Works great but hard to remove

These stick on and don't come off. literally! If you want a close to permanent solution for cord organization, this product is definitely for you. Unfortunately I stuck it to my 'wooden' desk from ikea and it stripped the top layer off. It may have been the cheap surface of the ikea desk but i didn't like the residue it left on my glass desk either. I would only recommend this product for surface that you do not plan to remove it from.

Pros
  • A smaller version of the original cable drop for smaller peripheral cords
Cons
  • The adhesive may lose its stickiness over time

So convenient! on my review.

I have these all over my house to keep my cords organized and they are awesome. I especially love using them on my nightstand to keep my phone charger on top. Before, I would constantly unplug my phone to use it and drop the cord to the floor only to roll out of bed to pick it up. This keeps the cord right there on my night stand and is so convenient!

Pros
  • Comes with nine CableDrop Minis to a package in either Black or White
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not be suitable for thicker cords and wires

Wish it stuck better.

I waited awhile after buying so I could leave a review that isn't biased after getting it. Like most people in the reviews say, the cabledrop does seem to have trouble staying attached. Double sided tape did help, but only on the thin cords I use for my phone. I've been trying in vain to get it to stick, with an HDMI cord in it, onto a entertainment center. Even with double sided tape and normal tape on the cord itself so it wouldn't pull the cabledrop off, it didn't work. I have since removed…

Pros
  • Strong adhesive backing
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not work well with cords that move frequently

could use a tweak to design and shore hardness of material

simple and functional. only comment is the material is kind of hard so getting the wires in and out take more work than expected. that may be the point but just a little too hard so i am concerned about damaging the wire as i install it. install is harder then removal, that seems backwards.

Pros
  • Elegant and stylish
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not be suitable for shorter cords

Does the job okay. Need to heat up the .

Does the job okay. Need to heat up the adhesive and clean your mounting surfaces before applying or else these will fall off. Will seem to really stick at first, then when you aren't looking, they seek adventure by cliff diving off your dash board.

Pros
  • Mix and match with different colors for a fun look
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not be strong enough to hold cords with weight

Neat and Tidy - my new review

I have used these before and they are great for keeping cords where you want them. I use them in my vehicle to keep my usb cord to my phone out of the way. I use them around my charging station to keep the cords from draping on the floor and getting broken which can get expensive.

Pros
  • Helps prevent trip hazards from loose cables
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not work well on cords with irregular shapes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice tool in the cable management toolbox

Bought these to attach to the back of our dressers so we could hide the micro-USB cables that we use to charge our phones at night. They are the perfect size for the USB cables. Took off one star because two of them have come off my wife's dresser, so a stronger adhesive would be nice.

Pros
  • Blends in with any decor
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not be suitable for cords that have different thicknesses

Really good product

I live in an nyc aparment and naturally we have very few outlets. There is almost no flexiblity in where you can place devices like routers and modems. I got these so I could do an about 125 foot run of ethernet cable around the baseboard in my apartment so I could have a wired connection to my desktop. These are pricey (which is why I took off a star) but they work perfectly. The rubber material is pretty rigid, the cables don't just pop out. I had used a different product, also with a 3m…

Pros
  • Simple and effective solution for cable organization
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not be suitable for cords that need to be plugged into hard-to-reach places

great little gizmo!

I've been using these on my desk as well as on my night stand to hold telephone(charging) cords in place. I just found another use: I stuck a couple under my kitchen cabinet to hold the electric cords of the toaster and coffee maker up and out of sight. It works!

Pros
  • Versatile and multipurpose
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not work well for cords that need to move in different directions

Great cable keeper for my opinion

These are great to keep cables where you want them. I use them on my Surface Pro, my desktop and my Brother Scan n Cut. They keep cords out of the way and neatly in place.

Pros
  • Comes in a pack of 9 CableDrops
Cons
  • The package is not environmentally friendly, as it includes unnecessary packaging materials

Perfect solution for keeping my cell phone charger off the .

