This gate was exactly what we were looking for. We have a 2 1/2 year old potty trainer who needs access to the bathroom and a mobile 8 month old who we need to keep out of the bathroom. This gate solved our problems. I set up this gate and taught our 2yr old how to use it in less than 5 minutes. The gate is super easy to open, even in the latched position, so if you want to keep out an older toddler, this is not the gate for you, but it meets our needs perfectly. It's also just the right height so that our cats can still jump over it to get to other parts of the house.

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...

I purchased this product because my roommate was irritated that she had to keep her door shut due to my new puppy. I needed something metal and sturdy because I live in an old house with the big metal grate heater in the floor and it is right where I needed to put the gate. So far so good. It has put up wtih the heat and the swinging door is great and so easy to use. Roomate was happy. Anyways great buy if your looking for something like this. Definately worth the cost.

This gate is great and very easy to install. I use it for my stairs to keep my 1 year old from climbing up. I love that it is a tension gate and I didn't have to screw anything into the wall. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that the walkthrough doorway is pretty narrow, I wish it was a little bit wider. I will be purchasing another one soon for a doorway.

after searching for a reasonably priced baby gate i seen this one and liked that it opened easily, like a door, and by son cannot escape through or knock it down like he did with our previous gate, very sturdy and a great bargain! i just purchased the taller version of this model, same brand, for our kitchen. this is the only brand i will ever buy and i suggest it to everyone!

This gate was very easy to put up but make sure you check the measurements bc the gate extender made the gate way too big and it barely works as it. The screws are extended all the way out so it isn't as sturdy as our other gate but stairways are tricky to fit. The handle works by pulling the red button back to expose the end of a white handle that you lift up that pulls back the piece that allows the door to open and close. Requires two hands so it's not easy carrying a two year old. For the price and ability to step through, is good though. We paid twice as much for an easier to open gate.

I really liked this product, it works really well in my hallway. The only issues I have are: the bar that goes across the bottom of the gate is way too thick, my child and me and my husband have tripped over it. The other thing is: for being a child gate to contain children out of a certain area, it only took my two year old one day to figure out how to unlock and open the gate

i love this gate. i had several gates before, but they never stayed in place unless you put screws in your walls. i didn't like to do that, so when i saw this gate at my son's house, i bought two. keeps the grand children out of mischief and i have no worries they will be getting to my stairs.

15 YEARS AGO I BROUGHT HOME TWO MALE CHIUA'S RADAR AND BRUTUS. I BOUGHT THE WOODEN GATES FOR BABY'S THEY CHEWED THRU 5 SETS BEFORE THEY WERE OUT OF THIER "PUPPY" YEARS. MARCH 9TH I HAD TO MAKE THE HARDEST DISCISSION OF M LIFE AND PUT RADAR TO SLEEP, CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE. EVEN THO WE STILL HAD BRUTUS,WHO HAS ADDISONS, STAYS TO HIM SELF ALL THE TIME. MY HUSBAND SUPRISED ME THE DAY BEFORE EASTER HE HAD BROUGHT HOME TWO FEMALE RAT TERRIERS FOR ME TO CHOOSE FROM, I SUPRISED HIM BY KEEPING BOTH, THELMA AND LOUISE, THELMA THE RUNT AND LOUISE THE LAST BORN, WERE THE ONLY TWO LEFT FRIM THE LITTER, COULD NOT SPLIT THEM UP. I WENT TO WORK ON EASTER AND BEHIND THE SERVICE DESK WAS A RETURN THAT CAME IN THE NIGHT BEFORE FROM AN ONLINE PURCHASE, NO ONE HAD PUT IT OUT ON THE FLOOR BECAUSE WE DON'T CARRY THIS ITEM IN OUR STORE. I PURCHASED IT ON THE SPOT, GOT HOME 5 MINUTES IT WAS UP AND WORKING LIKE A CHARM. THAT DAY I WENT ON LINE AND MADE MY FIRST ONLINE PURCHASE FROM WALMART, BOUGHT ANOTHER ONE FOR THE OTHER ENTRANCE OUT OF OUR DINNING ROOM. SO THE GIRLS HAVE A BIG ROOM TO PLAY WHEN IT'S NASTY OUT SIDE, AND I DO NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE CHEWING UP AND SWALLOWING OR ESCAPING THRU THE GATE INTO AREAS THAT ARE NOT THERE SPACE.

We wanted something to block the dogs off from the kids rooms...to prevent chewed up toys....but still wanted the kids (preschool age) to be able to access there room without help. It worked!!! we just don't use the safety lock feature (gates still stay closed w/o it). everyone can get into there rooms without the chewing pups (and w/o mom having to drop everything and come and help). Gates are made of sturdy metal and ajust to fit wide door frames......Loooove the gates. they have helped us soooo much.
