I tried to use the fancy plug covers first- the ones where you have to squeeze the sides to pull it out. They never worked, so I bought these. These are much better! I was worried that my son could pull them out, since they are such a simple design, but he can't. He has tried. I suggest you forget the hi tech covers and go with these. Plus there are a ton in the package. They will cover the whole house.

What I like the most about these is also what I like the least. They are extremely difficult to get out once put in. (Especially a NEW outlet) That's good if you have an extremely craftly little tot who can get into anything. Hard for Mom when you want to plug in the vacuum.

Any type of these work well, really. I've yet to see either of my children pick them off. Though they are kind of hard to get off yourself when you get to get to the outlet.

I bought these outlet plugs based on the reviews. We live in a 21 year old home, and maybe our outlets are just not as tight as newer homes? I don't know the reason, but these outlet plugs are too easy for my 8 month old to pull out. He actually loves pulling them out! But, this product does give me enough time to get to him before he jams his fingers in the outlet.

I had purchased a number of "fancy" outlet plugs. Many claiming to make it hard for a toddler to get out but easy for an adult to. My one-year old figured them all out and I was getting frustrated. Mommy's Helper Outlet Plugs resolved that frustration. It is actually hard for my child to remove them from sockets and while it takes more effort for me to remove them, I rather that than my child be electrocuted. Did I mention they are alot cheaper than the "fancy" alternatives?

These are basic outlet covers. So far the baby hasn't been able to pull them off. They're unobtrusive so they probably don't catch her eye.

Extremely pleased with these little wonders; white opaque nearly transparent color makes them hardly noticeable on the wall,easy to slide in,and once plugged; amazingly difficult to remove even for me.. not to mention a toddler.Thanks

I tried the fancier ones before I bought these and let me tell yoju, Don't waste your money on those! These are much easier, just pop in and out but not so easy that a child could get them out. I have a 3 year old and a new baby on the way. My 3 year old has tugged at these with no luck and he is very strong for his age. So, if he can't get them out, I don't think any other young child could. Definitely worth it to just buy these, great value for your money!

These are unfortunately useless since my 1 year old has made it her life's purpose to remove these from the sockets & then try to stick them back in... ummm, not the safest game! I'm buying the more expensive safe plate outlet covers instead (the kind where you replace the entire outlet cover).

We tried other outlet plugs that my 10 month old daughter pulled out easily, so I bought these after reading so many reviews that they are hard to remove. Unfortunately, my daughter can also pull these out very easily. My home's outlets look pretty standard to me, but perhaps there is a design issue that makes it so easy for my daughter? I'm not too upset since these were very inexpensive, but we will be looking for a different product for our outlets.
