Iffy July 20, 2010 D. Darling (American Forces Europe) Couldn't get the darn thing to work. What really sucks is that once you attach it, you can't move it around so you get only one try at the thing. I think I'll leave it up to the proffessionals from now on.
4 Stars with some hesitance............ May 10, 2010 L. Olson (St Cloud Mn USA) Here is my top pros and cons:
Pros
1. Very quick to set up and install.
2. Easy understandable directions
3. Extremely strong backing--these will not come off without significant effort
4. I have custom cherry cabinets with thick doors-no problem for the magnetic key.
5. No screws. But there if you need them.
6. Sturdy, solid product
Cons
1. I found (after numerous trial and error) that they do not work with narrow cabinet doors. I have several long and skinny doors that I had to remove the locks on because they did not match up after the install. I believe the angle of the narrow door prevents the latches from lining up straight and connecting.
2. A few of the locks (out of 20 used) did not work properly. It appears the magnetic latch on a few do not sit flush when shut and this prevents the latch from hooking resulting in a non-locked door.
3. No extra sticky back tabs when I have to remove the latches --I have tried 3M sticky squares cut to size and they do not adhere at all. I then used screws and they worked fine. You cannot reattach with the original sticky tabs once they have been removed.
4. Magnetic keys are a bit pricey. I have 3 and keep them close to the most used drawers.
Overall performance is excellent after I figured out I could not use them on my narrow doors and found 2 that did not latch correctly. They are great when you do not want to use screws. We use a combo of the cheapo plastic press latches that have to be screwed in and these. I have put the cheapo press ones on drawers we access all the time--like our silverware--because it is less hassle than to get the key, open the door, put key back multiple times in a day.
I would recommend this product but not for all instances.
I love this lock / key system April 3, 2010 dk (boston, ma) This is a great childproof lock / key system. No unsightly plastic and locks visible to the naked eye. I don't ever use the holder for the key b/c it actually just attaches to our windowsill (magnetic). I love it.
Genius! These locks are the best choice. March 5, 2010 T. Hunter (Cleveland, OH) They were super easy to install, key is always on the fridge and my daughter (little hercules) cannot open them. Good investment, would recommend.
Great product, great price December 15, 2009 A. Crandall (Lewes, DE) The best device of its type on the market. Easy install, secure operation. Highly recommend.
