Lol. This sounds like my house. My spouse and my nephew (who lives with us) cannot for the life of them ever close any kitchen cabinet doors. They both always leave them ajar, never leaving them fully opening but never fully closing them. It drives me nuts.


Do the cabinets have those magnets or latches that have an annoying sound? Some people avoid the "hit" and leave them slightly ajar.


Spending a Saturday putting soft-close hinges on every cabinet door in my house was one of the best quality-of-life investments ever.


Even just installing those stick-on rubber bumpers makes a huge difference. A soft, satisfying "thunk" when you close a cabinet door rather than a horrible bang/clatter.


Oh.my.god.

Marriage saved.


I had to consciously decide to find it cute.

It’d cause too much conflict otherwise!
