Lynnette Lewellyn, Boonville IN 12-31-09 I saw your product on the DIY Network show Bathtastic. I ordered it right away and used it to remove textured flocked wallpaper from our family room- it had been on for 20 years, but it came off in just a few hours and the cost is minimal compared to hiring someone to do it! I only wish I had discovered it years agao before I paid those professionals several thousand dollars to remove the wallpaper from several other rooms over the years. I used your product and did it with none of the wall damage left by "the professionals." My husband was so happy not to have to skim-coat the whole room before repainting! Thanks for a GREAT product!

Linda Soares, Pikessville MD 12-22-09 All I can say is WOW!!!!!!! This product is the best thing that ever came out. I tell all my friends about it or anyone i see in the store looking for wallpaper removal products. I had a company give me and estimate to remove wallpaper from one room into the foia hallway. They estimated a wopping $2400.00 so I decided to surf the Net to see if there was a way to do it myself. I stumbled upon this product and since it was a money back guarrentee I bought it. I am now on my third order I am doing the whole house. Thank you for saving me thousands of dollars.

Lynne Crisman, Whitman MA 12-16-09 As it turns out, I will have enough to finish the room and since it's my only room with wallpaper that will do it for me for a while. While I have your ear... this system is SUPER. I used to have several rooms with wall paper in years gone by and stripping them was an agony. This job has been soooo much easier, in spite of the fact that 3 walls had 2 layers of paper and one wall had three layers. The little perfing tool was the hardest part of the whole job and that wasn't awful. I did do the 3 layer wall in 2 stages because I was pressed for time and it was quicker to do that with 2 half hour soakings than it was to do the 3 at once.

Robbin Kimmel, Eddison NJ 11-16-09 I have tried many different ways to remove wallpaper from white vinegar with hot water, fabric softener, good old muscle strength, and nothing worked. Never, have I seen a product work as wonderful as SimpleStrip. I had started the removal process single handed taking down bathroom wallpaper @ 12:00pm by 3:00pm I was already priming the walls, it was just that easy.

A few tips to pass on to the next person who uses SimpleStrip. 1. After removal of the wallpaper, you will have to remove excess glue, just spray the solution on to the wall, scrape off and use one of the sheets to wash down the wall. 2. Have extra towels around, the wetter the wall the easier it is to remove. The wallpaper was 25 years old, I couldn't believe it, NO wall damage, sheetrock was still intact. The most important thing: For those of you who are Asthmatic like myself, don’t worry there is no smell, no harsh chemicals you will be able to breathe just fine. SO go now and purchase this product. Before finding SimpleStrip I spent $2000 dollars to remove 3 rooms, I now know I was crazy. This investment is worth the money. I brought one kit, a gallon of paint $100. Thank you for such a great product. Next is the bedroom.

Debra Young, Humble TX 09-26-09I LOVE this product!!! Amazing how this product peels the wallpaper right off of the walls. I had two layers of wallpaper and each layer had been painted over. I peeled the first layer and reapplied the strips. The bottom layer had been applied to unprimed sheetrock and it peeled away so smoothly!! Love it, Love it, and love it!!! I no longer fear wall paper removal, which is good since I have three more rooms with painted over wallpaper to remove.

Laura Legger, Haughton LA 09-20-09SimpleStrip is amazing. I wasted hours using another product. I used SimpleStrip and removed two rooms of wall border in just an hour.

Richard Guldin, Thomasville GA 09-15-09 My wife and I bought the complete kit and used it on 2 bath rooms and 2 powder rooms. Simply follow the directions and nothing and I mean nothing could have be easier to do. Thank you WalkWik for a great product.

Mary-Ellen Madigan, Erie PA 07-07-09 I am truly amazed with this product. I just finished stripping an entire room in less than an hour! The solution isn't harsh, doesn't smell and is so easy to use.

