Should I get the standard or xl? Pros and cons of the sizes!? Do you think I could mount this to the wall with command "Velcro"strips for heavy items?

Too heavy for Velcro. This thing is legit. Real metal spring loaded rim. The standard size is plenty for indoor use

Would not recommend the velcro strips esp. if there is gonna be dunkin goin on (which is kinda the point of the "break away rim") no sort of 3m strips will hold. I have the XL which will put in our basement wall hung on 2x4's using the attatched door hanger on the hoop itself.

i don't know the difference between the standard and the xl.but i really don't think you could play basketball with this hoop velcroed on the wall.

Hi Anne. Get a little smaller one. It's a little more bulky because of the white tubing. You don't want squish it against the wall because the blue tarp will start to rip and tear with the friction against the wall. and then if you buy a cover for it you won't be able to put it on.

As long as you hang it at the right height, standard is fine. Same with width...I have a West Elm curtain that is 72"x74" (had to hang mine a bit higher because of the extra 2") and it fits great.

Very heavy because its a plasma. I have a 65" and IM a big strong guy and I almost could not get it off the ground! Amazing because its so thin too! I,ve seen wall mounts for 80" TV's now at Costco now so just switch out your wall mount you should be ok :)

Hi, I will be honest the wall mount is cute but it does seem a bit smaller than the actual picture. I have a catalog rolled up right now in mine and it is already full. Flat enevelopes you could fit a lot but if there were several enevlopes with "bulky" material I do not think you would fit many. I am satified with mine though because I just use it for my bills so, so far it is working for my needs. Hopefully this helps answer your question! Thanks

if you really truly trust command strips with whatever you plan to hang on these...there are two screws in each end to secure to the wall... i rather think the screws would do less damage to your wall should you want to take it down and move it for any reason... my ONLY experience with command strips was disastrous to the wall (and i can't imagine it looking good to have that under the base pieces?)... and since only the rim would be afixed to the command strips... i recommend the screws... but you could always try it ... and after the disaster THEN you could use the screws :o) good luck!!!

They both change. I've got a 32" waist...and used to have a large. It was OK, but when I really cinched it up? I had about 3 inches of velcro BEYOND the length of the adhesion strip. So now I have a medium, and it's perfect.You can cinch this thing up like a corset...it's so good that way. I love it!!! Buy the smallest one you can.

It matters little the exact size, it will be too small. It includes two velcro extension that are virtually useless. I went to a Home Depot ad found the perfect item, a fairly long velcro strap (the fabric part) with two hook ends. No twisting needed either, the hooks are on the proper side. I couldn't believe it, my shopping was over in five minutes. Also, the strap is about two or so inches (twice that of the anemic thing that comes with the unit. Just cut the strap in the middle to make two (cut across the width, not the length) and you are done, with probably lots of strap to spare.

This seems to smaller than the standard six.....I kinda like that too. I would recommend this guy. Your question made me unwrap this thing, and I'm sorry I didn't use it yet.The best ones however seem to be the cheapies that I have all over the house at 10 or so for 5 bucks from China.!!!

Yes! i went to Home Depot and got a Roll of Velcro. It's like 2 inches wide and a number of feet long. Just cut to the length you need. It's great for a number of things. My brother used Velcro to mount small speakers to the side of his HDTV in the Bedroom and it works good. I use Velcro to mount my Mattress Heat pad remote to the bed where it's easy to see and get to. I have my Dad's AppleTV Velcro to the back of his HDTV. I have my AppleTV and Roku and a couple other things Velcro to the back of my dresser in my Bedroom as that was a better place for it all for a few reasons. I got these brackets for a ROKU and a AppleTV and never used them. Velcro works so much better and very useful for a number of projects and best of all, cheaper.

Good morning T. Laurent! Recently, we purchased the TLC 32" TCL L32HDF11TA 32-Inch 720p 60 Hz LCD HDTV with 2-Year Warranty, Black and mounted it on a wall, but to save you from some of the headaches we had I thought I'd share the following. First, here is the wall mount we purchased: VideoSecu Tilt TV Wall Mount bracket for Most 32"- 55" LED LCD Plasma Flat Screen TV, MF607B 1QH This wall mount comes with a good variety of bolts 'n such for a variety of different televisions, however, none of them will fit into the back of the TCL, nor is there anything in TCL's single-sheet instructions informing you of what size of screws are needed. We first bought size 8 and 6 screws in both 3/4" and 1/2" as we were unsure what would work. The size 8 seemed to fit a bit better, however, while testing if it would go in okay, the screw snapped off flush! Oh no~!! It took a lot of time carefully drilling that little sucker out without messing up the threading. In any event, we finally got it out. (The size 6 was too small in diameter and would not grip the threading at all.) We finally ran into a very knowledgeable man at the hardware store who informed us that we probably needed a metric size screw, being the set is manufactured in China. He explained the difference in the pitch of the threading and so on. We no longer have the sales receipt from the metric screws we purchased, but I have an extra screw and it measures 1" long and is between the American size 6 and 8. I'm sure if you take this info to your hardware store, you'll find what you need, but you will definitely need metric. Also, we mounted this wall mount into a concrete wall, so we purchased extra lag bolts and anchors (that the bolts fit into once the hole is drilled) just to be sure it would stay put. We used 8 in all, which is probably overkill, but better safe than sorry, and it's rock solid. I hope this helps and I'm sure you'll love this TCL television. We love ours! God bless you and yours! Ellexis...

I don't think it matters, but if money is no issue, I'd probably get the larger ones just to be safe. Be sure to move the head of the bed out from against the wall. And if the bed has supports, put traps under the supports, too.

Yeah for the XL one. If your getting these for one time use and then tossing them, sure buy something cheaper. But for heavy use in a school setting or an adult flag football league this is the one you want to get! They are tough and worth the coin.

Measure the width of where you would want it mounted to see if it'll fit. Everything else is adjustable. As for the quality, it's pretty good! It's not the thickest material around but it's proven to be very tough in the year I've used it. It comes with everything you need to mount it too. I'd buy it again....

Command sells a hook/strip that is rated for wet areas--it's a different kind of strip than what you'd use on a wall. Amazon sells it and so do some of the big box stores; however it is very hard to find in the stores so you may be better off getting it directly from Amazon. It's not rated for as much weight as this jumbo hoook, but we've had no problems using it to hang up the rubber tub mat to dry. We even bought extra strips and are using four of them to hang up another item in the shower/tub. That item had more surface area so more room for the four strips...

We were able to use the larger size Command Strips but I would only recommend this when the base will be sitting horizontally. I don't know if the strips will be albe to hold the light vertically (like attached to the wall).
