Description
Make your home a safer place for your child to play in and explore with the Safety 1st Outlet Cover with Cord Shortener. Help keep curious little hands away from potentially-dangerous electrical outlets with this outlet plug cover. Covering the entire outlet, the cover keeps excess appliance cords off the floor, storing up to four feet of cords, depending on thickness. Easily remove and replace the outer cover with the child-resistant dual-press operation by simply pressing both side tabs simultaneously, while gently pulling the cover away. Along with appliances like lamps, televisions, and computers, the outlet cover works great with standard-size phone chargers, safely winding their cables out of sight. This kit includes one replacement wall plate and cover. A flat-head screwdriver is needed for installation. Remove the cover to clean, wiping it with a damp cloth and allowing it to dry. Safety 1st believes parenting should have fewer worries and more joyful moments, so you enjoy every “first” your child experiences.

Q: What color is the plastic? White or almond color?
submitted by ColoMermaid - 4 years ago
A: Hello there! Thank you for your question. We are unsure of what inventory retailers have (older or newer items), however, we can advise these are currently usually made in an off white/beige color.
submitted byDorelJuvenileSupport - 4 years agoBrand expertA: The picture looks white so I was surprised when I received it and its ivory. The back plate is white but the cover is very ivory/beige. Disaapointed because it looks bad on my white walls.

We use these for outlets that we keep things always plugged into, like the baby monitor above the crib. They take a few minutes to set up and are kind of bulky but I like them. They seem secure enough for my wild baby.
Love this!

Easy to install, great price and perfect for baby proofing! It’s very durable and doesn’t break easily compared to others!
Only works on standard outlets with thin cord

Most of the cords in my nursery are box plug, not the small two prong outlets. This allows a box plug to be plugged into the top outlet but of course then it covers the bottom outlet. Also, a thicker cord (like the one on my child-safe electric heater) doesn't fit in the slot to come out from the case.
Not for Decora style outlets.

Works great if you have old style outlets but doesn't work with Decora or GFCI style. An update would be nice.
Needs to be bigger

I am on the fence about this, it works great for generic two prong plugs. It is to small to sit flat on the outlet and will not allow the box plug on our baby monitor or router to plug in without the top attached. It is also to small for the three pronged basic tv plug. I wish it was flatter and the top was wider.
I am extremely Happy

My 3 year old was unplugging and trying to plug back in, he is my Hudini child. I have gotten numerous child locks and guards. This one was most useful!!

Does not fit a cord for a power strip. Would only fit a very thin cord that does not require grounding.

Really hard to get the cover on and cords wrapped around. Easy to screw into the outlet at least. There had been different pictures on this listing and that is what I had been expecting. The other ones sort of open up from the center

Packaging and pictures online deceptive. The cover is a cream/off white and not bright white. Stands out like an eyesore.

Kla - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
Great idea, not very functional. Does not work for regular thickness cords, only works if you have a super thin cord. There just isn’t space to wrap up much of the cord inside and have the cover still fit on.
Works great!

Good but damages cords

Martha - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
They work well but the big problem is that 1. They’re so hard to pinch and take off which is good for a toddler but not for a parent 2 it damages the cord to anything plugged in. It ruined my phone charger and space heater cord! It also doesn’t fit my windo ac plug in. I wouldn’t recommend because it’s dangerous that it cuts through your wires. I was careful and there’s no way avoiding it

Only fits very thin cords. Bought for desk that baby likes to crawl under, but laptop charger and monitor cords are too big to fit.
Deep Enough

Amber B - 3 years ago, Verified purchaser
Love that this is deep enough to fit over the plug for our Nanit baby monitor. It sticks out about 2.75 in from the wall and every other cover I found wasn’t big enough. This covers just enough so my toddler can’t unplug it anymore.
