The Alu Dibond and acrylic glass suspension from PEARWAY left a very good impression in our test. Due to the enormously strong adhesive surface of the 3M brand, all pictures can be hung up without hesitation and have a secure hold. Except for one or the other tool, such as a folding rule or a drill (for the 8×6 cm variant), all the required components are included in the set. The suspension disappears completely behind the picture/mirror and is there invisible. It would have been desirable if there had been more cleaning pads in the set and if they hadn't dried out so quickly. In addition, the Styrofoam spacers do not meet the highest quality standards. All in all a top product!
Benefits
✅ Strong hold
✅ Easy to assemble
