Previously tried some soft plastic clear bumpers with knobs but the reaction between the plastic and the cabinet trim resulted in them actually softening and sticking to the drawer door/front; annoying, really had to rip open the closet door to loosen the sticking. These 3M bumpers don't have that problem and offer more cushioning (quieter). BENEFITS Good quality self-adhesive backing High damping (quiet, does not slam when cabinet door closes) Does not chemically react with cabinet/drawer front surface CONSNNot noticed
