6-Pack Safety Innovations Self-Closing Outlet Covers (for Center Screw Outlets Only) - an Alternative to Wall Socket Plugs for Child Proofing Outlets, (1-Screw), (White)

We ended up ordering more after our first order because they were so great. My toddler would just take the safety plugs out that you normally see at the stores so replacing them with these was the best thing we have done because we no longer have to be running after her constantly worrying about her sticking her finger in the electrical socket. So easy to install and use! Theyre perfect and a necessity for any toddler parent!

Love these ! Good quality, easy to install. Definitely recommend.

Thought this would be a good option to baby proof the house without loosing a bunch of plug caps or forgetting to plug them in. I found that the outlets need to be loosened up before installing this or when you plug things in it keeps the plug from fully sitting in the outlet since they are deep. I’d recommend for new outlets or for outlets you rarely use, but plan on having to fully remove the outlets, add backing nuts to the outlet mounting screws and then install the faceplate. Not as convenient or easy to mount as I’d hoped. But with a little effort they do work and you don’t have to worry about little fingers in outlets.

I use these all throughout the house in places that the baby can reach and where we don’t have anything plugged in all the time. I have had something plugged in them all the time and it does heat up and it could have melted the cover (like other reviewers mention). Therefore, I only use these on UNUSED outlets. Otherwise, you can buy the Universal Power Outlet Cover Box that covers the plugged item. I also buy OutSmart Outlet Shields for unused outlets in baby’s bedroom and playroom area.

I would like them to be slightly bigger but they cover nicely anyway. They are as big as the ones I took off. They are very easy to install. I did 18 of them in less than 15 minutes. Its nice not to have to call an electrician to do the hardwired kind to childproof our house for our granddaughter. More colors would also be a good thing. Ive ordered 18 more.

They look good and went on easily. Definitely not easy enough for my little one to open. Fingers crossed there’s no melting like other people experienced

These are very easy to install - you can just put them over without rewiring the outlet, which is a huge pro! The only issue is that because they kind of float over the outlet (vs. snapping to the side of an outlet like a normal outlet frame), the single screw style sometimes becomes crooked when youre using it. You have to push a bit to get the plug in -- I found that this works best by using the prongs of the plug to push the piece over. Else, you could accidentally close the circuit with your finger.

Works well most of the time. The slide over feature is pretty easy to use. Two problems. 1) Some of the covers came stuck in the closed position. We had to get a screwdriver and force it open the first time. Then they worked well. 2) This outlet lays on top of the old outlet. It doesnt replace it, so shorter plugs dont actually go all the way through. Some plugs fall out. Others are a little unstable and will loose their connection when bumped.

I just got this today and installed them today so I cant speak to the durability, but I was very pleased as soon as I got them out of the box. I like the idea of the slide-over mechanism versus outlet plugs because even if your kiddo unplugs something, they cant try to plug it back in, or try to put something else (small, metal) in there. Obviously the same goes for someone that removes an outlet cover and forgets to put it back in (other kids, visitors that dont have small kiddos, etc.). I really like that they came with the foam backing (insulation), which I read (in another review) is supposed to help with drafts. I also appreciate that it came with longer screws as the covers themselves stick out a little from the wall and need that little extra length of the screw to be secure. (I read in 1 review that these are supposed to go over existing outlet covers; that isnt the case. You need to completely remove the current ones and put these on. I also read that they didnt come with longer screws - mine did.) The covers are tough to slide over using your finger, which is exactly what you want these to do. I came back to Amazon to order more tonight, but when I saw some of the negative reviews about things coming unplugged or things that working right because it couldnt get a solid connection, I decided to try these out for awhile since my son isnt crawling yet then come back and give an update. But so far they seem well-made and priced well. Yes, theyre a little more expensive than others, but you can tell they are well-made and its worth paying an extra $0.50-$0.75 to help keep my son safe.

Though these outlet covers arent as wide as my orginal covers, they are much better than the plastic individual covers. Some large cords have a hard time staying plugged in the outlets, but its worth it not to have my child electrocuted.
