Okay, so I was skeptical at first but these window bars are actually pretty great! The leaf design is cute and doesn't scream 'security device' which I appreciate.

The adjustable feature is a game-changer - my windows can stay cracked open just enough for fresh air but no one's breaking in. Installation took like 2 minutes tops.

That said, the single screw situation had me side-eyeing it at first. My husband ended up drilling an extra hole for stability (why don't they come with more screws??).

Way better than using random sticks or hockey sticks (yes, some reviews mentioned that lol). They look sleek in my sliding door track and give me peace of mind when I'm home alone.

Pro tip: MEASURE YOUR WINDOW FIRST! Saw some complaints about fit issues that could've been avoided with proper measuring.