Don Williams, Fort Wayne IN 07-02-09 I received the wallpaper removal system yesterday. I used it today to remove wallpaper in a bedroom. It took me less then 4 hours working by myself. Your product worked exactly as stated and per the video that I watched. The wallpaper peeled off in full sheets with zero damage to the walls. I will be recommending this product to everyone. The time and work it saved me was well worth the cost. Thanks again Don

Joe Hassell, Mullica Hill NJ 04-22-09 I've tried other products, but the results were no so good. What a fantastic product - the wallpaper came off like a band-aid - but without the pain, and no damage to the original dry wall. I used the Stripable/Peelable Wallpaper Removal Kit. After manually removing the top vinyl layer, I simply sprayed the remaining paper backing with "EZ-Strip". My family and I stood with our mouths open as the 15 year old wallpaper peeled off the walls. I can't say enough about how easy it was to use your product. It more then met my expectations. Thank you.

Loretta Sellers, Sebree KY 04-19-09 Just wanted you to know I am very happy with SimpleStrip ! My bedroom was completely covered with wallpaper..It only took me one day to remove all of it..and best of all , no fighting with the husband! It works just like the video says it will.. Thanks again!

Judy Thompson, Brownsburg IN 04-14-09 I had border in my kitchen that would not budge no matter what I tried. I was very hesitant to purchase SimpleStrip (after buying other wall paper removal products at the store) but the money back guarantee reassured my decision. After trying several methods to remove the border my husband was convinced nothing was going to work and wanted to put up crown molding to hide the border. He said there was no way SimpleStrip would work and I was just wasting more money on this project. Guess what, IT WORKED. We are so grateful for SimpleStrip. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Judy Thompson

Len Guyton, Maumelle AR 04-02-09 Several months ago I start trying to remove wallpaper in my kitchen and found that the walls had not been sized. I was encouraged to use a steamer, but found that when peeling the wallpaper the sheet rock paper came off with it! to make things worse the sheet rock paper came off in varying layers. What a nightmare it was! I stopped completely and did not return to the project until today. During the mean time I began looking for answer on the internet. Your site addressed the issue of removing paper from walls that had not been sized. I decided to try your product,the SimpleStrip Power Kit. Your product is too cool! I will never again use anything else to remove wallpaper. Do you sell stock in your company? Thanks, Len Guyton

Bev Jarvis, Boise ID 24-03-09 I just removed wallpaper from two bathrooms using your product. I was dreading the entire process as I have tried all the other usual methods out there. I LOVE your product. It took only a day and the paper came right down...no big production at all. I will tell my friends about SimpleStrip. Thanks, Bev Jarvis

Peggy Munkres, Elk City OK 24-02-09 I had ordered your product after my daughter was pleased with the results. I hired some professionals to strip the paper from the walls of my master bathroom which is very large. After 4 hours they were just amazed that the paper came off so easily. It is wonderful and is all it claims to be. Thanks so much.

Debbie Duncan, Decatur AL 11-21-08 I had 20 year old vinyl wallpaper that I had tried every known trick out there to remove (steamer everything!) all those remedies took hours to remove then left the sheetrock needing repair. I was ready to just call someone to replace the sheetrock before I tackled another room of this paper. Before I did that though I decided to surf the internet for any other remedies I had not tried and came upon your website, for the price I decided to try it before I started tearing out walls, so I sprayed the product on the paper left on the wall after you remove the vinyl and waiting thinking this is not going to work either so I waited a couple of minutes then used the scraper and I was AMAZED this took that paper off like it was just put up left NO marks in my sheetrock!!!!! I was so excited I stopped and called all my friends to tell them about it. Now I can't wait to tackle the other rooms!!!! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product to anyone out there trying to remove wallpaper.

Juliette Misar, Minneapolis MN 10-28-08 In a day and a half, a 55 and 75 year old stripped 3 bedrooms, a bathroom [4 walls] and a kitchen [4 walls]. We were amazed and loved the ease of removing the wallpaper. It's the ONLY way to go! Lovin' it! Thank you!

