The only sum that matters

Pack price divided by the number of pieces, nothing added; the bar is that figure drawn to scale, longest for the dearest piece. Options with no active listing are left out of this list, because a count you cannot buy has no price per piece.

What it is

Self-adhesive silicone bumpers for doors, cabinets and furniture edges, with 1 mm double-sided tape thick enough, the maker says, to hold on a slightly rough wall. Two counts are sold, 6 and 10, and the arithmetic between them runs the wrong way — which makes this the shortest recommendation in the catalogue.

6 cost $8.99, which is $1.50 each. 10 cost $17.99, which is $1.80 each. The larger box is 30 cents a bumper more expensive, and the consequence is worth stating in full: two 6-packs come to $17.98, a penny less than one 10-pack, and give you 12 bumpers instead of 10. There is no configuration in which the 10-pack is the right purchase. One number on the listing needs disarming: the 3.2 by 3.2 by 3.2 inches in the specification is the package, not a bumper — a 3-inch silicone lump on a cabinet door would be furniture in its own right. The dimension that is stated for the product itself is the 1 mm tape, and that is the part that decides whether these stay up.

In use

Fits: cabinet doors that bang, fridge doors, toilet seats, bed frames and table corners — anywhere a soft stop is wanted without hardware. Does not fit: dusty, greasy or freshly painted surfaces. Adhesive pads fail at the surface, not at the pad.

What the maker states

Below is the manufacturer’s own description of the product, quoted from the listing. It is their claim, not our test.

  • Thickened adhesive selected after rigorous testing becomes thicker, stronger and stickier without peeling off. Its thickness reaches 1mm, so even if the wall is a little rough, it can be firmly attached to it. Removable double-sided tape leaves no residue.
  • These bumpers have wide applications of various places in home such as the door, cabinet, cupboard, refrigerator, table corner, bedside, bidet and toilet seat. Not only can you avoid the hitting damage but also hide existing damage and prevent banging.

What 2,031 ratings can and cannot tell you

4.8 on 2,031 ratings is the highest average on this shelf, and for an adhesive product that is a more interesting result than it looks: sticky pads that let go are one of the most reliably complained-about categories anywhere, so a top score across two thousand buyers is real evidence about the tape rather than about the silicone. The caveat is that adhesion depends on the wall as much as the tape, and a rating cannot tell you what your wall is like.

The average is the retailer’s own figure across every option in this family, not a score of ours, and no review is quoted or paraphrased anywhere on this site.

Questions about this one

Which pack should I buy?

Two 6-packs. They cost $17.98 against $17.99 for a single 10-pack, and you get 12 bumpers rather than 10.

How big is one bumper?

The listing does not give a per-bumper size — the 3.2 inches in the specification is the package. The stated figure is the 1 mm thickness of the adhesive tape.

Will the tape damage paint?

The maker describes it as removable double-sided tape that leaves no residue. That is their claim; on old or thin paint, test one first.
