So well built, this is an heirloom piece that will outlast me, for sure

This door jammer is super well built and extremely sturdy.

Much sturdier built than the cheap ones I looked at in stores.

Extremely well built and very much worth the extra money.

This jammer is heavy and made of solid steel, there's no rubber parts to it, no pins to keep it locked, and you can tell by holding it that it's a quality product.

All steel, well constructed, easy to set up and take down when you need to use the door.

Heavy steel, solidly built like a bulldog, attractive, simple and easy to use, and every inch of it -- from the part that cradles the knob, to the bar, to the paint, to the latch and the thick, heavy teeth, to the

Very heavy, solid steel construction, not cheap aluminum.

It is solid steel, with a very thick and waffled rubberized coating

Easy to use but heavy duty home safety for a reasonable price

So far worth the price due to the steel used and the latching device to adjust to the door.

$50 might seem like a little bit of money to go to this much trouble for, but in this economy we all better make sure we get what we pay for and at the best price

Worth the price to know the door is more secure from break-in

That's a small price to pay, and well worth the extra $30 or so

I paid more than others but feel security of family is worth the best.

We appreciate the greater security we have now that we have the Buddybars.

My Wife and I recently wanted to boost our security in our apartment

It would barely budge...this is a great extra security net for your home

I would recommend this to anyone who feels like they need some more security.

Although it's quite expensive compared to the others, it's worth my money

If money is no object, buy the Buddy; it is a bit more robust than the Master at what it's supposed to do.

Don't waste your money on the cheaper versions that won't do the job

I asked a contractor about it and he told me this was a very good item and will keep someone from breaking down the door.

This item has a true rubber foot, not plastic, like the cheap ones.

This item even though a little expensive is a great item.

This item even though a little expensive is a great item.

Unlike cheaper, similar items, this is thick and HEAVY and can make a person feel very secure in the home.

The BuddyBar would be the last thing dislodged if the doorjamb,door, and knob failed

Wow, this thing is so impressive i'm ordering a second one after I finish this review

One more very important thing for good security... the screws that hold the door hinges.

This thing is worth every penny once it's used properly.

Which was a good thing because I don't think I could have handled it if it was stuck & I couldn't get out in the condition that I was in emotionally

Very easy to deploy and 100% solid quality construction.

The construction of the Buddybar seems really solid as opposed to some flimsy plastic versions.

Fantastic product, top notch construction, easy to use, and fast shipping.

solid and heavy, high quality feel, you will feel very secure with this against your door.

If you are hesitant about the price, do not be... the quality of this thing is worth it but more importantly, the security of you and your family

I looked at all that was out there and was dismayed by the flimsy quality offered

It's heavy and of great quality; it performs just as described; I feel completely safe knowing it's in place each night.

We use it on carpet and took turns trying to kick in the door as hard as we could.

I am going to purchase two more of them and throw away the two flimsy jammers that I have.

but my wife another one if this one was stolen of broken (as unlikely as that seems).

Do not buy a cheap imitation, this is the door jammer you want protecting your family

I do highly recommend this door jammer over all the rest on the market today, you won't be sorry!Very well made!!!

Then I ordered the Buddybar after reading numerous good reviews about it and I can say that I love it!The Buddybar feels extremely strong, durable, and has a good weight to it

For the ultimate security, I bought this BuddyBar to lock the door in place, and thwart a burglar from possibly breaking a window on the door and reaching around to unlock the door

We use it on carpet and took turns trying to kick in the door as hard as we could.

and the Buddybar will buy me some time jammed against my bedroom door.

but my wife another one if this one was stolen of broken (as unlikely as that seems).

Since I exit the house through the garage, I keep the bar secured to the door if I'm away.

Get this bar set at between 12 - 18" inches from the door and it works like crazy

This bar is heavy duty (all steel) and no comparison to the cheap kick bars found at local retailers

My neighbor has a very inexpensive, slightly built bar for her door.

And to a point, both bars would just knock away from the door with a sideways force anyway

Of course I could have kicked the door hinges or something else, but the point is that I have found this bar to be far more effective than the plastic-tipped alternative jams which have not held up to muster because of weak plastic joints or a too-slippery rubber bottom

It's easy to justify the price when you compare the quality materials to cheaper plastic models.

This is s very well made product

The top of the buddybar does not fit under the handle as well as it should.

I was originally going to purchase a cheaper version but

I'm glad I didn't buy the cheaper version from another brand

The cheaper version just slides across the tile floor when you open the door, however, the Buddyjammer can be used on tile or carpet floor.

Do you want to trust a $20 Master Lock version with a plastic tip, or the one that just rings an alarm when someone touches the metal doorknob?

This thing will lift and break your door knob right off

if your in an area that may put this Buddybar to the test, you may also want to invest in a strong door knob (which really shouldn't cost to much at all).But with this bar, a steel entry door, with a good/solid door knob, this setup will give you plenty of time to dial 911, or get yourself ready for an intruder....hopefully both!Really though, this should be enough to discourage the wouldbe intruder to give up, and leave

Just make sure you have a good door knob that is tight and this should hold up against a determined crook.

If you put it on too tight you may damage your door knob

I initially gave this a bad review because it damaged a door knob because I cranked it too tight.

The top of the buddybar does not fit under the handle as well as it should.

You could shake the handles and the doors would shake, too.

This is a heavy steel bar (about 8 pounds) and possibly strong enough to break your door handle if installed improperly, so be cautious when installing

It's easy to justify the price when you compare the quality materials to cheaper plastic models.

I chose the more expensive model because of my wife's fragile condition which makes it far easier for her to use this model

I chose this door jammer over cheaper models after reading negative comments about questionable durability and construction of cheaper models.
