KidCo Anti-Tip Furniture Straps

Comments about KidCo Anti-Tip Furniture Straps:

I'm an in-home childcare provider & a mother of a very active 13 month boy...so not only did I need something to hold furniture to the wall because of my own good conscience but it was a requirement by the state...these are awesome! I bought a pack to try out & they worked so well that I bought more. We tried using an L-bracket for a shelving unit but I hated it!! It just didn't work that well & was way too stiff (obviously since they're metal)...but these can be adjusted a little (not too much as you want it tight for safety) and they're durable...ordering even more for all the dressers & such as my child is now figuring out how to open drawers & climb up them.

We used these on an antique dresser for my daughter's room. It sucked to have to drill into the dresser, but is worth keeping it from falling on her when she decides to start using it to pull up on. Be sure to attach to studs in the wall.

They get the job done at a good price

We used only one of the anchors(directions call for both), but we used on a small corner curio and one is sufficient. This was the only wall anchor I could find that was easy to remove and replace as needed( for furniture cleaning, or wall painting) without having to continually put new holes in the wall.I would definitely recommend this product.

Work in hospital and have seen toddlers/young children seriously injured with tip accidents from large furniture and tv balanced on dressers(usually in bedroom) or flimsy tv stand cause serious head injury and 1 death. I recommend this as a childproofing device for all parents who have a climber or toddler/young kid who wants to reach something(usually tv)

This was easy to install and worked to secure our furniture.

These straps are sturdier than they appear. The plastic is pretty strong. My husband installed them in just a few minutes. We were terrified that our toddler would pull his dresser on top of him, but not anymore. The only downside is the straps are visible from the side, but it's a small price to pay for safety and peace of mind!

This is used on a 6+ foot tall bookcase. It was a little awkward to mark the areas to drill, but that's the only con so far. My 18-month-old hasn't truly tested it yet.

my daughter's dresser was on the rug and very unstable when any of the drawers were opened.

This is just a give-in if you have a child then you need this product. Children are very curious and will make anything into a ladder including drawers or shelves so unless you are ok with a 50-100 lb. piece of furniture falling on your child then you need this.

These straps are a must have if you have small children. They are easy to put behind heavy furniture so they can't pull them down on their heads! They are adjustable and can be removed easily if you have to move the furniture - as I just did when we moved. Great safety investment.

I installed this while 9 months pregnant and can now be assured the bookcase won't tip while my toddler climbs on it and my hands are tied up with the new baby.

I keep books in tall narrow bookcases right next to Grammy's rocker. Now I don't worry that they will tip over.

I have a bookshelf in my kid's bedroom and use this to keep the bookshelf from tipping over onto my children when they try to climb it (I haven't met a toddler who doesn't like to practice climbing). It has probably saved their lives repeatedly because I often catch them trying to climb that bookshelf. If it weren't for my foresight in installing that strap, the bookshelf would probably have killed them.

These are a great concept but need some major improvement in design, in my opinion. I bought 3 packs and used only one and even then my super handy man Dad modified them. I would NOT trust these for a very large piece of furniture. After my 2 1/2 year old tipped his 6 drawer chest over and by the grace of God it did not hit him or my 10 month old daughter, I ordered these. The plastic bracket that screws into the wall & which the strap attaches to "gives" WAY too much when we tested it. No way would I trust even two of these mounted (as recommended) to prevent a tip over, esp if a toddler's weight, standing on a drawer, were added to picture.
