This broke the first day when my wife accidentally closed the door on it. Would’ve loved to get more than a day out of it!

I use these locks on my freezer doors. They work well and are easy to open IF you install the female end on the front of the freezer. One hand operation is simple. Problem is, the male end (the tab on the vinyl strap) is the one that always breaks. But it is REPLACEABLE. So why don't they include an extra tab or two in each package to save time when one breaks unexpectedly? Hmmmm?
It works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this product on the microwave. I couldn't figure out how to install it so i had my dad do it. This lock came in handy because my toddler likes to open the microwave. With the help of this Saftey 1st lock my toddler had no chance at opening the microwave. We really needed this and my toddler didn't even see it coming.
Works Wonderfully!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product complimentary for my review. All opinions are my own. The product worked really great! I was a little worried it would be difficult to install but was actually quite easy. It helped a lot in keeping an exploding toddler out of things. I do think some other products could potentially do a better job depending on the strength of your toddler. Overall, it worked well and I was pleased!
Keep your toddlers safe!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have triplets that are 19.5 months old. They are always getting into the kitchen cabinets or pantry when I let them loose (which isn't often). Haha! I felt like this was pretty easy to install and even with 3 toddlers yanking at it stood up to the job pretty well! I do have to say it doesn't fit every situation/appliance, but every product doesn't so that's to be expected. I do worry that between the 3 of them and their strength they will figure it out rather quickly though. I received this safety first appliance strap at no cost in exchange for my honest review.
Easy to install and a quick solution.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall the safety latches were easy to install. Just follow the instructions given and remember to clean the surface first for good adhesion. They are effective for keeping little hands and bodies out of cabinets and appliances, but it can be a smal hassel opening the latch every time. You get used to it though, and it is worth it. The two pack is convenient. I do recommend these for a side by side fridge though as the only location that would effectively work is the very top. They work great for a washing machine and dishwasher.
Useful in the right situation

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This appliance strap from Safety first is a good idea if the right situation calls for it. If you have a child intent on getting into appliances (oven, washing machine, etc) it will definitely prevent that. However, I found that i could use this on only 1 appliance - my oven. All other appliances (dishwasher, top loading washer, refrigerator) either were not installed a way that I could attach this strap OR they weren't needed. That being said, it was an easy install and fairly easy to use. Mildly annoying, perhaps, but most child safety items are :) Overall, I would say, check your appliance to see if this can be used and go for it if you feel you need to prevent your child from breaking into an appliance. I received this safety first appliance strap at no cost in exchange for my honest review.
Helpful with littles!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been helpful for me with my 15 month old, as she's at that stage where she can get into pretty much everything (and does!). We use it on the fridge, and it has prevented her from opening and pulling out all the glass jars that would break on the tile.
Amazing product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a first-time mom, Safety First has been the go-to brand for baby proofing all around. From reviews, and mom recommendations, I'm glad we decided to try their products, including the Multi Purpose Appliance Strap which I was sent to try and review. I love that the Multi Purpose Appliance Strap is great for more than just the oven and fridge, it also works well with any extra cupboards you may not want the baby getting into. Strong and hold well, plus easy to install. It takes seconds for a toddler to get into something they shouldn't, products like this give you piece of mind that you just can't buy.
Perfect for the little ones that like exploring the fridge!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the product on my fridge. My toddler has a problem of helping himself to anything in the fridge and this was perfect! Now instead I hear him screaming at the fridge that it wont open.
I would definitely buy this product again

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a nice locking system to keep small children out of the refrigerator. I highly recommend this for use if you have a child from the age of 1-4 maybe older if you have a trouble maker😉
Great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These appliance straps really bring peace of mind when you have toddlers who run around the house and are full of curiosity! For me personally, my little one is always opening the refrigerator and trying to climb inside to find a snack. Not only is this a hastle having to chase after him to close it and remove him, but it's a safety hazard as well. With the safety strap, I don't have to worry about him opening the door and climbing anymore! The lock is easy to install and operating without being a burden to use the refrigerator as we normally do.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been looking for a solution to our cabinets under the sink and this definitely solved the problem! As we all know toddlers are masters at getting in to any space and mine is no exception! We store a lot of chemicals and supplies under the sink in our kitchen so definitely want to keep those out of our exploring toddlers hands. We tried traditional cabinet locks that mount inside the door and the frame but we found that these did not catch well and often the mighty force of our toddler pulling allowed him to get them open anyways. We also tried a bungee cord however this was difficult to loop and, given the frequency we go in and out of this cabinet, it was not conducive to our needs. This latch was able to be installed quickly and even adjusted once before firmly pressing in to place. It stayed in place even with my force pulling on it. The latch connection makes it very easy to click and unclip or reclip as needed to get in to whatever you are latching. I think my favorite part, since it is under the sink, is that the plastic is easy to wipe down if anything falls on it or it gets wet or generally dirt from being in an area with cooking and food. It has held up very well so far through multiple tugs, yanks, and pulls from a rambunctious exploring toddler so I have zero complaints! I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a safety solution for their toddler or for any reason at all.
Would DEFINITELY buy again!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although I was aware of this product I had never tried it or anything like it, I resorted to duct tape because thats what I had on hand, and duct tape leaves a sticky mess compared to these straps. I would definitely buy these again! It was very easy to install, just pull the piece off covering the sticky portion like a band-aid and stick it where you want it. I used it on my dryer because my door latch was broken and I though this would be perfect! It would keep my door shut and the kids out! Plus every time I did a load of laundry and was using the duct tape I had to put a new piece or multiple pieces on every time and it left all the stickiness behind. This strap however doesn't have to be replaced every time and when it comes time to take it off and or replace it, I will only have to deal with two much smaller areas that could possibly leave a sticky residue. Very happy with this product and will be buying and recommending to friends.
Very strong and easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids have this bad habit of getting into the fridge and eating everything in sight before it's time to go shopping again. These are like seatbelts for the appliances! My kids can work them BUT if you put them up high enough, they can't reach them. The peel and stick adhesive is super strong and it didn't leave any residue on my appliances when peeled off. I don't think there's any way someone could break these. If you have a fridge-freezer side by side, I recommend putting the latch on the freezer and the strap on the door. I really wish I had found these sooner ☝🏼☝🏼 They'd work perfect for cabinets, toilets, dishwashers, etc...
I recommend this product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recently moved to a house from an apartment. This home has a very open concept which makes baby proofing with baby gates difficult. We opted to install cabinet and drawer locks as well as used these appliance locks. These are a life saver as our son loved to open the fridge throughout the day. Now he cant which saves our food, increases our energy efficiency, and keeps our sanity intact. Definitely recommend!

I'm a grandparent and the grandchildren are always opening the frig. I've even had one crawl in and the other close the door! I'm using the appliance lock on the frig of course and it works great! Thanks safety 1st for making an amazing product!
