Fireplace guard Sep 28, 2001 I bought this item for my sister-in-law and then later one for myself and we both feel it isn't all that great of an item. I felt it was a little pricey for what you get. The cushion doesn't stay on very well. It comes with double sided stick tape to put it on the edge of the fireplace and it comes off very easily. My 8mos old is now crawling and grabbing edges of tables etc. to pull himself up and he pulled it right off the fireplace. It has good cushion to it, but just doesn't stay in place. My sister-in-laws came up off her fireplace just like mine did and she wasn't that impressed with it. If you can find another product, I would try it first. I have seen some in magazines, they cost more, but might be worth it if they stay in place.

Effective but, Comes Up Short Jul 22, 2001
By Jeanette O'Keefe I purchased this item for myself to protect my son and although the guard is providing a soft cushiony cover for the corners/sides of my hearth, I had to cut the two pieces for the sides to get them to fit. (I have a standard sized hearth). When I was placing the strips on the front I came up short for the long front edge of the hearth. There was a gap that measured about 6 inches that was not covered. I put one of the pieces that was left, when I cut one of the side pieces, in the gap and still came up a little short. My suggestion, there should be an extra strip included in this kit as well as extra adhesive strips. It is great for protection but, not so hot in the appearance category.

point of purchase being...??? Feb 25, 2002
By Nicole We put the guard on...following directions, cleaning and all, and what happened? Half of it fell of, and the rest of it was pulled off by my daughter! If its supposed to keep my baby safe, then how come she pulled it right off? This product was a complete waste of money, and I couldn't return it or get my money back because it says "may not stick to all surfaces". What kind of customer service is that?

Andy Oct 10, 2003 I bought this product on-line and installed it on my fireplace. My (at the time) 11 month old toddler immediately pulled every last piece off ("NO" is such a hard thing at this age). I tried a heavier duty double-sided tape. Same result. Last week, 15 month old toddler, promptly smacks head on now bumper free fireplace. After an emergency room visit (no stiches, thank God) I decided to anchor guards into place with screws and anchors. Not the proper way these things are supposed to be installed. I am going to buy another set and super glue them to fireplace. Granted it is no one's fault that my son hit his head. But definitely agree that super glue needs to be supplied as standard item with this product. The product is fine but from reading reviews, everyone seems to agree, the anchoring system supplied is inadequate. I know that in the instructions they say a more durable type of tape or fastener may be necessary but at this point it should be considered standard.

Needs better tape Jul 09, 2003
By Thomas D. Arthur The guard is made up of two parts, the foam and the double-sided tape. Fortunately, the foam is high quality and very dense. If it would attach properly, I'm sure it would work well. However, the double-sided tape is a joke. It comes in a solid sheet that needs torn off. It is very difficult to remove the paper cover without ending up with a ball of tape. If this product had better tape, I would rate it a 5. But with this tape it is definitely a 1.
