Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

These Door Monkeys are the kind of product you don't realize how much you need them until you no longer have them. Yeah, they seem overpriced for what they are, and yes, they do tend to break eventually. But if you have yard gremlins, curtain crawlers, rug rats running around the house, wreaking havoc in your master bedroom when you're not looking, unrolling all the TP in your bathroom and throwing your remotes in to the toilet, you'll come to realize not having something like these Door Monkeys isn't an option. One tip: If yours broke in the same way a couple of ours have, where the spring which helps it grip the door no longer works, there's an easy, cheap fix: Search on Home Depot "3m 3/4 in. x 22 ft. Temflex Rubber Splicing Tape", (they sell it in-store as well), cut off a piece, give it a stretch and simply wrap one of the ends until it fits your door snuggly to extend the life of your Door Monkey (see pictures). The tape only cost $2.50, the roll last forever and has many other uses so it's a nice thing to have around the house. Our Door Monkey broke 6 months ago and my jerry-rig fix is still holding strong.
