Just wondering if anyone else has a problem with the plastic latches on the garbage can drawer, & dish drawer breaking easily? Has anyone found any kind of latch that works better?

I replaced the plastic with 2 of these, one on each side of the trash drawer & I put 3 of them evenly spaced on the pantry door, holds very well. As other plastic ones break they will also be replaced.

Yes, I've replaced a number of these latches, I got a 10 pack of them from Amazon. The replacements seem to last, not sure if the OEM ones were badly made or they were not installed correctly (not matched up on each side). They always fail on the "C" catch side.
