I used mine once and it fell apart when I took it out of the wall. Three clips fell out. Unsure how to reassemble. Doesn't work without clips insid.

As I mentioned in my review, this is not a well built adapter. However, it's cheap. Just buy another one.

Really don't understand question. She said three clips fell out. Where were these clips when she plugged it in. My unit is all one piece, so I'm not sure what fell out.

mine did not do so well over a short time. The right side has completely collapsed and at this time I have it leaning against the back wall to hold it up. There was no weight placed on the bottom of the closet and it needs to be thrown out but I have to find a more substancial unit to replace it before I can get rid of it. Mine has no coats or sweaters, just dresses. Also, the plastic on just the front has ripped. Not suggested for consistent use. I do not wear the dresses often so I do not use it on a daily or weekly basis.

It will only happen if you don't have it secured properly! Mine fell off the first time I used it! So I took an extra second and secured it properly and it hasn't happened again. I use it about once a week and absolutely love it!!

I had no problem with mine. The two parts are nested together but there's a hole in the base of each, so using these holes I gripped the base of one with my left hand and used my right hand to grip the base of the other and pulled. I could feel some resistance but they slipped apart fairly easily and I was good to go!

I haven't had that problem, althought mine has come apart several times. I push the part into the upper piece and turn it in the direction shown by the arrow on the lower part to lock it. I'd offer the suggestion to firmly seat the parts together and then twist the two pieces in the direction shown by the arrows. That's all I can offer.

Should - But the spring on one of my two clips had moved out of position, and I had to figure out how it was supposed to be affixed to the unit, to keep the proper tension against the drywall. Once I got that worked out, the design proved to have sufficient gripping power to support the weight of the unit. Hope you don't have to go through that experience to get things working right.

If mine broke, I would just use a binder clip from the office. Or, call the manufacturer in Utah!

It fits well but I would not recommend buying it at all. I have bought 3 clips and they have all broken. Save your money.

Slide the other clip under the one you want to attach ( or any other firm object) and push . Poorest design I've ever seen . It will fall off when you don't want it to. If you want to detach it, it's impossible.

I used the screws that came with it, and pulled it out of the wall within 24 hours. By being a klutz and tripping against it! Replace the 1" screws with 1.5" and you'll be happy.

Ours broke too--we just did without. I wonder though if you contact Griffin--if they would send you a replacement clip. We didn't do that--we just kept looking online for replacements then just gave up and forgot about it.

Mine literally fell apart into about 3 pieces after one use. Plugged it in once, and didn't even unplug it before it fell apart.

I think its a design flaw, my mount finally got to the point where it literally would not stay locked in anymore and from all the shaking it cracked where the screws from the bottom anchored into the top, I now have one of the most expensive, cutting edge detectors on the market held together with packing tape. It's pretty ridiculous given what I paid but, it still works.

Mine falls off so easily that I am lucky I keep it in my pocket. Also, I don't get to use it much because the batteries are always dead. The slightest pressure turns it on, so you can't keep it tight enough to stay together. It's not much use held together with tape. I am going to try the Energizer Micro.

No. The clips on this unit have held up thus far. I did have an older unit where I lost a clip on two of the trays. I would contact Plano customer service if more than a couple of clips have failed. I think that temperature variations in garages or outdoor enclosures can contribute to clip failures.

Do not use the command strips it comes with! Mine fell off the wall less then 12 hours after I put it up and cracked the bag holder. So disappointing. And I have to wait on approval to exchange it, which is even more frustrating.