Stephanie Wilking, York PA 09-12-08 We removed paper in one hour in the Dining Room on 3 walls. The last wall had paper that was painted and then papered over again, so it took a little longer but I cannot imagine any faster way. I have used a steamer before and this is wonderful. I just did our Living room by myself 20 X20 room 10 ft. ceilings every wall was done. It took me a while just because of the height. I cannot imagine ever taking down paper without this product. I cannot wait to tackle the hall and powder room. This does no damage to the walls like a steamer can create.

Martha Gish, Hagerstown, MD 09-01-08 Never had I had so much trouble removing wallpaper until this room...and I had put it up! Don't know what happened, except it was 20 years old, but I started checking online for tips and came across your product. I liked what I read, ordered, and received it in a few days. The wallpaper came right off, just like advertised. My husband kept laughing at me because I was so excited. Believe me, everyone I know, will know about this product!!! Thank you!!

Melanie Mixon. Columbia, SC 07-29-08 We recently purchased a house with wallpaper in 2 bathrooms and the kitchen. We soon realized that the drywall had not been primed before the wallpaper was put up. I tried every removal product at the local stores and at-home methods and none of them worked. It tore the paper on the drywall in so many places we had to do a faux finish to hide it all. I found your product online and gave it a shot in the other bathroom. I was so pleased when I pulled the first strip of wallpaper off with little to no tearing. Thank you from all the do-it-yourselfers for such a great product.

Windy Davis. Indianapolis, IN 07-06-08 I just completed using SimpleStrip to remove wallpaper from my bathroom. I was dreading this task to say the least! WOW! Using the SimpleStrip method was so easy and the wallpaper came off without any problem! I would recommend the SimpleStrip system to anyone! Thanks for the great product!

Marilyn Sheleheda. Ambridge, PA 06-20-08 I LOVE YOUR PRODUCT!! Short little synopsis….I wanted to redo my 12 year old wall papered kitchen, the top vinyl coat came off like a dream, however I was left with the backing/paste. I tried everything—after scoring…then the “professional strength” remover from Sherwin Williams, used it diluted and FULL STRENGTH –nothing (BTW this guy told me I have no other choice other than to sand). I tried my little “Shark” steamer – nothing. I tried my steam iron – nothing. Someone loaned me a “professional” wall paper steamer – sort of worked but too much trouble and messy as hell. So I settled with the fact that I was going to sand and certainly NOT going to re-wall paper! I received a email from a friend claiming that your product worked (yes, I complained to everyone) – I thought what do I have to lose – it’s guaranteed…so I received the product yesterday & I tried a small area about 3 x 3 last night and VIOLA – IT WAS GREAT….I can’t wait to finish the project this weekend. Thanks. I will pass this advice to everyone ---INCLUDING SHERWIN WILLIAMS! Happy – Happy - Happy!!!

Phyllis Teter. Elkins, WV 06-18-08 Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! After purchasing our home last year, I didn't think removing the wallpaper border from my daughter's room would be any big deal. Well, I was WRONG! I tried everything imaginable with no success. Then a friend read about SimpleStrip in the home section of our local paper. It is absolutely wonderful. Thanks again!


Ed Feifert. Livermore, CA 06-18-08 I just used your product on wallpaper that was installed in 1953. Your product worked great. I was expecting a nightmare and the job went smooth as silk. Thank you very much!


Cristine Hulse. Bloomington, MN 04-14-08 I recently ordered the SimpleStrip wallpaper removal product and can I just say how absolutely FANTASTIC this product is? It is amazing and so easy to use. It made what could have been an arduous process done and over with in less than 2 hours! Thank you SimpleStrip! I LOVE YOUR PRODUCT and will sing it's praises to anyone who needs to remove wallpaper!!!

Sharon Shaw. Alexandria, KY 03-25-08 Since moving to my current home three years ago, I have dreaded the inevitable wallpaper removal. Yesterday I got my SimpleStrip package at 3pm. By 7pm, I had finished with the wallpaper stripping in one room! This amazing product works EXACTLY as advertised. It is a simple idea with fantastic results. The claims are not exaggerated one bit! Thanks for making an otherwise horrible painstaking job be fast and pleasurable! I will use this product any time I need to remove wallpaper and recommend it to EVERYONE!

