## Description

Package included: 2 X Soft Close Gas Struts

Review: Worked like an charm on my toy box! - I wanted to get a little support for the lid of my sons Toybox and was a little unsure which struts to go with. I saw some mixed reviews on these especially regarding installation so was hesitant but went with them first anyway. Installation took about 20 minutes total for both struts. I probably could just installed one and been done, but the lid is fairly heavy and I was worried about it slamming down if someday it failed. Installation was simple. For what it’s worth, the hardest part about it was converting the measurements on the instructions from millimeters to inches. I adjusted them to hold the lid open to just over 90*, and it still fully closes at a slow rate so any pinched fingers shouldn’t have much of any force behind it. If you just tap it shut, it takes 5+ seconds for the lid to actually close which is great. Even when I only had the first strut installed, it closed a little bit faster but it was still at a relatively safe speed for my application.
Review: Works Perfectly ! - I purchased these struts for a toy box I built for my kids. The lid weighs about 20 pounds. They arrived without any instructions. I searched online and then remembered desertcart had some instructions on where to attach the brackets. They work perfectly! I had one small adjustment to make (see picture). I tried using 1 strut only, but didn’t like how the lid was closing. Adding the second strut makes it better (see video).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked like an charm on my toy box!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ EASY INSTALL, GREAT RESULTS
*by A***R on 27 December 2020*

Very easy to install and very good results. I used these on a relatively heavy lid (25 lbs) and the lid takes about 15 seconds to close. It closes very softly. I have seen a lot of negative reviews for this product saying they are flimsy and difficult to install. This is not correct. The most important thing to note is to make sure that the struts are vertical when the lid closes, we want the forces to be applied to the strong axis. If you have the struts angled or horizontal like some of the pictures on these reviews then they will likely underperform and break because the forces are being applied along the weak axis. Also, dont attach the struts directly next to the hinges on the lid. Ever tried to open a heavy door by pushing right next to the hinges? Doesn't work well. When attaching the struts, attach to the lid first, then extend the strut fully and mark the location to attach the bottom of the strut about an inch short of the full length of the strut. Last thing...make sure the black casing is up and the smaller, chrome portion is down.
