A nice light and low-stress solution, the only risk (as already
mentioned previously in the archives) is that the door could potentially
slam down on unsuspecting fingers if not closed in a controlled manor.
I'm curious to see what the factory is going to offer in their retrofit.

can
see from the listed web site: it is very cheap, fast & easy to install.
Since it is some distance from the hinge it puts less pressure on the
hinge
as well as the door when open & no pressure when the door is closed.
These

stores.
