My 15 month old just discovered she is tall enough to reach the water dispenser in the door of the fridge. Does anyone know who sells a gadget to baby proof the water dispenser so she can't push the lever that makes the water come out?

Thanks!!

Ours has a button that you push to lock it.

I think you could just fashion a small box out of sturdy cardboard and wedge it in behind the lever. Then if she pushes on the lever, it won't go back far enough to trigger the water flow.

Will your fridge take magnets? Maybe you could cover the whole panel with something that has magnets at the four corners. Of course, she might be able to move that, but maybe out of sight out of mind??

I like this - you could just get a piece of clear plexiglas and buy those stick on magnet strips to put all around the edges.
