Review on 🔒 Munchkin Xtraguard Dual Action Multi Use Latches: A Comprehensive Safety Solution (2 Count) by Pop Henneghan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

They stick and are strong, but don't use them for fancy things!

I bought another brand with an adjustable strap and it didn't fit my family so here's a replacement. These Munchkin fasteners work BEAUTIFUL. They lasted three weeks with a house full of kids and two adults who usually forget the fridge is closed and pull it when it's closed. No indication that it will fall apart or come loose! I love that both sides can be unlocked and that once unlocked it flips down instead of getting stuck in the open fridge door while an unsuspecting 7 year old wanders around thinking the fridge is closed when it's actually open . My smart two year old knows what to do to pick the lock, but he doesn't have the knack to pick it (small miracle). the last 11 years for all products: If possible, omit the latches and simply put the "safe" things in the base cabinets. Increase the detergents high. Unless your child is in danger of cutting off a finger or two from Lazy Susan's corner cabinet, I would NOT put them on top of your fancy cabinets or expensive furniture that you want to keep. When the glue works that well it will ruin your fancy cabinets/wood/painted surfaces unless you have 3 hours and all the patience to scrape that crap off when you no longer need it. Save these puppies for the fridge, trash can, or toilet—surfaces should be smooth and non-porous. Put it on a crappy IKEA TV that you'll be throwing away in a year or three because your seven-year-old decided to doodle on it with an empty mechanical pencil on the last day of second grade. If you have good kitchen cabinets or you have a stingy landlord, invest in fancy magnetic locks.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
