Does what it says
Easy to apply and works well. Nothing further to add. Does what you expect. A little pricey for how much you get but overall it is good.
Very good. Needed to stick photos and things in a memory book. Olny down side is that they are white backed
Good adhesion but beware this may take paint off your walls!
Used this in place of some screws under my desk for a cable tidy but went a bit mad and started using it elsewhere without thinking and took a bit of paint off the walls, whoops!
Used this stuff to hold up a shelf on the wall for. Our WiFi router and also to hold the bumper for our newborns cot secure to the cot. Brilliant stuff, can use it for alsorts
Must have for crafty people
Amazing piece of craft kit. Adaptable and super sticky! Be careful if you’re wanting it for fabric. It will stick but I recommend sewing very simple stiches along the edges to ensure it cant go anywhere if it starts to peel. (You’ll need a thimble or be careful as it’s a good quality, thick velcro)

Perfect very strong
Works brilliantly used it to mount my sky box and xbox one s to the wall to hide it behind my sofa for a clean setup and they work perfectly on my painted walls
Very useful product.
Simple to use, and very effective.. My elderly neighbour had bought a flyscreen, but it did not fit very well. I put the Velcro tape on the door frame, and on the screen. It now fits very well, and is easily removed.
Does what it says.
This is doing exactly what I wanted it to do. You cannot ask better than that.
Good Produc
Really pleased with this product.
Brought it to put some pictures up and it done the job perfectly, very easy to use and really good holding power.
Plenty of tape on the roll too.
Brilliant!
Fab. It got lost in the post somehow, contacted them and instantly got another one sent out. Bought this to use at work as I work in a school. Just want I wanted thank you!

Really handy for sticking things up around the house. The adhesive is defeated by steam or any water, which is frustrating, but it stays firm if in a dry room e.g. office or living room. I use it to stick TV remotes to the wall
So strong even the glue can't hold i
Great product although the backing glue needs to be stronger as the velcro grip is immense.
Sticky not good
Best to iron on the Velcro, although there are no instructions regarding this, works fine then.
Great product !
I used this to hang a lot of picture frames. I was looking for a good quality Velcro stick on tape as I wanted to avoid nailing them in the wall. This purchase was a great choice. I have ordered another one as it’s very practical.
Strong adhesive and good quality velcro
Good quality velcro with very strong adhesive. I bought this to use on the back of my TV cabinet to neatly hide away my TV’s connection port box. It works really well and since installing it I have had no issues. Installing is very clean and simple. I like this solution because it means I can access the box when I want by detaching it and reattaching by velcro when I’m done. This velcro is very versatile, you can use it for many other thing like hanging up frames and attaching power extension plugs under your desk table top.
There are 2 aspects of this velcro strip to consider, those are the adhesive side and the velcro side. When hanging your items you’d obviously have to take into consideration the weight of your item but generally once attached the velcro side holds up very well and is quite strong and sturdy.
Over all it is a very good versatile product, it offers a great alternative solution to nails and superglue. It is very good quality and reasonably priced making it good value for money. I highly recommend it, 5 stars. Hope this helps.
Cannot beat Velcro
Usual high quality velcro product. Eadhesive backed and as ling as you give it time to set on place it will stay put. Used to attach L plates to daughters car and over the years literally hundreds of other uses.
Few flexible fixings match up to this stuff and can’t think of another you can peel and reattach time and time again.

Mess free picture hanging opportunity
Superb, no more holes or nails/screws in the wall. Have hung some large and fairly heavy frames with these.
Strong
This velcro is very strong and sturdy. I bought it for a job but then didn’t need it so use some to hang up some Christmas lights. They didn’t move at all. Really good quality.
Everyone needs a roll, not just for xmas
I use this to stick my garlands up over a huge decorative arch, the fuzzy side to the plaster, sandwich the garland in between the rough side to hold it against the arch, then disguise with leaves off the garland, did it last year too, sticky enough to stick indoors however wouldn’t adhere to the brick outside. I also use it to stick photo frames to the wall.

good adhesio
Did exactly what it was bought for. Stuck well to metal and plastic car interior.
2nd review after a few months;… the Velcro is still stuck to the metal ok but has come away from the plastic. Had to use contact adhesive to stick it to the plastic on the interior of the car.

