I am so happy that I found this gate. I bought this to keep my dogs from getting into a bedroom that is sanctuary for my cats. The only drawback is that the cats can't slip between the metal grates, so I had to install the gate about 8" off the floor. So I still have to step over the bottom bar to get through the gate, but that's a big improvement over climbing over a standard baby gate.

I am really glad I got this gate. I had a different one that my 2 yr old would pull on and go upstairs. So I need one that he couldnt open at the bottom of the steps. It took a few minutes to set up and easy to open. No need to screw anything in and a great price. I ordered it Tuesday and got it today Friday. May end up ordering another one and would recommend this product to others.

This is a good gate if you don't want to use a hardware mounted gate. You just place it in the space you want and turn the four bolts until the rubber on each side is snugly against the wall. It took less than 10 minutes to install at the top of the stairs. It also comes with one extension so you can use it in a space of more than 3 feet. My only issue is with the size of the gate's opening; it is pretty small. A skinny person or child can get through walking forwards but it seems that anyone larger than average would have trouble getting through or would have to walk sideways to get through. Also noteworthy is that this isn't self-closing as some other models are. You will have to pull/push it shut behind you.

the gate only opens one way...so if you tend to forget that the entire gate will come down! Bought it to keep the little one off the kitchen as she is able be pretty creative and climb into places really fast...well...after a few hours of putting the gate into place she was able to open and close the gate one handed...better than the adults. SO I DISCOURAGE YOU FROM GETTING THIS GATE! Wish I would have gotten a different one.

Love this metal gate so far. It is so sturdy and strong! It does have the option to screw it into the wall but didn't do that. I have it in our hallway to keep the dogs from going into the bedrooms and bathrooms. I showed my kids how to lift it and its pretty easy. You can pull the red part back and then lift the top but we just leave the red part so all they have to do is lift it up. My one year old is figuring it out :) . With the red part latched it is harder to open so it would work for young kids but my 7 and 6 year old can do it. Overall Im happy with it. I had a issue getting it tight enough to close in the beginning but my handy husband fixed it :)

Bought this to keep my dogs out of my room without closing them off with the door. It is great. The gate is easy to open and close and if you have no children you don't need to lock it but it will still keep the gate shut. The dogs don't seem bothered that they are on the other side and my allergies are better for it.

This gate has been a life saver for me. Living in Florida it gets hot so I don't like to leave my dogs on the patio all day. With this gate I know that they are secure in my hallway (a wooden gate was torn apart by my 2-year old shepherd). Plus it is easy to open and close even for my 4-year old grandson. I would recommend this to anyone. It does take two people to set it up. But once it is up, it is very sturdy. Even with a 90 lb. dog jumping up.

So I have purchased this gate before and I love it. However, I live in an old house and nothing ever measures up. Well I measured the space of the doorway at the bottom and not the top. The top was about 1" too big for the gate. So I would recommend it but I had to return it cause didn't fit in the space. I love the one I have at the bottom of the stairway though!!

We really like this gate , in fact we purchased 2. LOVE the fact that it can be shut and closed with out closing the child proof lock so my 4 year old can get in and out of it , but if we lock it she can not get it open =) All in all a very good product.

Just because this gate is affordable doesn't mean it's cheaply made. I received this gate as a gift (I told the giver what I wanted), and love it! My strong-man of a 1yr old still has not gotten through it. He pushes, pulls, and rattles the heck out of it and it still stands. It even keeps my 130lbs doberman out! I used the wall mount cups as well, since they give more grip. I do recommend that you check the gate weekly (like the manufacturer says), since regular use *can* loosen it. In all, I love this gate so much, I'm going to be getting a third one this week. Definitely a good buy!
