I just posted a review in the Baby Bargains childproofing section and thought I'd make a quick reference here (I've found that unfortunately, this message board is not that active and the Baby Bargains one has more childproofing info.) Do not waste your time buying the Safety 1st drawer latches that are mounted by drilling to cabinets (the kind that you open the drawer and then push down on the latch to open-the kind that you see for sale everywhere). They don't work-kids can still stick their hands into the drawer with the couple inches of clearance the latch allows and if they pull long and hard enough they can open the cabinets. We installed them correctly and bought the ones that come only a few to a pack instead of 12 to a pack, thinking they were better. They are not.