The best Velcro on the marke
Velcro that actually works absolutely chuffed with this product if you need to have something velcro down or or even attach something to to a wall this stuff will work have used it outside all so in the rain and it does not fail in harsh conditions highly recommend the sticky back of this velcro does not lose adhesion even in damp conditions
Velcro strip white
A range of uses, purchased to refix a pelment on a bathroom blind when fitting broke – job done with velcro
VELCRO
Does what it say on the tin. Adhesion can be improved but good product overall.
Sticks well and lasts.
I purchased this to put up some temporary black out blinds. It has stayed up even with some moisture and condensation. Comes in a very easy to use roll.
Would I buy it again? Yes.

Velcro Sticky Joy!
Bought these to sort out some minor little annoyances of mine around the house. I would never use these for hanging anything heavy but I’ve used them:
* To stick a USB hub onto a desk
* To stick a chalkboard on the kitchen wall
* To create a custom litter picker hanger
They’ve worked great and are so easy to use. Just peel and stick!
Jump-4-Joy
Great product I use to hung all my frames, I’ll be buying more of this product in the future
I bought this stuff to hang some very light pictures on the wall, and it worked perfectly. I bought this long roll, thinking I had lots of stuff to hang up, but in the end there was not so much. But using velcro is addictive. I have been searching for things to hang up! The instructions are clear, and it is very easy to use. Too easy. I’m sure there are a million uses for velcro, and I have made it my mission to find them…..
Buy some of this. It’ll keep you amused through the long winter months.
Good quality & sticks well.
Great product. Sticks quite firmly to plastic. Always us this product for displays and labels. Former & stronger than cheaper similar products so worth paying extra for better performance.

Pretty strong, OK stuff
I probably should have purchased a velcro with stronger adhesive for what I had in mind, as the adhesive occasionally peels off. But it’s fine.
After buying some curtains earlier this Summer I knew I needed some Velcro tape to fix it into place and this is just what I needed. After reading some of the reviews I found that maybe they wouldn’t be as strong as I needed with the mixed opinions but rather than paying extra for the strong version I thought I’d try these first.
There were two sets of curtains I needed it for, some blackout curtains and some insect mesh curtains. I figured it would most likely be strong enough for the latter of the two but was unsure about how the strength would hold up.
When I first opened the box I found it was very easy to use. The Velcro came in a roll of the loop and hook next to each other and it was easy to get out of the packaging without getting in too much of a tangle! After cutting it and peeling the backing off it took no time to attach it to my curtains and around the edge of the windows. I left it a while to settle as instructed and then hung the curtains at the windows and left for work in hopes they’d still be there when I got home!
As I returned to the curtains that evening the insect mesh curtains were still firmly in place which I was pleased about as they were the ones I had hope for. Upstairs though the blackout curtains were on the floor! It was time for a second attempt and this time I sewed the Velcro on to the blackout curtains and since putting them back they have stayed firmly in place for the last month even after being taken down and put back up each day.
I am really pleased with the strength and quality of this Velcro, it has exceeded my expectations and for the cost and amount you get I think it is well worth the money. It has done just what I needed and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy this brand again.
Velcro that sticks... I'm stoked .
Thank goodness bliss I’ve actually found a Velcro brand that sticks were it should, peels were its supposed to do, stays we it’s supposed to stay and isn’t an embarrassment to the Velcro brand! I’ve put up a new fly screen with it today and so far it’s stayed put. Please keep this Braun alive it won’t disappoint. I’m blind..m yes I’m blind and what an endorsement for this product it sure would make for a great TV advert. Best wishes to you all. More reviews to come. Please comment on them if you can. Kezzy56

Alternative picture hanging
Arrived promptly as promised. We used this velcro to put light weight pictures on the walls of our caravan. They are still in place but using velcro we can exchange or replace with no damage to the wall.
Great produc
Love these Velcro products, don’t use any nails on my walls anymore only use these. I find the Velcro brand removes much nicer than the command strips which can sometimes also take the paint with them.