Perfect solution for keeping my cell phone charger off the floor. My bed sits very high and reaching down to get it off the floor all the time was a pain. I attached this to the little white melamine shelf I use as a nightstand. It's small and blends in well. These have a peel off backing and so far it has a strong hold, something I read poor reviews about with other cheaper versions. I have purchased the larger size of these in black for the living room to hold cell, Ipad, laptop charger…

Pros
  • Can be used to create a custom charging station
Cons
  • The adhesive may not stick well to surfaces with a lot of static electricity

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works but adhesive is a little weak after a while

Works as expected. Previous reviews with regards to the sticky tape not holding up are true depending on where you stick these. Definitely need to make sure surface is clean, even then the tape may still not adhere properly. But with some stronger double sided tape that fixed it no problem. I use these on my night stands, desk, and in my truck to keep cable from laying around.

Pros
  • Can be installed on any flat surface
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not be suitable for cords with sharp edges

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good for light wires or cords.

I like these. They keep cords off the floor, making it easier to clean around lamps and accessories. Although they do accommodate coaxial cable, its a tight fit and the adhesive isn't strong enough to hold them in place.

Pros
  • Enables efficient cable routing
Cons
  • The adhesive may not stick well to surfaces that are dusty or dirty

With a little hacking, these get the job well done

Would give them five stars if it wasn't that their self-adhesive backing is not of good quality. It will come off in a matter of 24 to 48 hours.The magic formula I came up with to use these is by removing first their original self-adhesive (make sure to clean well and remove all residue from surface), and then sticking on their back a bit of Scotch Permanent Mounting Tape ( Scotch Permanent Mounting Tape, 1 Inch x 125 Inches ) and voilà! With that, they work like charm and remain in place…

Pros
  • Ideal for small and cramped spaces
Cons
  • The adhesive may not stick well to surfaces that are oily or greasy

Work Great best in my review

Work just as expected, I do wish the backing was a little stickier - not sure if there is a reason behind it not being more sticky (possibly so users can take it off surfaces without any issues). I was also initially putting them on a colder aluminum surface so that may have been part of the problem. They did stick very well, but one I decided to move pulled off much easier than I expected that's all.I still think they work very well and as expected all things considered.

Pros
  • Can be used to create custom cable tracks
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not be suitable for cords that need to be connected to multiple devices

Don't get caught up in hype

Hard to get out of the package! I have used 3 so far and one just won't stick for some reason. I'll let you know if the 4th stays put. Good in many ways but not as great as I was expecting.

Pros
  • Conserves desk space
Cons
  • The adhesive may not stick well to surfaces that are exposed to sunlight

Better Than Sliced Bread

These thingies are fabulous! I use them in multiple sizes to hold all of the cables for my laptop on my office desk and home desk so that it is quick and convenient to connect up my laptop. I use them to hold all charger cables in position so that they don't fall down behind the desk or table. Also great to hold phone charger cables on the side of a night table

Pros
  • Provides a secure and stable hold for cables
Cons
  • The adhesive may not stick well to surfaces that are not level

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great design, could be stickier

Most of them work very well, but I docked a star because one that I used on a finished wood surface just doesn't want to stay attached. All other surfaces stick fine, and the design works great!

Pros
  • Connectors & Adapters
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not work well on textured surfaces

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great easy way to keep cables in place

These are small cable management clips that attach with a sticky pad (included). They work great for smaller cables (e.g. for a phone charger). I used several in the car to manage my phone charger, and so far they're working great. The only downside is the sticky pads are single use.

Pros
  • Reduces stress caused by messy cables
Cons
  • The adhesive may not stick well to surfaces that are exposed to water

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Simple yet great on my review.

Definitely worth getting in this day and age where there are cables falling all over the place. If you have a laptop, this is perfect to keep your laptop cord off the ground and not have to dealwith pulling enough slack for it to not be pulled down.Also useful for using it on your nightstand with your charging cable so that you can unplug and not have it fall to the ground.

Pros
  • Sleek and streamlined
Cons
  • The CableDrop Mini may not work well for cords that need to be hidden from sight
