Dreambaby Safety Catches for Cabinets and Drawers

These have been awesome so far! They have def served their purpose on keeping my 15 month old out of my utensil drawers and from underneath the sink where our bathroom cleaning supplies are. I installed all of these myself without my husbands help. With his power tool. All you need really is a pencil to help trace where you want the catcher at etc so you can pre drill the holes with screws. We haven't had any of these break on us. No matter how forcefully we yank open our drawers. Same with our son. Their def worth the money to keep the drawer closed. Except my son can still reach his hand into my dish towel drawer and pull out some dish towels. But he's pretty much given up on doing so. Since the fun of pulling open the drawer completely doesn't work anymore with the safety catch. Plus it's nice these come with 12. So you have extra left over in case. Love them. Highly recommend.

I bought a similar product at my local hardware, and it just didn't work (latch wouldn't catch). No problems whatsoever if you are handy with a drill. There are certainly other styles that might work for same application but that choice is up to you. These have worked for us I don't know why people are saying that this is hard to install. If you can drill four holes and line up things, you can install. Maybe if you think peeling a piece of adhesive is the extent of your ability, then this is beyond your talents. The key is to install the piece that attaches to the cabinet first, then you line up the other part, pencil in your drill holes. Drill the holes. Screw in two screws and you are done.

The best thing about these latches is that there are 12 in the package and they are very affordable. They are somewhat fragile but because there are so many, you can easily replace what was broken. Two screw-heads broke off while I was screwing the latches on. One of the latch-head broke too, but now after having them installed for a month or more, nothing has broke and they are working well. Hint: Make sure to install both parts of the latch (the hook and the little paired "pocket" for the hook). The reason my one latch-head broke (described above) was because I was using the drawer stud as the thing which catches the latch instead of the "pocket" for the latch that comes with the product (each latches comes with the paired counterpart so the latch catches properly when the drawer is opened).

This is my second time purchasing these latches. I have a very physically enthusiastic toddler. We installed these latches on the bottom cabinet doors. Obviously it’s not a fun endeavor to have to drill anything, but my SO made short work of it. My toddler loves to yank the cabinets open as far as he can and bang them shut, so these can take quite a beating. Only one has failed, it’s the one on the roll-out garbage can drawer, and that’s because the can shifted around and got in the way of a proper closure, the drawer was forced shut and the latch broke. Now the baby can reach the drawers, so we’ve purchased another set to fully equip the kitchen before my kid dumps a drawer of knives on his head.

These were terrible. We have 2 yr old twins who love to open drawers and play with what they find. We have used other brands of this type of child safety latch that work great to keep little hands out of stuff. These, however, were awful. Do not buy them. They are too long, so my kids were still able to worm their hands in and grab stuff making the whole device pointless. The plastic was also super stiff, so when trying to push down to open the drawers, the plastic just wasn't flexible enough. Lastly, they plastic was so cheap, that opening the drawer (and I am by no means a hulk...) caused the latch part to snap off entirely. I did that several times and was just left with crappy plastic sticks on my drawers that absolutely did not prevent my kids from getting any the drawer contents. We have had to remove these and reinstall another brand's version. These were a big, fat waste of time and money.

No toddler can hack this device, that is for sure. Yes, it safe. However, I am giving it 1 star because this product is annoyingly impractical, as they break easily. Now, my family blames me for being too strong. (Well, I like hearing it.) The manufacturer should have been aware of that: when a draw full of metal silverware is moving, the force created by the momentum is much larger than what can be created by a slight movement of wrist. Actually, my drawers are pretty empty, Even so, I am breaking them like one piece every two days. It is not a big deal in terms of money, especially when we think that we can use them in places where we only occasionally open; well, it is about time. After it is broken, I have to find my screw driver and take a couple minutes unscrewing the old one and installing a new one. It sounds easy on paper and anybody can do it without mistakes. Nonetheless, personally I find it very annoying. There were used to be safety latches at my home, my impression is that they broke after years. So, I didn't pay attention on reviews of this product that had pointed out the plastic was too fragile. I didn't realize that they are so fragile. I will not buy this product again. Edited: uprise to 3 stars, because I don't break them anymore, I have changed my behavior style. //And, we moved our knives to a different place, that saved us a few latches.

I bought these because of 10 month old is running around and opening up cabinets now. I was so worried that he'd get into the cleaning supplies. These are hard to install. It took me 30 minutes just to install 3. It took a drill driver and had to predrill into my cabinets before they would even fit correctly. You really do have to mark it on the cabinets where to install it so that it will actually lock. It does work and it was a great price though!

They do the job and keep the little ones out. I was comfortable installing them so if you are normally handy or know someone that can help you install them get them. If i need them again i will be reordering the same ones. I don't know how they will stand up to being moved but I will find out in a few months and i'll update then.

Muy prácticas, un poco complicado instalarlas pero su función es muy buena

Muy util y facil instalacion

el producto es de Buena calidad, sin embargo es un poco complicado instalarlo al inicio, recomiendo revisar el tipo de Puerta o cajon donde se desea instalar primero antes de comprarlo ya que no es compatible con todo tipo de mueble

They work awesome