GOOD RESULTS
I carried out a repair job on my cats climbing tree and it worked wonders. I got this to put up blackout screens on my window frames. Good stickiness so I shall be ordering more soon to complete the task.

Not as shown in the photo
Although we were supplied with Velcro hook and look tape of the correct size and spec, it was “loose” not in the retail box as shown in the photo.
I did ot see any mention on the listing that this would be the case.

Works very well for hanging your stuff on the wall.
Great if you’re renting a room and want to keep your deposit by not leaving holes or blue tack marks in the wall. These velcro strips don’t tear out your wall either.
The adhesion between the strip and wall isn’t always very good. I’ve been woken up by receiving falling objects to the face a couple of times, so make sure to use plenty of this stuff for heavy objects.

Hook Only!
It is often difficult to find the hook only part of these Velcro sticky tabs so this was a good purchase for us since we tend to use 95% of the ‘hook’ (hard surface) Velcro only and the ‘loop’ (soft surface) tabs tend to sit in our stationery cupboard when bought in pairs. Good affordable quality, we are very pleased with our purchase. Thank you
Good grip.
Used this to keep netting (muslin) in place over the windows. So far so good. I haven’t used this to suspend any heavy items so I can’t say for certain if it can do the job.
sticks very well..
excellent stuff sticks really well. I’ve stuck foam tiles to the wall for room acoustics using the velcro.. works perfectly.. but it will pull off paint & wallpaper if you want to remove it from the wall.
Grea
Bought as replacement Velcro for fly net over the door and these are great, they stick on and these have been on the outside of the door so it has rained as well and they have stayed on. Only con would be that I would have preferred them to be a bit more sticky but not massive issue it does the job I need it to do
Handy
This is a very handy thing to have in your tool box! Quite strong, will hold a tin wall plaque (proven) and is also good for holding lighter things in place that need accurate spacing, like picture mounts inside a frame. I’m sure there will be other uses for it in the future. Took a while for delivery, but good price and worth the wait. Thank you.
I used this to stick wood to plastic and as others have said the sticky back of the strips isn’t the best, it is fairly easy to pull off. That said, it is holding out well enough for what I wanted – affixing a joystick to a desk. But, I don’t ever move the joystick. If I did, I’m not sure how long the sticky back would last… the Velcro element itself is very good

