Great Product!Review by smiley, 2010-01-31
I am so glad I purchased this product. It is more expensive than the other ones you see, but it is worth every penny. It took me about 30 minutes to install. The padding stays on securely even if our baby pulls on it. I feel much better about her being near the fireplace. Can't put a price on safety!!!
Works great even with extension
Review by A. Mckenna, 2009-05-12
This feels very solid even with the extension we used in it. Some products seem to get weaker with extensions, but this one seems fine. I'm not worried about our baby pulling it off like I would with an adhesive mounted pad. She uses it to pull herself up all the time, and it doesn't budge. Good product.
Safe and
Review by Smart Shopper, 2008-07-27
We bought this item when my daughter began to crawl. The instructions were clear, and it took my husband about 30 minutes to install the hearth guard. I was really impressed with how well the brown color matches our reddish brown brick. Also, the guard is very secure and doesn't budge when I pull on it. It has been especially helpful since our little girl began to pull up on the hearth, and we have avoided several bumps on the head by having this in place. I would highly recommend this hearth guard to anyone with a raised brick hearth. I am pleased with the purchase, even though I thought it was a little pricey at the time I bought it.
Overall, pleased with this hearth guard
Review by J. Evert, 2008-07-16
Installation was pretty easy, no complaints there. It clamps on pretty firmly, our little one (9-1/2 mos) has not been able to pull it off, so far. It's perhaps a tad on the pricey side (once you add the extension, as we needed for our long hearth), but that's my only complaint. Overall, if you want peace-of-mind with the sharp corner on your hearth, this guard will give it to you.
The only hearth guard you should consider.
Review by Leeese, 2007-09-25
I bought the Kids Edge Hearth Pad WITH Metal Frame (Taupe Color) and installed it on a hearth 77" wide and 20" deep. Installation took 30 minutes, tops, going at a leisurely pace, and was easy for even someone not considered very handy. There is only one section of padding that you have to cut yourself (the majority of the padding is already permanently attached to the metal frame.) The piece you cut goes directly on the front, so be very careful cutting the padding, or you will be able to see the mess at the seams. Also, be sure to read the directions -- if you simply measure and cut, you'll be disappointed; you need to add 3/8" (or even 1/2" to be safe) to the measured length before cutting. The covers for the SIDES of the hearth are separate attachments. They do come with their own metal frame pieces, which slide into the ends of the main metal frame to extend it, then you attach the padding. No cutting of the pad is needed for the sides IF your hearth depth is at least 18". Any less and you will have to cut them to fit. There is peel-off adhesive already in place on the inside of the padding, so there's no messy glue to deal with. These side pieces attach into the main unit quite sturdily, I was skeptical before installation, but impressed afterward. I highly recommend reading ahead in the instructions about the installation of the sides, so you don't get the unit completely installed BEFORE you realize you need to remove it entirely to do the sides. That was a small frustration when I installed mine, but not a huge setback. Also, be careful when removing the backing from the adhesive, on one section of mine, the adhesive came off with the backing -- remove ONLY the white part, the clear part that looks like double-sided tape IS the adhesive. This is truly the only hearth pad I would consider buying or ever recommend. The adhesive type pads come right off with the slightest tug and are useless, in my opinion. The metal frame makes all the difference. It is STURDY and is simply ingenious design -- two adults pulling on it didn't budge it in the slightest. Any baby or toddler could grab hold and use it to pull himself up with no problems at all (as my baby does frequently). I HIGHLY recommend this product. See my images in the product image gallery to see the unit installed and in use. What a breath of fresh air to buy something that actually delivers and does what it is supposed to do (and does it well.)
