Elf Star Foam Edge Protector

I was very eager to try this foam edge protector by Elf Star. I have a very active toddler in my home and his safety is my number one priority.

There is one particular shelf that concerns me the most. It is a shorter book shelf that I sit my television on. When my oldest boy was younger he was running around the living room with a blanket on his head. He couldn't tell where he was going and his head hit the corner of that shelf. I figured since he had that thick blanket it probably didn't hurt but once I uncovered him, blood was just squirting out of his head.

It scared me half to death and ever since that corner always worried me. Now that my youngest son is just about the right height to come in direct contact with that edge, I was happy to have the opportunity to try this foam edge protector.

I really like this product because it is customizable. You can use it on edges or corners and cut it to the length you need. It comes with industrial strength 3M double side tape. This tape is pretty sticky so you shouldn't have any problem in that area. However, I will warn you. When I went to take the foam off, it took some paint along with it. So keep that in mind.

I'm pretty satisfied with this product. It makes my home feel more safe for my little one. I don't have to worry about that sharp edge. If only I had it a few years ago my oldest boy could have avoided that scary and painful incident.

If you are interested in learning more about this product or purchasing some for yourself you can find it on Amazon. It currently sells for $8.49 and that's for a 6.5ft roll like you see in the picture above. It also comes in several other colors such as grey, brown, black, off white, green and pink.