Money well spe
This is the best fiver I’ve ever spent. My doormats no longer get caught in the doors. Pictures, that I didn’t hand straight the first time, now look like they were done by a pro. The kitchen cupboard door that would never shut right.
Other half thinks I’ve become a DIY guru overnight. Thank god for velcro.
Note to potential buyers: Does not support the weight of an average sized 3yr old or 22inch PC monitor.
This stuff if the bees knees. I purchased this ...
This stuff if the bees knees. I purchased this to help reinforce the velcro lining of a blackout portable curtain I use in my room, as the original velcro stickies that came with the curtain would fall off the wall. I was desperate to find something that would help keep the blackout curtain up so I can get a decent nights (days?) sleep when working nights and this did the trick! Tough stuff, 10/10
Love these little velcro tabs. The backs are very very VERY sticky so hold in place no problem. I’ve used these to hold shoe boxes together in a stack, to hold the drape of some curtains which were not cooperating AND to hold a new rug that was curling up, flat and it keeps in place on hard wood floors too. I’m sure I’ll come up with other uses for them too. Great purchase.
This stuff sticks!
Sticks incredibly well. I have used it for number plates which it handles very well. Don’t use this if you want a flush fitting though as it’s quite thick when stuck together so sits 5-10mm away from the wall. Ideal for handling rough, lumpy surfaces or to handle lips on frames etc
Didn’t know adhesive velcro existed until, when trying to solve a cable management problem, I realised it would be a perfect solution and decided it must be out there. This was a godsend. I wanted a secure and effective solution that was easily reversible and would allow me to affix a couple of things to the underside of my desk(wireless headset receiver and external hard drive) but could also be removed should I need to take them on the move at any point. Also helped with another small issue where double sided adhesive failed. Extremely happy and very useful product.
Oh, my this stuff is STRONG, everyone knows the velcro brand, it is the original non-adhesive, adhesive. I’m using this stuff to hang heavy picture frames, I even have it in my bathroom holding a waterproof multimedia tablet to the wall so I can watch TV in the bath. great produc
Very easy to use! Fantastic
Used this to put up large canvas pictures in a rented flat. Super easy to use and at least after a couple of weeks, the pictures are still firmly there! I was so pleased with my original purchase that I bought another one. Recommended.
Update 02/2020 – I just removed one of my large canvas pictures from the wall. The Velcro was easy to remove and only took the slightest amount paint off. One coat of paint later I cannot see any marks on the wall. Would give 6* to this product if I could!
Ordered on Prime and I’m unsure as to why people say it’s not sticky?!
It stuck to my fingers so well that it actually peeled skin off my fingertips!!
I needed some to create extender straps and it stuck very permanently to each other also.
I’d definitely buy again, especially as a local shop wanted 6.99 fir exactly the same product!
Following nature's lead...
Love this stuff. This particular one, I thought I was buying just the rough hook side, but turned out to be both sides.
Specifically I bought this to help keep car mats from shifting. The sticky side isn’t really enough for daily rough and tumble in the car so needed to use a simple staple gun to keep the strips in place. Fantastic job and well done to the inventor George de Mestral!
This stuff is just sooo handy 🙂
As some background because remotes are always getting lost,a nd there are so many of them in my house, I tend to Velcro all remotes so that they are stored on the back of the TV or in a handy place. This Velcro is just the right width for me, and sticks really well, so my remotes are now safely back up for my new TV.
I use this whenever I make Roman blinds – excellent for this purpose but I usually add a few staples to the stick-on side that I use to go with it, I use this 2 part version as it allows me to use black on the stick on strip and white on the sew on strip.
Very good tape and sticks well providing strong grip on most ...
Very good tape and sticks well providing strong grip on most things. I used it to put up a mosquito curtain over the door to stop fies coming in the house and it stuck to both parts with no problem and feels very secure on the door frame.
Two rolls of compatible tape which when pushed together adhere as Velcro should and pull apart when you need it to. It seems to stand up to repeated use. The reverse side of each tape has a sticky surface which is covered with a ‘peal-off’ layer of paper (like a sticking plaster). Just press this sticky side to the surface you wish the Velcro to adhere to.
I have used it to attach some strips of concealed LCD lights beneath some kitchen cupboards. It holds the light strips in place and a couple of strips attached to the battery box for the lights holds that up beneath the cupboard too.
Some tips: To get the sticky side of the Velcro to adhere well to the surface you choose, make sure that surface is as clean, smooth and dry as possible. Also try to avoid surfaces which are directly subject to steam or moisture. It is not a good idea to repeatedly boil a kettle directly beneath the site you have chosen. Finally leave the Velcro in place for a little time to “settle” before you attach the other piece to it. A couple of hours should be enough but I left it overnight before I hung my battery pack with the Velcro.
This stuff is brilliant. Used it to make a black out blind that can be fixed onto an existing blinds frame when needed. Also strong enough to hold an extension cable onto the ceiling and a Hive thermostat on the wall. Very happy with the purchase and quality.
The Velcro strength is greater than that of the sticky side. Sometimes the Velcro will be ripped off the surface I stuck it to. It’s difficult to find the right technique to avoid this. I know the surface needs to be smooth and clean. They need to increase the adhesiveness of the sticky side or slightly decrease the grip of the Velcro side. Apart from that I like the product. 🙂

