Review on Stainless Soft Catch Installation Perforated Self Adhesive by Juan Patel

Revainrating 4 out of 5

hydraulic damper is much better than spring alone

Summary: I've been using magnetic door latches for a while and love them except when the door closes too quickly the door bounces off the stopper. Observations: This block with hydraulic damper solves this problem. To be honest, I was a bit skeptical that this would work. Recommendations: 1) Install the big side first, then remove the spring from the small side and just install the cap to align the smaller side with the larger side. 2) For drywall, make sure you use good quality anchors (not included). Pros: good fit and finish; strong magnet; includes the necessary equipment. Cons: Currently none. Bottom Line: For $12, I'm rating these 4 stars and will update the rating once I get a chance to run it a few times (to test the hydraulic damper). I can also recommend the lower NEOERA for a few bucks more, which I gave 5 stars for the better (smoother) hydraulic damper mechanism (see attached video in this review). ://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CXMJLSQ
