Review on Rocky Mountain Goods Picture Hangers for Brick, Concrete and Cinder Block - 5 Ct - Easy Install - Extra Strength - Minimal Impact - Holds Heavy Items by Linda Diaz

In our apartment there is a concrete wall in one room, it's just an empty space that we wanted to "fill". Every place I've looked I've been told that to hang something on a concrete wall you need a drill with a masonry bit to install the anchor because the wall is obviously just beyond your attempts at hammer and nail would laugh. So it was a pleasant surprise (at first) when I came across these hard wall hangers that specifically claimed to offer a simpler solution. Bought immediately. I opened the box, climbed up the ladder and sure enough it started boiling. The product claims each hanger will hold 15 pounds, but just to be on the safe side i hammered 3 of them in a row and hung some wire for the photo frame. through a row. One moment, and I mean REALLY IMMEDIATELY, as the frame put pressure on the hangers, they came right out of the wall, along with a few fragments of the concrete itself. These things are junk. I think I should go to Lowe for a single use drill and masonry bit. But at least I know this solution will work. These things are garbage.