VELCRO
Does what it says on the tin basically, however, doesn’t stick great when used against rubber, as I use it for guitar pedals, and it holds them, but works better when the feet have been removed, as does most velcro
The Velcro matches the dimensions described and comes in a roll with both sides already attached. You can measure out the amount you need and then cut through the roll (and both sides) using normal scissors. Each side has a sticky backing which is protected by removable film, the film is slightly larger than the velcro which makes it really easy to peal off. I’ve found the sticky backing takes ~5 seconds to hold and will still work if you need to pull the velcro off and readjust it’s position once or twice (assuming you didn’t leave it very long in the last position.
I’ve found the 20mm roll brilliant for using with extension leads, as it normally covers the entire back of an extension lead socket. I can’t give an exact weight this velcro will support but it has currently held a 4 gang extension vertically (with 4 plugs and two Energeine remote control sockets) for over a year. It’s also held a Roku and TP Link 702N vertically on wall for the last 9 months.
Perfect for exactly what I needed it for and i'm sure alot of other things!
Perfect for exactly what I needed it for! I have used this to store away my remote controls underneath my desk, and they work an absolute treat!
Sticky tape on the underside is very strong, even after I misplaced the velcro and tried to remove it, it wouldn’t budge! Eventually got it off with a bit of brute force and it left no marks what so ever! 5/5
Better than the rest - but not better value for most uses.
I bought this to help make resources for my classroom and I have to say that this is better quality than any of the no-name Velcro like products I have purchased in the past. Having said that, you are obviously paying the price for the brand name – for that reason I would only recommend this for using in situations where you are either supporting a good amount of weight or where the item will be attached/removed repeatedly over a long amount of time. Other than these situations where the quality is more important than value for money I still would use brandless products.

Quite how I manage to get so enthusiastic about a roll of Velcro, I’ll never know.
However, this is a fantastic product and there is plenty of it. The Velcro itself does what you’d expect it to and does it very well indeed.
The thing that surprised me more than anything though was how incredibly strong the tape/sticky stuff on the back of the Velcro is! I have actually tested it and it holds more than a piece of 3M “Permanent” nail replacement tape does! It is absolutely phenomenal in that respect. It has crossed my mind that you may wish to consider this as a potential disadvantage too – because if you try taking the tape off, for example, a wall, I can assure you it is going to pull everything else off with it! Paint, wallpaper, anything. it really is very, very strong.
Brilliant.

I'm sticking with velcro
This is awesome stuff. I bought it for a specific job (fixing expensive electrical components down without screws) and so paid the extra for the branded product. It fulfilled that job admirably. Since then I’ve used it time and time again, as a quick fix to put up pictures, attach lights to things, semi-permanently fix all sorts of items to walls and ceilings. Today I even used some to make a mobile phone case a snugger fit.
Seriously even if you don’t think you need a roll of this, you do!

Delivery was great, the item arrived just six days after ordering.
I’m using them to hold up a 4 port USB charger, a Bluetooth soundbar + the remote. So far, they’re holding up well. The soundbar is pretty heavy and doesn’t show any signs of falling after being held up for a day and a half and the 4 port USB charger is the same. Even a small amount is strong enough to hold up pretty heavy things and the adhesive seems strong too.

Whilst we’ve been having this really hot weather I decided to open my window a lot wider than usual, so it was time to put up my insect mesh curtain.
The Velcro that originally came with the curtain had already been used up, so I decided to try this for two reasons. Firstly it looked better quality and the second reason was and would last longer.
When the box arrives you get one Velcro Brand Stick On hook and loop tape 20mm x 2.5m, the colour is white.
It’s easy to use. You just cut the strip lengths to the size needed, then placed the Velcro strips, (the hook as the firm call it), on the window frame, (or where ever you want to use it), and then they recommend you leave it for 10 minutes to set.
The other part, (the loop as the firm call it), which I attached to the insect mesh curtain and then place that on the Velcro.
So the insect mesh curtain is hung properly on the window frame and is keeping the insects out.
This Velcro is excellent quality and I’m glad I decided to buy this product. 🙂
This has been useful in so many applications already
This has been useful in so many applications already. Used for sticking foam to walls to stop music bleed, for sticking foam over my camera microphone to stop wind noise and for sticking to canes and fleece around crops…that was less successful because it was very windy but that was my own misjudgement on how strong velcro was and how windy it was! Glad we have this in. Will get more when we’re out just for odd jobs.
so pleased!
After discovering my wall plaster was too thin for small nails, and not wanting to drill in huge ones due to my landlord, I was frustrated at every turn to hang two lightweight canvas pictures. I bought other various sticky hooks and products from our local hardware store and they all came down within a few hours and tool the plaster off the walls. I bought this Velcro tape, put four strips on each canvas and the walks, and let it sit 24 hours just to make sure. Three days later my canvases are hanging and look sturdy. Only thing is I am very sure the Velcro will take the plaster off my wall as it is very thin. But its better than giant heavy duty nails just for two light pictures. So pleased with this product!!

