This gate was easy to install and I like the locking mechanism. I bought this for my dogs, because my pug figured out how to open my last locking gate. This is a lock he can't move with his nose, so the dogs will stay where I want them. This also keeps my 2 year old grandson from letting the dogs out and having a " free for all" in my living room. Works great for both dogs and kids.

it is good for the price.even though not that good as other brands. the way to open is kind of fussy,sometimes, i just close it at the position without l;ocking it, cause my son is keeping on go in and out too trouble to lock it everytime.but it do does its work to block the way to kichen and keep the baby safe. if you donot want to spend much on a safety gate, this is a very good choice,highly recommended.

I bought this gate to keep my little one from getting into the dog food in the kitchen. I like this gate because it fits where other gates don't because we have thick modleing. It was very easy to install. My little guy like to stand up and shake the gate to let me know he wants to be attached at my hip. I thought it was durable because the gate never moves. I'm happy with my purchase and would recommend this product to any mommy!

This gate seemed great, however, I had to take it back to Walmart because it doesn't fit the door as it says it will in the description. Says it fits doorways up to 39", our door is 36". When my husband and I put the gate in the door (using the extender) the gate was too tight for the door to swing open. But, when we took the extender off the tension rods were spaced too far from the gate to the wall to be effective. It did seem like a sturdy gate, but your doorway needs to be smaller than 36". It was tall and could probably be opened with one hand if it fit the doorway correctly. We ended up going with another gate that you can adjust the width instead of using tension mounted.

I purchased for a dog gate. It went up in minutes, have used it for 2 weeks now and is still tight. The gate is wide enough for my husband who is 6', 265# to pass thru. Our gate is installed in a standard door opening, resting on the floor. Very satisfied with the quality of the metal construction, the ease of installation, and the way it operates.

I love it! Not wasting $ on those wooden ones ever again. No more climbing over the darn things. The rental I live in has uneven door ways and the bar on the wooden gates would either break or not tight enough and my baby would pull it down hurting himself. So glad I bought this. Definitely worth it.

I purchased this product online from Walmart.com, and had it shipped free to my local store. It was easy to setup in my house, and is exactly what I expected for the price. It does the job, without being over priced. With a new baby, I have a million other ways to spend money now (diapers and formula). It works very well, and will even be sturdy enough for the top of stairs.

I would recommend this gate for a friend that needed a semi-permanent step through gate. The setup of the gate is easy, but will go much faster with a second set of hands. My 8 year old help me install the unit. The instructions list the included wall cups as optional if you don't have the gate installed at stairs. I would recommend using them regardless. The gate felt much more secure with the cups in place. I had to install this gate over a wider opening. (41 inches) The compression screws were extended too far, which led to a flimsy mounting. I added two, two inch shims on either side of the gate and now it is very sturdy and solid. An eight year old and six year use the gate effortlessly. Buy this gate if you need a sturdy gate in a narrower opening. 33 inches or less would be my recommendation.

This gate is very nice looking and a good value. It is a little hard to install. You need to make sure the pressure gate is very tightly fit before it can work. You will need at least two people for this. But once you have it installed properly it works perfectly!

I purchased this DESPITE several reviews telling me not to. I have a 35-36" in opening #the walls are not completely level and we have baseboards#. In general, assembly via tension was super easy. I had no issues with figuring out how to install it. Without the extension it comes with the gate would not stay in place because the tension was way too loose, so I installed the extension. With the extension it BARELY fit on the drywall #wouldn't install into the baseboards#. Now, I have it installed but because of the baseboards we have to step over the bottom bar which is approx. 3 inches off the ground. Not a major deal, but when hauling laundry it's just one more thing I have to think about. It's also a pain because it's at the top of the stairs. It seems fairly secure- My son is only crawling at this point so he will test it out sooner or later. If we need to use the hardware mounting we will, but wanted to test it before drilling; and it's a good thing because we're going to keep it where it is for now, but move it later. Then we will invest in a more expensive one that fits in the doorway better so we don't have to step over the bar anymore. But for now it works. I think for the price it's a good gate. I wouldn't buy this if you have baseboards and similar measurements 35" or 36". But, if it's a few inches larger or smaller this should work even with baseboards.
