The latching device is a bit cumbersome. There are other brands that make the same quality gate for the same price that offer a better latching device.

ive had this gate 4 about 3 weeks, it was bought 4 my 2yr old and 1 1/2yr old. my 2yr old figured out the lock in mins so he can come and go easy. it keeps the baby safe even when he climbs on it. the gate is sturdy and the door is helpfull.

This was easy to set up, has held up to a lot of hard use and kids climbing on it. Overall I wish we had gotten it much sooner, and I wish we could have picked it up in a store instead of having to order it.

After reading some of the reviews I thought this would be hard to set up. It actually took less than 15 minutes to make set this up. It really needs to be permanent to be sturdy. It was only 4 screws. Once the screws were in place it is great.

We shopped at several stores for this type of gate and they wanted 2x's or more for it. The gate was easy to install and it looks great. We bought a 2nd gate because we loved the 1st one. This was a really good buy.

Its good in that it takes adults a little time to figure it out, and although our babies are so smart from birth, it will be a while before they figure out the operation. I find it quite safe.

We are very happy with this gate! It was a great price. We keep it at the top of the stairs so our kids stay upstairs and it does the job and is very easy to open and walk through

Confusing complicated design that isn't exactly snap in and snap out. If you want to put it up and keep it up I would recommend it, but for portability I'd say look for some other solution.

We're pretty happy with the gate, the only thing we didn't like was the bar across the bottom is really easy to stub your toe on. Besides that, fits great and seems pretty baby proof so far.

Bought for my nephew because he gets into everything. It took him just a day, ONE day to figure out how to open this gate. Also the locking mechanism is a little tricky, make sure to push hard down on the clip.
