Safety 1st OutSmart™ Flex Lock

Works great. Bought this to puppy proof our kitchen. At first, it was adult proof because I could not figure it out! But after some playing around, It mastered it. The decoy button is definitely an added bonus for human toddlers. It will keep them busy and distracted. It takes some real double handed adult strength to unlock. This product adds multiple layers of safety to cabinets you don't want curious minds getting into. It's size fits perfectly in between my two cabinets. Great value for your money!!

I have a 3-year old granddaughter who loves to get into all of my cupboards. I have some older model locks that I can’t find anymore. I like this new version even better. (Photos show new and old style.) I purchased the OutSmart Flex Lock to keep her from getting to some of my glass and ceramic dishes. Right away she tried to push the button to open the lock. No luck. She gave up. It even fooled my 20-year old daughter. Everyone thinks the button is a real feature! LOL

Works as it should.The button in the middle foils the little ones. My nephew thought he was one click away from getting his hands into the cabinet and sike his mind.

I have a 5 year old that is super smart and has figured out all other options I have tried. I have been careful to always block his view when I open it and so far he has not been able to figure it out! Great option for stronger kiddos (like mine) that can rip off the corded options (plus the corded ones could pose a strangulation risk).

I have 3 of these. They serve their purpose, but can be difficult to close sometimes. Hubby and I had a really hard time initially figuring out how to open the top...not as far as the buttons, but on how to actually open it. You have to pull the cabinet doors towards you as you push the release buttons. We almost cut them off the first time cuz we couldn’t get it to pull apart until it accidentally happened in our frustration. 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️ Sometimes the alignment gets off when closing them and that can be annoying to try to fix. Luckily these aren’t cabinets we get in/out of frequently.

Easy to open and close (though somewhat awkward to setup and install). Flexible design that works with different handle types. Terrific 'fake out' button that kept my toddler occupied before he decided that trying to get into the cabinet wasn't that exciting after all. In other words, exactly what I needed. He barely even glances at the cabinet doors anymore. Though sometimes he does swing by to push the button a few times just for fun.That said, if you pull out on the lock, the doors will open slightly. I can see how a little might be able to wriggle their way to get their hands on something, but it would have to be small in order for them to successfully get it out from under the cabinet doors. And honestly, it would be a lot of work. My little moves on at a certain point, but if yours doesn't, this might not be the best choice.

Locking mechanism gets stuck and becomes impossible to remove without cutting. One out of the six we purchased never opened after installing. Another one had the same issue a few days later.

My kid is almost 5 and hasn't figure this lock out yet. I fear that won't last too much longer, but it's worked perfectly for so many years.
