Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have used this on my pantry and bathroom doors. I chose the Door Monkey because I have lever handles and like that it does not require any hardware or 'sticky' parts in order to work. I believe I have very standard door frames and molding. Pros: 1. Ease of attachment/removal - no screws or sticky bits. It takes two seconds to attach once you realize how simple it is. 2. Ease of use - Can be used from both sides of the door without removing it. Push the button or move the latch depending on which side of the door you are on. 3. Pinch guard - My 18 month old hasn't been hurt after a few weeks of use. 4. Effectiveness - He knows what is in the pantry. He wants it. He tries to open the door every so often by pulling the lever handle but it doesn't budge. I can keep the Door Monkey out of reach for many more years. 5. Portability - I took it over to the grandparents house and it works on their internal doors. Cons: 1. Door remains open 1/2-1 inches. This isn't convenient for my guest bathroom since the Door Monkey has to be removed to fully close the door. 2. Visible - It is very obvious, even against a white door/door frame. This doesn't bother me - A lever door handle cover/child lock is very obvious. White flour and uncooked spaghetti all over the floor is also very obvious. 5/5 rating because the Door Monkey is a great child lock for many of my internal doors and it is easy to install and use, makes no marks where it is installed, and is easily movable to other doors. Update 1/17/2012 - my now 27 month old son still doesn't get past the door monkey. I have 4 of them now and all are holding up very well. Update 12/16/2012 - One of my Door Monkeys wore out. It doesn't catch every time so I am guessing it is a worn out spring.
