My 21 month old had this figured out in literally 3 minutes. It was installed Monday evening and dismantled the next morning and I ordered another gate... I would not recommend this gate if you think you are going to keep your toddler confined by it...A dog is a different story...this would be a good pet gate...if your dog can figure it out, you should take him on David Letterman, but otherwise... I think it is misleading for stores to carry this as a childproof gate...should be under the pet gate category only...

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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This easy step safety gate is a great product. It fits into the doorway perfectly. Doesn’t knock over easily. Helps to keep the kids in the room or out of the room that is being blocked off. Very easy to set up and use. I would highly recommend.

It servers the purpose, but I think the lock should be a little stronger.

Easy to set up. Works great.

wish the door opening was wider but other than that it great 👍

A lot of assembling but very simple

Easy to setup and works perfectly to keep my toddler out of certain places

parts are bent or not connecting correctly

Easy to install. Opens and closes smooth. Good gate
