Review on 🔧 Blum Compact Soft-Close Bluemotion Variable 1-3/8 inch Overlay Hinge Set (4 Hinges) by Mike Shah

These hinges were a perfect match for the existing hinges in my house so they were a quick and easy replacement. The soft close feature works well enough that I just replaced one of the two hinges with a plate for a quick and efficient soft close. Please note that the panel closed TOO slowly when replacing both hinges. Originally the plan was to only do the kitchen so with extra steps (only 1x panel now) I replaced all the panels in the house. I also recommend 86 degree hinge clamps for panels you want to constrain beyond 90 degrees as they can hit something like a wall or another panel. Quick and easy assembly in these hinges, which limit the opening angle to around 90°.
