6-Pack Safety Innovations Self-Closing Outlet Covers (for Center Screw Outlets Only) - an Alternative to Wall Socket Plugs for Child Proofing Outlets, (1-Screw), (White)

DONT BUY. Doesn’t matter what is plugged in it doesn’t stay in. Could be a fire hazard as if the prongs don’t make complete contact it can ark and cause a short. I would be returning these if I could.

These work really well. They are tight against the wall and the plugs stay in. No complaints here except maybe that the paint on the screw gets nicked easily but that can be fixed with a little white paint. I would like to add that if you are covering old outlets, from the 80s or even the 90s, the plugs might not stay plugged in very well. This is not because of the outlet covers, rather its the old outlets that dont hold the plugs very well. In my house we replaced most of the old outlets with new ones and so these outlet covers hold the plugs very well. We have one outlet that is old that we put the cover on and it doesnt hold a plug very well at all.

No screws came even though the description and directions say they should come. Disappointing, but otherwise they are as expected.

Because these outlets add distance between the plug and the socket it makes the connection very unstable. For example if the plug leans out of the socket even a tiny bit it often completely stops receiving power. Some sockets in our house just don’t work with any plug when these covers are on them. Other sockets don’t line up with these covers so plugs don’t even go into them at all. Wish they made a thinner version that didn’t create so much distance and instability to the actual power source.

I don’t have to worry bout my kids messing with the outlets.

We love these! Only flaw is that on some outlets, they stick out too much for you to plug something in. If you dont have a super old house like ours, youll be great!
