Sticks to everything

I live in an older home, which we're slowly remodeling. In the meantime, I need a good way to hang things on walls without hunting for a stud - I'm pretty sure no one measured anything when they were putting the original parts of this house together. So, I've tried a ton of different things with varying degrees of success. Until this Gorilla mounting tape. It's easy to use, and it holds tight. If my rough and tumble bunch running through the house and bumping into things can't knock things…

Pros
  • It really works! Easy to to use so far so good!
Cons
  • Can be difficult to remove without damaging surfaces

Super sticky, lots of uses

We have found all sorts of uses all over our house for this double-stick tape. We have used it for hanging up small decorative items on our kitchen's tile backsplash, to keep an over-the-door full length mirror from swinging up and crashing every time someone opens or closes the door, to hang Halloween decorations on our brick walls outside, to attach a makeshift dust ruffle to the sides of a box spring, and even to hem some curtains in an old camper.I like this tape, for one reason because I…

Pros
  • this tape is helping hold rugs on step so she doesn't slip. very good adhesive.. sturdy.
Cons
  • Not suitable for use on painted walls

Follow the instructions for the best results

This is an awesome product. My first experience with it. I bought this magnetic knife holder but it required drilling holes in the backsplash tiles. My husband was not comfortable with the idea. Luckily I saw this Gorilla mounting tape in my vine list and requested it right away. This did the job very well. You can see in the picture how well it is holding the heavy magnetic strip and the knives. It's been at least a month and still going strong.I'm one happy customer who would highly recommend

Pros
  • This tape is also incredibly strong and durable, which means that it can hold heavy items securely in place without the risk of them falling or shifting
Cons
  • Can be difficult to apply without stretching or tearing

Happy repeat customer

I got into Gorilla tape years ago when I think they only had the black available. Then they had the thinner transparent ones. Now, they have the same transparent one but it's twice as wide which is better for heavier jobs as it gives more adhesive surface. Some things will come loose even with Gorilla tape and I don't know that it actually lives up the the weight it says it will hold, but what I've discovered is that if this doesn't hold it then nothing short of a nail or screw will hold it…

Pros
  • The clear design of this tape means that it won't yellow or discolor over time, making it suitable for use in areas where aesthetic appeal is important
Cons
  • May not hold up well against repeated exposure to sunlight

Excellent grip on my review.

Gorilla mounting tape feels like cheating. I am the worst picture hanger, and when I use nails it's not pretty. With this tape, I can hang small photos and electronics plus not tear up my walls. I even used it to relocate a set of LED lights that backlit my TV and the cable box. As long as the surface is flat and clean it will hang tight. I would rather use Gorilla mounting tape over nails and a hammer every time and highly recommend it.

Pros
  • Gorilla Tough & Wide Heavy Duty Double Sided Mounting Tape is also resistant to UV rays, ensuring that it won't fade or lose its adhesive properties over time
Cons
  • May not provide a secure enough hold for larger items

Buyer beware in my review

With all the hype of products like this, we were eager to receive this. But we are very disappointed to find it did not work. Would not recommend it to anyone.

Pros
  • With its easy-to-use design, versatile applications, and exceptional strength, the Gorilla Tough & Wide Heavy Duty Double Sided Mounting Tape is a must-have for any homeowner or DIY enthusiast
Cons
  • Can be difficult to reposition or adjust once applied

Always Trusty and Useful for everything!

I tried to use a regular duct tape and a carpet tape to fix a torn beach tent. The tear is vertical. The material of the tent is plastic so it's hard for the tapes to stick. The duct tape and carpet tape only worked for a few hours. I ordered the Gorilla tape as a last resort before tossing out the beach tent. Very pleased to report that Gorilla tape is super sticky and works wonders. It has been almost a week and the Gorilla tape shows no sign of peeling like other tapes.

Pros
  • This tape is designed to work on a variety of surfaces, including glass, metal, plastic, tile, and more, making it extremely versatile
Cons
  • Can be costly compared to other mounting alternatives

An Excellent addition To Any Home, Just In Case!

The Gorilla Tough & Wide Mounting Tape, 1-Pack, Clear, that I recently received, will no doubt come in handy sooner than later! Priced to sell, with A definite buy recommendation from me.

Pros
  • Weatherproof: Industrial strength, heavy duty double sided tape adheres and permanently bonds objects to almost any indoor or outdoor surfaces without breakdown over time
Cons
  • Can lose its grip over time

Good for Zoom background

This tape advertises that it will hold up 24 pounds. Well, I'm not about to try that with anything breakable. But I need to attach posters and tea towels to my Zoom backdrop onto uneven surfaces, like old textured plaster and a vintage door with insets. Regular double-sided tape wasn't doing the trick, things just kept coming loose. This tape works great. I'll probably have to repair the plaster if I take the posters/towels down, but I figured I'd have to anyway.

Pros
  • Office Products
Cons
  • May not adhere well to older surfaces or materials

Superb Mounting Tape

I gave this double sided Gorilla tape a tough test. I mounted a solar light on my stucco wall with the Gorilla tape and it has survived a rainstorm or two and daytime heat and winds. That is what I have tested so far but I am quite impressed.

Pros
  • I used this for assistance on hanging frames and worked like a charm
Cons
  • May not stick well to certain textured surfaces

Sticky stuff: my feedback

I love this type of tape and use it for numerous purposes around the house and in my car. This tape works very well on surfaces that aren't smooth—for example, the top of the dashboard in my Nissan Rogue, on which I used it to mount a holder for my Garmin GPS. I also used it to reinstall a soap/bottle holder in my shower. The fact that this tape sticks so well also makes it difficult to remove, however. Users should be aware that it's best to use it only for purposes where "permanent" adhesion…

Pros
  • The double-sided design of this tape means that it will securely hold items in place without the need for additional adhesive
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use on plastic surfaces

Item arrived but not in original packaging.

Item arrived but not in original packaging. Looks like someone just rewrapped it plastic and taped it to hold together. I'm not sure if it is even the true amount (total length) advertised. I'm a long time ebay customer like many of you. We do not expect or deserve to receive what we order from ebay in this condition. I'm disappointed and regretful of this purchase. Not worth my time to return.

Pros
  • With its extra-wide 2-inch size, this tape is perfect for securing larger items and can even be cut to size to fit specific needs
Cons
  • Can be difficult to remove once applied

Not worth purchasing.

This Gorilla mounting tape is not worth purchasing.It is difficult to work with and will not adhere plastic to plastic. I was attempting to attach small lightweight plastic pots to lattice fencing. Did not work! Waste of money…….

Pros
  • This tape is also waterproof, which means that it won't deteriorate or lose its adhesive properties when exposed to moisture
Cons
  • Can be difficult to remove adhesive residue

Did not last best in my review

I ordered this to use for the toilet paper holder we got that mounts to the wall. It held for less than 24 hours before falling unfortunately. But it did hold other things I have used it for since.

Pros
  • Interlocking Tape & Mounting Products
Cons
  • May be too thick for some applications