Is white the new black?
The product itself merits 5 stars but unfortunately it wasn’t as decribed and illustrated. Firstly it was described and illustrated as BLACK but what I received was WHITE. Secondly, it arrived loose in an envelope rather than the Velcro package illustrated. Having said that, the colour and packaging don’t really matter to me and the tape was branded Velcro, but if you need black – then be aware you may not get what you are expecting.
Does the job when you follow the instructions :)
Does what it says on the pack. I was a little quick to put a (heavy, expensive) canvas up on the wall and it fell, had I left it long enough sticking to the canvas before attaching it to the wall I’m sure it would have been fine. I have also hung lighter canvases up with no issues.
a fantastic product that does what it says on the box and more!
Due to the nature of my office environment, we are not allowed to fix photos onto the walls. This is the perfect solution! It allows you to hang anything anywhere and remove it with no damage as a result. Fantastic ability to hold heavy weights as well, we used it to hold our keybox up on the wall, which is pretty heavy! All in all, a fantastic product that does what it says on the box and more!
Very handy. Be careful putting them away.
Oh these things are just fantastic. I’ve not used very many of them but they’ve worked a charm. I used them to stick down my speaker volume control to my desk to stop gravity having it’s way with it. The adhesive works well so far. Probably doesn’t work as well on a metal surface.Very handy things to have.
Be careful when you put them back in the box otherwise you run the risk of sticking the velcro together and then when pulling them apart exposing the ahesive to the air.
Actually works.
Previously bought cheap fake stuff, decided to fork out for better quality and have not been disappointed. Use this to Velcro and insect net to my window, I have to do on do it every time I want to open my window, and even now nearly a year on it has still stayed strong to the windowsill and flying it, really would recommend this over cheap crap!

I used this for my final project at Uni and I was very pleased with the result of my work to the help of this velcro! Although I did find when looking at my exhibition that the glue hadn’t stuck to the wall 100%. I don’t know if this was because of the surface or not, but still I was very pleased with my purchase.
Velcro VEL-EC60214 20mm x 2.5m Brand Stick on Tape - White
Not as heavy duty as I was hoping, but then again it wasnt designed to be heavy duty, they have other rolls for that. It work perfectly on flat surfaces. I used it to secure the baby changing mat to the dresser as I wanted to be able to take it off and wash or move etc. Excellent buy! Its fun too.
Great value original brand
I looked at buying some of the non-branded tapes but this genuine Velcro product represented the best value for 2.5m at the current Amazon offer price. It comes in two separate rolls, one roll of the hooked ends and one roll of the fluffy stuff. It rates the strength as 300g per 25mm square and not 500g as the Amazon description states. The backing adhesive is excellent and I repositioned the tape three times before finding the optimum spot on the back of the tv to stick the Fire TV unit I recently bought. I have also used it to stick up an oak framed picture on a plasterboard wall and to secure a phatbox media player in my car boot rather than using screws. There really are so many uses for this stuff that it should become an essential household item like Sellotape, superglue and scissors!

