Worked well; included a vegetable simulation.
I have a sofa table in my living room with two sharp corners exposed. There was a close call once with my daughter slipping while dancing and almost falling into it. She also has scared me running through the room. I went to the big box store here in town and paid way too much for an "okay" product. Eventually it fell off, even. I have since had a chair in front of the corner--it looks bad. I bought these not completely sure what to expect, particularly regarding measurement. These are so much better than foamy things I had in the past. The Caring Corners are pliable but clearly rugged. Installation was extremely easy--all I had to do was remove three pieces of adhesive and place over my corner. I have to be honest--I am not all that concerned about air bubbles. I wanted practicality more than style. Nonetheless, without any explicit effort do do so, I had a bubble-free corner, protected corner. Placement was a breeze--seriously, these things are hard to mess up in the installation. The adhesive is tough, and I have no worry about them falling off like some product from [your local big box store]. They also appear unobtrusive from across the room. My biggest concern was just how well they would protect--would they really dampen a hard blow and protect against a head gash (or other gash as it is only head high for my daughter). I "tested" it first using my hand, my leg, my daughter pushed it with her hand to help out. They definitely do a great job of providing a soft corner from the feel test. I am very happy with them. Don't take my word for it, though. I simulated the effects using my dinner. That's right--I sacrificed my squash to illustrate to you how well Caring Corners work. In the pictures, you will see a tale of two squashes. One squash was tapped lightly on the corner. The other squash was hit, with some force, on the Caring Corners side. Look at my pictures and see the aftermath. The sad-faced squash with the corner-wound in his head? Bad. The squash who might have a bump but who avoids a huge gash? Happy! In an edit, I will take a video of this simulation in action with something shaped more like a head. You can get the picture, though. There are several products on the market that protect babies (and adults) from sharp corners--Caring Corners is certainly not the first. I just like them way better than other products I have tried because they were so easy to install and are fairly inconspicuous. In the interest of full disclosure, I received this product for free or at a discount in exchange for my honest, unbiased review. Thus far, these have been installed for approximately two months with no problems, but if something changes I will update my review in the future.
