SHUT YOUR FACE - Self-Closing Outlet Cover (2-SCREW Decora Outlets)
This face plate is exceptionally bulky. All of the main base plate is super thick, and then both of the flipping little access faces are SUPER thick too. I wasn’t anticipating it to be so thick…. And so after I put away all the Christmas decorations this year, and return the furniture to its normal spots… I might have to uninstall this again because it won’t fit behind a little end table. It will force any of your furniture to sit out a couple inches away from the wall. And that honestly doesn’t work for me with my end tables, they have to sit against the wall to be safe with the kids, but these face plates are so insanely thick that that’s not even possible.
I may just resort to moving this into the kids room if I can’t make it work better in the living room. But that’s a bummer because I needed it mostly for the living area and when I’m vacuuming and mopping constantly during the day with the kids running around on the floor.
Then I think there’s an obvious fatal flaw here no one seems to be discussing. One of these face plates is $25. How many outlets do you have in your home? With this company engineering a child safety face plate that’s designed to replace all of your normal face plates… then how are they are pricing them so high?? Just to replace the ones in my living room alone, I would have to spend $300 on the 12 outlets here!! How does this work economically for anyone in real life??? I’m genuinely asking! This is not a sustainable product that was designs with realistic intentions of helping moms. It’s a gimmick product that’s insanely bulky, that’s wildly overpriced, and probably is making the creators A LOT of money quickly, from people just buying one to try out.
I would not buy this product myself, and I would not recommend this to others. If I had spent my own money on this, I would 100% be returning it and getting my money back.
