This product was a little hard to install but completely worth it. We as parents have our worries already but if furniture falls especially if it could be avoided , I would completely recommend this product. Just to know that your children are safe and all your furniture is safe and secure. Great product and looking forward to more products from safety first!
This is a very good idea and was great for our application because we wanted to secure a TV and the console on which it is sitting with one strap and this does it. BUT...the one really strange design choice is the Wall Brackets should be screwed directly into wall studs. The problem is that the screw holes in these brackets are set side-by-side (horizontally) roughly the width of a wall stud. This makes it virtually impossible to screw both screws into a stud. The choice is to miss one stud entirely, or to have both screws skin the outside edges of the stud, which is no good. The bracket screw holes should be arranged VERTICALLY so that both screws supplied can be screwed into the stud. Very strange design choice on this one.
So i was glad i got this, prior to getting it my hypet toddler would go and punch the 60 inch tv and it would move horribly. My other toddlers likes to hug the people on tv. Anyways when they do so now the tv doesnt move. I feel confident that the tv isnt coming down on them. The brackets are stainless steel the straps are made of a durable construction grade material. Easy to install. The hard part was moving the tv cz it was so big and heavy. Definitely install before placing your tv in a permanent spot.
I have 2 young ones, a 2 year old and a 1 year old. The 2 year old is a boy and very curious and mischievous and gets into a lot of trouble while dragging our 1 year old into it. Our tv is on a low tv stand and both kids can get to it. We just bought this tv because our other one died after a year so we would love to not have to buy a new one for a while. I can't even count how many times we've had to tell them no touching the tv. Have these straps just makes 1 less thing to have to worry about. I'll take any help I can get!!
