Easy to set up & adjust - did it myself in about 5 minutes. Only a couple of minor complaints - the latching mechanism is a little difficult to open one-handed, which can happen often if you're carrying a child or laundry, etc. However, it is definitely manageable & will be even harder for my grandchild to figure out as she gets older, which is a plus, so for me the pro & con of the latch cancel each other out, LOL. The only other minor complaint is that the opening itself is a little narrow for a plump grandma to go straight through comfortably - if I walk straight through, it IS wide enough, but my jeans scrape the bars on either side, so I usually turn slightly sideways to save wear & tear on my pants. Not a huge deal, but just letting people know. The gate is DEFINITELY very sturdy & will last well into the toddler years, & very reasonably priced. I'm pleased with the purchase & would recommend to others. I ordered this online on a Friday night & received on the next Wednesday, well within the stated delivery & exceeding my expectation.

I ordered 4 in total to block my bedrooms. I ordered 2 and tried them out. I ordered them to block my dogs from going into my bedrooms. I have 8 grandchildren the youngest is 4 I taught them how to open and shut the gates to keep my two dogs out. They learned quickly and the gates have worked out amazing for my needs. So after the test run I order 2 more gates and love them. Easy to use I did not use the mounts or extra piece. I tried on one but I think the gate is much sturdy without the extra piece. I originally had it set up in the hallway with the mounts and extra piece that was a nightmare the kids kept knocking it down. Afterwards a did notice I may have put the mounts on backwards. So this may have been my fault.

I bought this gate because it was the cheapest "easy open" gate I could find. However, it is HAZARDOUS for children. My 4-year-old son got his finger caught in the latch (there are multiple areas on the latch that can easily pinch) and had to be taken to the ER to get stitches. So saving $15 on the gate ended up costing us a ridiculous medical bill.

We have purchased 3 of these gates. With a newborn and a 6 year old they have come in very handy. Our 6 year old can use these gates without any help. They are easy to install, easy to use, and durable. We have 2 dogs, and the gates keep them out of the kids' rooms. They are also more affordable than the other options we considered.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gate is definitely the best baby gate I have, and I have 5 others, all different brands. I love that its a metal tension rod, as compared to wood or plastic. My favorite feature is that it has plastic pieces you screw into the wall with a plate piece to prevent the tension rods from slipping or being pushed forward by your baby. There's nothing at all that I dislike about it, I am 100% satisfied with this baby gate and will be recommending it to all my mom friends and they can see it for themselves when they come over for a play date.

I am very happy with my regalo gates. I bought two gates to block off my kitchen and play room and confine our dog, mixed breed coon hound to the two rooms. The gates work fine and are doing the job. Installation was easy and secure and does not require any equipment other than your hands to tighten the parts that go on the wall. one opening is 40" and the other is 39", so we had to use the extension piece for both. the gates would not cover an opening any larger. price at Walmart was excellent. the gates were about half the price of a gate that I returned to Home Depot. delivery was also fine.

I have owned two similar gates of another brand and they came with a little tool to tighten the gate in place. I feel like that made a huge difference because with the Regalo gate you just had turn the knobs. As a result my six year old niece accidentally knocked the gate over. Additionally, although I haven't had any problems with it yet, I feel like the latch is much cheaper than the other two gates I've had. I'd probably go with the Summer brand if I were to need another gate.

I bought this baby gate to keep my LO out of my daughter's room since the cat box is in there. I originally had up one of the little wooden gates which worked just fine, but every so often, my daughter would trip climbing over it! It was also a pain for me to lift my legs over it while holding the baby if I needed to go in there. I knew I wanted one that swung open for easy access! I compared a couple on the walmart website and liked the reviews better on this one. It was easy to install and it's easy to use for the whole family. Right now our kitty is young, tall and lanky so she can fit through the bars.. I'm wondering if when she gets bigger and doesn't fit, if she will have an easy time jumping it or not! That is my only concern about the gate! I definitely recommend the gate, and the price is wonderful! As parents, everything is so pricey.. you don't have to spend extra money to get a good gate, this one rocks.

Better than I expected it to be since it is so much cheaper than other brand gates. I use this gate for the entrance to my kitchen & it serves its purpose well. The opening is small so I wouldnt recommend it to someone that is large. I would say the munchkin gate I have that is very similar to this one is for sure sturdier than this gate so I'm glad I have that one over the stairs & not this one. This gate would be good over the stairs if you rarely will be opening & closing it. Overall I'm happy with it & have been using it for about 4 months now.

Babysitting our granddaughter has meant a considerable dollar investment to adapt our home for her safety. Like many others these days, we became grandparents later in life than expected and no longer feel safe trying to climb over a gate multiple times a day. This product met both needs, lower price and safe access. This gate is very easy to install, is adjustable for multiple opening sizes, has a closure that can be either easily opened with one hand or more securely locked for older children. All-in-all, I am more than pleased with this purchase.