Rear View Mirror, Temporary Fix to Windscreen.
Love this stuff! It sticks like nothing else!
Our car’s rear-view mirror dropped off at a time/day when shops closed. Had journey to make so tried glue for glass then packing tape & then gaffer tape to stick it to the windscreen – each lasted about 15-20 minutes before the mirror dropped off!.
The following day, went to the supermarket & thought I see what was available – spotted the stick-on Velcro amongst the sewing items on the end of one of the aisles & thought I’d give it a try. I was going to use it as it was meant ie fluffy on one surface & loops on the other, but when I found just how well it stuck to the windscreen I just used it like tape.
If you use it like this, tuck a corner under itself so as to provide a starting point for removal. I didn’t & I was afraid I’d scratch or even crack the windscreen before leavering it off!

There are untold uses for this tape. It’s applications are only limited by your imagination & requirements! Everyone should have some lying around!
The glue on the tape outperforms my expectations by miles. It sticks solid, even on a keyed surface (as long as it’s clean & dry) and is good to use almost immediately. For that reason alone, my estimation of the Velcro brand has gone through the roof!
I bought some primarily for fixing peripherals to the lid of my netbook (DVD drive, USB hub, portable HDD, etc) but have since thought up a million other uses!
From the outset the price seems dear and I dare say you could probably find it cheaper elsewhere, though saying that you do get a lot of tape for your money and a little of it goes a long way.
This is one of those products that restores your faith in honest, wholesome quality and in my book ranks up there with gaffer tape, cable ties and leatherman pocket knives as an indispensable & versatile utility sundry. Velcro have outdone themselves! Brilliant!

Good stuff, but...
I wanted to secure items and move them at a later date.
This is good stuff, but first time I did not read the instructions (what can I say).
It did not work, but after reading the instructions (using the right amount and allowing it stick for the time specified) it did the job fine.
Is very strong and very useful and better than the non-branded spots of velcro I bought previously.
The Velcro comes as a strip rolled up with both sides that’s the hooks and fuzz mated together and the adhesive side coverd by a peel away film.
The strip of Velcro while mated together is very stiff by this I mean there is none to very very little movement side to side for example just like a ruler flat on a table there’s no movement if you try to bend it to the side the same with this Velcro even when you inmate the two halfs the Velcro strip has not much movement side to side so if you need to follow a channel which waves from side to side do not use this Velcro.
Now the fuzzy part of the Velcro on the other hand is very supple when it comes to wrapping around an item for example a around a pipe but then the hook part of the Velcro though it does bend well is still quite stiff and will not manage the same radius as the fuzzy side.
Ok well I have bought now many boxes of this Velcro from this seller as for me they fulfill my needs from attaching my Wii receiver to my 1/2″ wide flat screen to attaching my heating thermostat to the wall in different rooms I just simply peel it away from the hall wall and affix it to the bedroom wall at night saves drilling holes every where and having screws sticking out of the walls.
I’ve even put a fuzzy strip on the reverse of each of my remotes and a hook section on my bedside draws so that when I place the remotes down I know where they are and there’s less chance of misplacing them.
There are truly numerous amounts of uses for this space age product around the home and since my first order well over a yer ago the first use I had for this Velcro was to attach my iMac keyboard to the top of a monitor on one of my exercise machines and also I put a small hook section on the key board side and a small fuzzy section on the mouse so when the mouse is not in use I can turn the mouse upside down and attach it to the keyboard now the keyboard has never come unstuck from the edge of the monitor in all the time it has been firmly in place I used just two strips of Velcro to attach it and I’ve never had a problem.
Now the proof of how well the Velcro sticky side bonds to what you place it on is the heating thermastate I have mentioned previously I remove this from one wall in the hallway and place it on to another the bedroom at night and in the morning I reverse this action now I honestly don’t do this every day it depends on the weather but certainly through out the winter it was done every night and I have never ever had any of the strips start to pull away from any of the surfaces they are bonded too be it the wall or the thermastate.
Now I think this is a lot to type about the bennifits of such a simple product that a lot of use use day to day with out thought but I truly think that this is a good product that is deserving of high praise for such a simple thing if you got a good sawing machine it would not be to difficult to saw this on to a fabric either and it’s Velcro strength is well as strong as Velcro 😉