Ann Marie French. Allamuchy, NJ 02-19-08 THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Your product works miracles. We had tried several other methods and estimated we would need about 20 hours to take the paper off. We did the room in under six!! It was almost fun. I will order more product soon as my daughter needs to do a big room in her home also.

Terry Allison. Elmira, NY 01-29-08 I just wanted to tell you how pleased I was with your product. It worked like a charm, it was just as easy as your literature said it would be. Thanks so much!

Joyce Gruber. 12-12-07 I tried DIF the wallpaper border didn't budge. We had an estimate for $400 to remove the border since our bathroom is large. I tried your product. It is so great . I let the strips remain on the wall for several hours ( keeping them wet) the old paper and glue just scraped right off. Everyone should know about your great product. Thank you!!!!!!


Ward Vanderberg. 11-10-07 I'm having my first experience with the SimpleStrip wallpaper removal system. I can honestly say that this is the first ANYTHING I've ever used that works as advertised. It is amazing! I had stripped another room in the house the "old" way and it took days and an incredible amount of work. After just a couple of hours using this system, most of which is spent waiting for the solution to do its thing, and spraying the SimpleStrip sheets occasionally, I'm nearly finished with the room. Thank you - this is an amazing product and I won't hesitate to recommend it to anyone!


Tracey Rubino. 08-11-07 You just saved me $240! A contractor had quoted me $300 to remove wallpaper. I couldn't see spending all that money so I invested $60 in your product and figured if it didn't work, I would return it. I am so happy I stumbled upon your website. This is the first do-it-yourself project that I have tackled and I tackled it with my 5 year old son who helped me spray the walls. It was so easy that I am even contemplating painting the room myself! Thanks so much! I will surely recommend this product to anyone who needs to remove wallpaper including the contractor!


Elizabeth Holley. Auburn, GA 08-08-07 Gentlemen: Your product is absolutely great! It actually turned a once tedious job into a fun one. Thank you. I will tell all my friends about it.


Gloria Ino. Goleta, CA 07-20-07 I love SimpleStrip! I have nine different patterns of wallpaper in my four bedroom house. I was dreading the removal process and even considered hiring someone to remove the wallpaper for me. I had visions of my children wanting to "help" me by getting their hands into the chemical solvents or playing with the chemical soaked wallpaper as I peeled it off the wall. I found SimpleStrip online and ordered it immediately. So far, I've stripped my foyer, hallway, and dining room in 8 hours. My three year old scores the paper and my five year old uses a dry paint roller to remove the air bubbles. We strip the wallpaper off together; it comes off in complete panels! No mess, drips, or toxic chemicals. My daughter is so excited to finally get her room painted. I love that this project hasn't eaten away at the precious time I have with my kids. My kids and I work on the wallpaper for a couple of hours a day, and then spend the rest of our summer vacation swimming or going to the zoo. I will definitely recommend this product to anyone!


Rob Kaylis. Philadelphia, PA 06-23-07 Wow! Wow! Wow! That is the only description I can say for this product. I have stripped two of my previous homes of the old horrible wallpaper in my life and it was weeks of spray, wait, scrape, spray, wait, scrape etc…It was a horrible task that I never wanted to do. Well, we just bought a new home, saw your product on DIY network and bought the complete package. How amazing it is! The wallpaper came off just like it did on tv….plain simple strips, right off. Unbelievable. We were hoping to have 2 rooms done in 2 weeks before we move in. Now, we’ll be able to have the entire house done in less than a week. Great great product. Thank you. Rob Kayris.


Hilda Day. Lake Charles, LA 05-28-07 Hello, I am an interior designer and faux finisher. I HATE to remove wall paper and just purchased you system to see if it would help. I love it. It works wonders and saved me tons of time on my last job. Many thanks for such a great product.


