Customer Review: Works well, but too easy to break
Summary: 3 Stars
I have mixed feelings about this fridge lock. It seems to work pretty well as designed, and i had no problems with the adhesive as so many other people did. It's also easy enough for kindergarten-age kids to figure out; my 5-year old can get into the fridge with no problem. However, I have a couple of issues with it.
1) It's not easy to open one-handed. I can do it, but I have very large hands. I don't think my wife can. Also, to do it I have to use the non-intuitive hand: i.e. the fridge opens on the left side but I have to use my right hand to get the lock open one-handed. I've gotten so used to this, though, that I barely even think about it anymore.
2) It's not the most durable lock. A determined 2-year old can break the long plastic pieces with enough determination by bending them backwards (assuming the fridge door is already open). My middle child, who turned 3 last month, broke the top "tine" about 6 months ago, which was easily fixed with some duct tape; but this weekend he broke the bottom "tine" and now the lock has reduced function (even with more duct tape applied to both tines). I'm going to have to replace it. Originally I was going to get the same fridge lock, but then I came online and realized that I've only had this lock for about 12 months (not the 24 months I originally thought). Seems like I should get more than a year's use out of this product.
All in all I can't say I dislike the product; it's been very effective keeping our kids out of the fridge. But I also feel like it didn't last long enough to get a 4- or 5-star rating. I guess what is boils down to is: make this purchase with your eyes wide open. It works, but like everything else these days it's not high-quality and has a limited life.
