Great pieces! October 2, 2009

These little adapters are amazing. They take less than 2 minutes per door to install. You will definitely need a flexible drill bit adapter to drill the pilot hole in the cabinet. The adjustability on these things are great. I bought enough for all my cabinets in my kitchen and bathrooms. When a friend of mine saw them, he ordered 2 dozen for his house as well. Definitely recommended. Just as a note, if you get the ones from Cabinetware, they come with the spacers and screws.

These hinges are fantastic. No more kitchen cabinets and doors being slammed. I love them. I would definitely recommend these to anyone who has kids. The price was also very reasonable.

I ordered a couple to try them out. After skeptically installing them I must admit they performed well. No more slammed doors or load noise when the doors close. Push the door and let it go, it will do the rest! The are engagemnet is adjustable. They are fairly easy to install and aren't as unsightly as I thought they would be. My only issue was trying to drill a pilot hole that was not on angle due to the tight corner. You should try to drill level if you can. Be advised screws are not included. Since the kitchen personnel(wife) likes it I will do the rest of the doors. Its a nice upgrade! Product gets 5 stars, installation 4 stars since the hole is not angled.
