I have been unable to get it to adhere to my tile wall for more then a few minutes before it falls down. Has anyone been able to do this successfully?

The possibility of this problem could be 1. the surface not VERY clean. 2. the tile surface isn't smooth.

i have it attached to a mirror and it has stayed up. did u clean the tile with rubbing alcohol first? GL

Did you follow the instructions to turn the base? That locks the suction cup in place. Mine is on my mirror and is very sturdy.

The board that comes with it is very substantial. It is a traditional way of hanging certain heavy things but I forget the name of the process. I had a lighter mantle with a smaller board. It never fell down or became loose. Just find studs and make sure you secure the board well. In our particular case, I had it inlaid in tile-the tile completely surrounded it and went from floor to ceiling. It will never be changed. I love it. If you want a picture, I will send you one. Let me know how to contact you. But really, the one online is little different than the one I would send you.

I didn't have it up long enough to rust, as it keep falling off the tile, crashing everything into the tub- even after it was construction cemented. Good luck.

I applied it to my classroom's cinderblock walls, which are sort of porous. I was surprised how well it continues to stick. Posters are constantly falling down in my room no matter what I use to adhere them because of the style of the walls and the humidity in my classrroom. The map has not "unstuck" once. I would think that you would be fine...

I screwed mines into the wall and it stayed up, I still don't have any problems to this day. I don't think sticky tape will work for the long run.

The one I purchased did not stick very well to sand texture. It was tacky enough to stick initially but over the course of a few hours it would sag and fall off the wall.

I cannot get mine to stick either. I have granite counter tops and I put a bit of water on the suction cups to help create a seal, but it didn't help at all. I also tried using it on my dining room table. The suction cups refuse to adhere, no matter how much pressure I apply. I had to have my husband hold the spiralizer down for me in order to be able to use it at all. Kind of frustrating to know I might not ever be able to use it without help and I'm considering sending it back just because of this issue. I sent an inquiry to Brieftons. We'll see what they say.

I've had one up for over a year! But we have a second, and I can't get it to stay up at all. We also have tile.

Sure would. The big question is: would it release from ceramic tile? I'm guessing probably, but I haven't laid it down there to test. (I know that after 24 hours on a wood floor, it was _really_ stuck on.)

Yes, mine falls off as well. The suction cup has curled up around the edges and will not adhere well to our granite shower walls. It is very frustrating to hear a crash in the middle of the night. The squeegee does a great job, however, I need to find an alternative to this suction cup!

I have had mine now for about a year and we live in Southern California. The only time it went off was when it fell off the wall the first night I put it up. That will never happen again I used glue this time.

I ended up sticking it to a mirror in my daughters room because I couldn't get it to stick on the wall. I bought several different wall stickers and only 1 worked the rest wouldnt stick~It seems the larger stickers work best.

No, at least not for long or well. I would use some silicone adhesive or better yet get a small tub of tile mastic (adhesive) at the hardware store.

Hi,I have tiles but it seems it would also work on painted walls. It fits very snug and has not slipped at all. I had to throw away my previous one because it would fall. I'm not 100% sure but really happy with this one and it looks really nice for the price.

I am thinking about glueing the picture part and then once it dries, flip the puzzle overr and apply the peel & stick on the back. I have not tried this method for I am still working on a 1,000 puzzle. Now I have a question of how to get the puzzle picture to stay up on the wall, it keeps falling off. I used mounting tape. it does not work very well.

Ours stuck on perfectly and has not come down. Our tiles are very smooth and even, so I think that if you aren't sticking it to an even or smooth surface, it might not work. I would suggest trying some Command double sided waterproof strips and using those to get it to stay up. Here is a pic of the strips I'm talking about ...http://multimedia.3m.com/mws/mediawebserver?mwsId=SSSSSufSevTsZxtUO8_GlxmGevUqevTSevTSevTSeSSSSSS--

while I still would recommend drilling a small hole and using an anchor in the tile for best results... You can use either two sided tape or good apoxy glue like gorilla glue