Irene Goslaw. Fuquay-Varina, NC 05-23-07 Just wanted to say THANKS for the SimpleStrip…..It was absolutely fantastic……I will recommend to anyone who wants to remove wallpaper!!!! Irene Goslaw


Janice Hanlon. Martinez, CA 04-12-07 Thank you , Thank you. We recently bought a home that had wall paper borders on every wall. Did I say every wall? I had heard horror stories about removing it with "gloppy" solutions and scraping and scraping and scraping. I kept thinking this is 2007 and there had to be something better so, I hit the internet and found SimpleStrip. At first glance it looked too good to be true; wall paper falling off in sheets? I read through all the instructions, then I read all the testimonials and decided to give it a try. I figured if it didn't work I would be no worse off but if it did work, that would be great news. We followed the directions, scoring, then soaking and applying the sheets, misting the sheets and waiting about 20-30 minutes. We completed three bedrooms in about 2 hours. The borders really did come off in full strips. Wow, we were cheering. Then, the paper in the hallway gave us a challenge. It was heavier and the solution had a hard time getting behind it to work. I struggled with one wall. It came off but there was some paper left to pull off with my fingers, just not like the bedrooms. So, I went back to the directions. They said if it doesn't work try a stronger solution and wait longer. The thing that I remembered in the directions was "Be patient, let SimpleStrip do the work". So we decided to score this paper a little more than we did in the bedroom, increase the solution mix ( 3-4 oz to 1 gal vs. 1 to 1) and after testing we found waiting 1 1/2 hours was the magic number. We also learned that with this paper keeping the SimpleStrip sheets wet with the sprayer (not soppy but wet) was key. We went off to work on something else and in 1 1/2 hours, just like the bedrooms, this heavier paper pulled off in full strips. Oh by the way, after the first bedroom I stopped trying to put towels or drop clothes down, there was so little mess it wasn't necessary. I love this product. I have to say that I hope I never have to remove wallpaper again but if I do I know I will come right to SimpleStrip.


Victoria Lombardo. Palentine, IL 03-24-07 "Your product is great! I've never had to strip wallpaper before, but with the SimpleStrip Kit, it was very easy. The wall paper I am stripping has been on a plaster wall for over 20 years. Thankfully, I was able to "pull" off the top sheet and had only to remove the backing sheet and paste. I found that if I left the SimpleStrip backing on for 1 hr or longer, it was much easier to remove the excess paste and backing paper left from the wallpaper. It's a messy job, but well worth the time! I would recommend your product to anyone attempting to remove wallpaper."


Melissa Montgomery, AL 02-02-07 Just a note to let you know how completely satisfied I was with your product. I had been dreading removing this wallpaper since I purchased this home some 3 years ago. I just did not want to have to peel it off bit by bit. I searched the net and visited your site, watched the demo, and finally, purchased the product. OH MY GOSH!!!! It was just a easy as the demo video portrayed it to be. It was so simple and fast. I will never try to remove wallpaper without it. Thanks for making a difficult job easy.


Terry Peterson. Dracut, MA 01-15-07 I just had to drop you a quick line to let you know how satisfied I am with your product. For the past 5 years we have owned our home, we have used basically every product on the market stripping 27 year old wallpaper from 6 room of the house. Every room basically involved using hot water, rags and using every product with little success ending with finally steaming as a last resort. This was very time consuming on drywall since each wall had to be re mud-ed from the damage of the removal process. The last room on our first floor was our family room which I had held off for several years because I dreaded doing the last room. This is a 12’x24’ room with 2 layers of paper. Searching the web one day, I stumbled onto your site and thought I would try it. I received your product last Friday night and started right away with your product. Within 2 hrs, 3/4 of the room was stripped and I was so shocked and excited! I continued and finished the room and am still astonished of how easy and quick your product worked. Your product worked awesome and I didn't have to re-mud the walls with drywall mud since there was no damage in removing it. I am already planning on stripping the bedrooms, but am not going to put it off for long, knowing that there is now a product that will make the job a lot easier. I will recommend your product to all of my friends. I only wish it was available to me years early.
