It's terrible. I've used them everywhere and they just don't hold up

I hate it. I hate, hate, hate these useless things. I have applied them to a variety of surfaces throughout the house and every time they have NOT worked in every situation. No joke. The velcro is actually fine, but the adhesive is so weak that it will peel off any surface you attach it to. Mandatory every time. Sometimes they can work A LOT (which is rare). But in the end they all fail. I've tried them on wood, drywall, masonite, aluminum and plastic. The closest I got was aluminum, but don't worry if that aluminum heats up in any way. The glue will not work if attached to anything warmer than room temperature. Even what stuck first I go back to separate and the velcro is MUCH stronger than the glue and just peels it off the glue. Pop up. I could just get sticky squares if I wanted, but I wanted to be able to put things on and off as needed. Before you start wondering if I'm doing it right, I've tried so many finishes and combinations. I even went so far as to glue rows of such dots onto the surface. For example, I have a computer workstation and my monitors have a power supply that I want to get out of the way, so I hooked up 12 (TWELVE!) Masonite Surfaces. And yes, I wiped the area clean beforehand and let it dry completely. It took 24 hours for every point on these glue dots to fail. All twelve. Some stayed in the pack and some stayed on the table, in any case all 12 were out of order even sharing the load. Bottom line, they're useless even for the price. Don't buy them. Is always. Stay away. I've had other brands and had to stick with them (I've since corrected my mistake) but stay away from this brand. Period. Even at such a low price, it's a waste of money. Although to be honest these things seem to slip off the roll very easily and stick tightly to anything you do NOT want to wear them on like clothes and carpet. These things are now enjoying their nice new homes in the garbage and rotting, I think, in the landfill where they are in a more suitable environment. What a product defect.
