Has anyone ever used the Hercules hooks that they show on T.V.?

A friend of mine bought and used them. He threw them away a few weeks later. The problem was the small hole in the drywall became larger due to the constant weight pulling down on the hook. Don't believe the 150 pounds of weight Billy Mays tries to sell you.





Additional problems were the hooks are not able to go into plaster walls unless you drill a small hole. Then you might as well use nails.


The second problem is the hooks cannot go into studs. If you need to hang something heavy, say 150 pounds of weights, then you'd want to use a stud to support the weight.


Your best bet would be to use the hooks at a home improvement store (Lowes, etc.) to hang pictures and small shelves. But if Billy Mayes offers some Kaboom or Oxy Clean then maybe I'd buy the Hercules Hooks.

yea. don't hold much weight and are very thin.
