them. They have worked great on all of the pictures I have hung up. They are quick and easy to use, my 13 yr old daughter even hung her own pictures in her room. I haven’t hung anything really heavy and don’t know that I would but for simple picture hanging I’ve been very satisfied!

1 Star Know your walls
If you are going to buy this product make sure that your walls are really thin. Never in the commercial do they tell you that if you have medium-strong walls (even if they sound like they are hollow), the hook wont go in. This buy can be a total loss of money.

5 Stars LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
These are the most amazing things i have ever owned! they work just like they show on the commercial!!! MUST HAVE

1 Star Buy screws…
These things are terrible. I had one go in easily and work fine, but the other 3 I’ve tried I still can’t get to work. The big problem is these hooks need about a 6″ diameter circle behind the wall from wherever you screw them, as they need to twist. They also, of course, don’t go through studs.

Now I have 3 holes in my wall, one of them MUCH larger than a screw hole, and still no hook. I also have several cuts on my hand from trying to push these damn things in. Think of bending sharp clothes hangers, which is exactly all these are.

With screws I would have been done in 2 minutes, now I’ve spent about 20 and have one hook in. Throwing the rest out, going to buy some $0.50 screws instead. Horrible product in every way, expect under rare conditions where they are in the perfect spot to work (which is rarely ever centered).

5 Stars useful in owens corning basement system
I have an Owens Corning basement system, and there are no drywall or studs. To hang shelving, the panels have to be removed and wood studs installed, which the company says costs $125. I bought these Hercules Hooks for $15 and put up the shelves and my stereo speakers and after a month they are still holding up well. I have placed some satellite speakers on the shelving, and I’d estimate the weight at 10-12 lbs. The main speakers are probably in the same range, weight-wise. I’m very happy with the results.
