Promising review: "This is the only baby safety product I have found that works well for the lever-style door handles. It's fairly easy to operate one-handed and is very easy to install." —Chris Scott

Promising review: "This fits my tub perfectly! It's super cute and functional. It easily went on and the spout still functions with no issues! I definitely feel more confident my little one's head is safe from bumps with this. I would recommend this product to anyone!" —S. Barry

Promising review: "This is a very nice item. It works great for keeping small children out of the fridge and from leaving the door open." —Thomas F Spaniola

Promising review: "I am completely satisfied with this purchase! The mat itself is heavier than others I have seen and it does not slide around. It is also dishwasher safe which makes my life easier. I like the fact that there is a built in bowl because that also means I'm not cleaning a bowl and plate. The suction prevents the mats from sliding, it does not prevent anyone from peeling it off the table. Yes, my 2-year-old does this occasionally but it isn't the placemat's fault." —Jennifer Heinrich

Promising review: "This is going on 16 months and still working. I don't have to worry about my water-loving baby playing in the toilet or flushing his toys down it (or worry he might drown himself in it, heaven forbid!). He is a pretty smart little dude (starting opening doors at 14 months), but he hasn't been able to figure out this lock. And he loves the toilet. I mean, loooves the toilet (who knew toilets could be so fascinating?) I literally can't keep him away. So I'd say this is a must-have for parents." —m

Promising review: "This travel crib exceeded my expectations! Folded, its roughly the same size and shape as my Pack and Play, but a little lighter. Unfolded is when it shines, it is slightly narrower and longer than a pack and play, ideal for my long toddler as she grows. She has to lay diagonal in other mini cribs, but here, she can lay straight with room to spare. I also love the little zippable 'door' at floor level, it really helps if I want to give her the freedom of getting out on her own. Both my kids were especially delighted with this too, they loved to use it as a 'tent' and play in the open crib. It gave them a special place to feel was theirs in a tight guest room." —Jade Klinger

Promising review: "I needed this product to baby proof my house for our 6-month-old as he is going to stand and walk soon. This protects us too from getting hurt from the corners. I have a desk in my living room that has sharp corners and a dining table with sharp corners. These corner protectors were easy to install. There's a small adhesive sticker that you place inside the corner protectors before sticking them to the corners. When I applied them, they stuck immediately. I was surprised by how unnoticeable they were on the corners of my desk." —Tushar

Promising review: "I bought these so my baby wouldn't slip around when sitting in the tub. They work great (without these he would slide very easily). I had to buy two packs to cover the entire tub. They have been sticking really well and it's been six months of daily use for three people (follow the instructions and take the extra time to clean the tub thoroughly and use alcohol to rub it down, then apply). My only complaint is that dirt does seep a little under the outer edges, so the tub looks a little messy even though I've scrubbed it clean." —kikanator

Promising review: "I live in military housing so it's always been hard to find good safety products that don't require drilling or leaving marks when removing. I was very hesitant when I got these. They looked like they couldn't possibly hold back my 2-year-old when he is on a mission to open our patio door. Due to how simple it was to lock and unlock and the adhesive. But how wrong I was to judge! First, the price is amazing for the amount you get. Secondly, they are beyond amazing. My son is pretty strong when it comes to our heavy patio door. Just ONE of these has stood up to him. Of course this does not replace parental supervision, but it is a nice sigh of relief to have a product help safety-proof one of our biggest issues! I live in military housing so it's always been hard to find good safety products that don't require drilling or leaving marks when removing. I highly recommend these!!!" —Chrystal

Promising review: "This is a cute, trendy, functional bassinet! Overall, I think this is a great bassinet. I love that you can raise it up and down to the desired height. It also has a zip down side which is great for easy access and there is still a small side wall when it's down so the baby cannot fall out. It's very spacious, I have a three month old who is the size of an eight month old and there is still plenty of room. It seems like my son also really likes his new bed, his head is always pressed up against the side closest to me. It also has legs that allow it to slide it under your mattress and anchors to anchor to your bed if you should choose. Overall, I love the trendy design and functionality!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I was so happy that I bought these! They are super strong and secure and easy to install. I have a one year old and five year old who both run around and bump into everything, not to mention climbing on stuff, and these give me peace of mind as a father. Definitely a great value and much cheaper than a trip to the emergency room. A definite must for any parents wanting to baby proof their home. I will continue to buy these for any future televisions I may have because I don’t like to mount my televisions to the wall. These are perfect for anyone living in an apartment as well, that way you don’t damage the walls." —Jamie Arredondo

