It's good, very tall. I don't care for the latch because it's a little complicated but if you bought this for sneaky smart older toddlers then this might actually be a great thing. Keeps my giant puppy in the kitchen but my cats can still jump it as they please which is exactly what I wanted

I have a loft-style condo; my bedroom area has an opening but no door. I've tried everything to keep the cats out and nothing has worked until this baby gate! It's tall enough that they don't even attempt to jump over it (2 of my cats are 1 year olds, 1 is 8 years old). Though they are unable to get through the spaces between the bars, a smaller cat or kitten could probably squeeze through. Years ago I had a plastic gate which cost as much as this metal one, and it was flimsy and cheap looking. Plus the gate opened the entire length of the gate which made it VERY flimsy. This gate has a narrower opening, and is supported well on both sides, so it will never move when you are walking through the gate. A real bargain for the price, especially considering it is a sturdy metal. Highly recommended.

The overall construction of the gate is very good. Solid and sturdy. Assembly takes about 3 minutes. Instructions look kind of intimidating at first but once you get started they are really simple and on point. One complaint is the space adjusters. The bolts with rubber feet that thread/screw out of the gate frame to take up any extra space between the gate and the wall. They look like they thread into the gate frame, and they should, but that's not how they are designed. The hole in the gate frame for the adjusters is just that, a hole, not threaded. Instead the adjusters, which are long bolts with a rubber foot that goes against the wall, simply fit into a hole in the gate frame, then a plastic adjuster on the bolts, threads against the gate frame and pushes the adjusters out and against the wall. If the adjuster bolts have to be pushed out of the hole in the gate frame more than about an inch, they wobble and move. Not just a little bit, but a significant amount. If your opening requires the adjuster bolts to be threaded out more than that, I would suggest placing a small block of wood between the rubber feet and the wall to help decrease how far out the adjuster bolt sticks out of the gate frame. Once you do that, or if your opening is just wide enough that the adjuster bolts don't have to be threaded out very far, then the gate is nice and solid and sturdy. Super easy opening mechanism with a safety lock to hold it in place if necessary.

The only thing I liked about this gate was that it was tall gate. But with that being said, my 3 year old did figure out how to open it properly with no issues the next day after installling it hence defying the purpose of having the gate. I have another gate over the kitchen that was installed for over a year with no issue doing great. This product in my opinion definitely needs a better locking mechanism. I had to tie the handle with a ribbon so they don't open it. Hate the hussle of returning but may need to.

I LOVE this thing. I dont use it for a baby though I have 3 dogs who I use it for. One is a shih Tzu and the other two are husky's. Theyre puppies so they cant get through it or over it. I will update when they are full grown but for now ABSOLUTELY YES !

Regalo is the best baby gate brand in my opinion. Won't buy any others from here on out. Had an E v n f l o and S u m m e r both break. This was after 3 years but the Regalo is still holding strong so we bought all new Regalo's to replace the others.

The metal is warped so the gate doesn't close all the way like it's supposed to. also the only way to open and close the gate is to take it off the wall.... so it's pretty much worthless. and dangerous to have around young children. very very poor quality item.

this is our 2nd gate we love it

Keeps my kids outta the kitchen

Works perfect
