How We Test
Every safety product on this site has been tested in real homes with real toddlers who are determined to break things.
Between David’s household and Brian’s family, we’ve tested gear in real conditions. Real homes. Real kids. Real challenges. We test for durability, usability, and whether a grandparent can figure it out without reading the manual.
Our benchmark: If your 18-month-old can outsmart it in 10 minutes, it doesn’t make the list.