Promising review: "This is LITERALLY a lifesaver when our grandchild is here. There's no way our 18-month-old grandchild can get through this sturdy netting, which is such a relief. We roll it to the side when we're not using it, so it's perfect! If we did not have this fence, our grandchild would go right to the pool every time. Now she plays and we have no worries that she will go into the pool." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "These door guards are excellent! They are thick and sturdy. I'm able to put them on my inside doors with ease and they stay in place. My 16-month-old can not pull them off. The doors DO NOT shut with these on. You can put them on any side of the door. I have one door where my little one could pinch his fingers in the hinges. I'm able to insert the guard on the side with the hinge! The door barely moves open/closed and does prevent fingers from pinching. I highly recommend these." —HTHONLINE

Promising review: "I have never written an Amazon review before, although I literally buy everything off Amazon and read reviews like crazy. However, this has LITERALLY SAVED MY LIFE and all parents must know. Two days after we brought our second child home from the hospital, our 20-month-old started flipping out of his crib so we transitioned to a toddler bed. I’ll save you the details (because if you’re reading this you clearly have young children and are sleep deprived) but we did not sleep for six straight days. I was desperate and bought this. Three days in and our son started sleeping through the night again. It’s been two glorious weeks of using this and I secretly hope he never grows out of it so we can use it forever." —Katie McDermott

Promising review: "I can't say enough great things about this product. After I ordered it they sent me an e-mail with an illustrated installation guide with tips, VERY HELPFUL. I LOVE that the zip-ties are adjustable! I had to readjust them several times to get it looking great (I'm a perfectionist) It was easy to install and a great comfort to have it set up knowing that my little one will be safe. We have a split level and this works great!" —Andrea Miller

The inside lock attaches with a provided adhesive. Once you've applied it, be sure to find a nearby, high spot to hide the key so you don't lose it!
Promising review: "No kidding – these things are a gift from God himself. FINALLY, my young children are not getting into the cabinets and leaving handfuls of smashed up goldfish and tortilla chips in their wake. It's like a game to these little monsters. Thanks to these locks I have some sanity." —JT

Promising review: "These work! I know a lot of us struggle finding good child protective locks/straps but these worked on my 3-year-old. Five minutes after installing he noticed them on the bathroom cabinet and they did not budge! I recommend before you peel and stick these to make note of measurements and clean the surface where you will install. They set up and install in less than 10 minutes! A++" —jennifer beaulieu mcgill

Promising review: "This is my favorite indoor/outdoor baby gear! It is super convenient if you are on the move a lot. It can even be used as a stand alone playpen at home if you put cushioning under it. It is extremely spacious and I have used it for my daughter since she was able to crawl. As a playpen, it is about double the size of a Pack 'N Play and SO MUCH lighter and easier to transport and set up. I have used mine while camping to keep my daughter safe when my attention was needed elsewhere and then I've taken it back home and set it up in the living room. It cleans up very easily with a little soap and water and stows nicely in its bag, which has a handy shoulder strap. My daughter is two now and we still plan on taking it camping this year. I have bought several of these because I give them as baby shower gifts every time I need one." —ESJ

Promising review: "We have a third floor playroom and my kids kept opening up the windows all the way to let some fresh air in. Between them horsing around and a toddler who gets into/climbs on everything, I wanted to make sure the window didn't get opened too far so everyone stayed safe. These have done the trick! It's very easy for someone to override them to get the window open all the way if needed, but they are out of reach for my younger kids and helps EVERYONE know where to stop when opening them. With the blinds down you don't even notice them. I plan to get more for the kids' bedrooms." —toinfinityandbiond

Promising review: "We use this when we bathe my son. I love being able to check water temperature because what my husband thinks is hot is different than what I think is hot. This solves that problem and our son is safe. The light is great because sometimes water splashes on the display and the numbers are harder to read. Even the beeping when too hot is great when you're filling up the tub and not looking at the temperature." —A. Hunsberger
