Anybody used these? They seem kind of expensive, but I have a bunch of frames to hang and this seems like an easier way! Do they work, are they a PITA to use?

I love them use them all over,the good thing about these hooks is when you take them down you can use it somewhere else.You can just buy the sticky pads that go on the back no need to buy new hooks:-)
LOVE these hooks! I have them all over my house, even have one on my bathroom door to hold my big, fluffy bath robe.
They work so well and even though they have weight restrictions on the package, I have hung mirrors and much heavier items on them and never had a problem! Totally recommend!
just take it REALLY slow when pulling on the tape to remove from wall.. or you may have more trouble on your hands.. ie damaged drywall.
I use them all the time, but if you're going to hang picture frames, use them if you're not worried they'll fall to the floor. In other words, don't hang frames you think are valuable. Way back, I wrote to 3M and asked the question about using the biggest hook to hank a valuable painting and it wasn't recommended.
My experience has been that the hook itself is the part that breaks, while the adhesive on the wall stays put.
Zonny, if you want to hang something with minimal damage, these hooks work well too. They're barely noticeable when you remove them. (It's a good idea to put tape down first in a cross pattern first.)
I have used them and they work really well. I agree with MrsSunshine, you need to take the adhesive off very slowly if you ever want to take these down.
I have seen them, from time to time, at Dollarama for $2-3. Luck of the draw if you find them.
