My 2 year-old is already 36-37" tall so we were looking for a gate that was "taller" than normal. As for the price we found it cheapest through Wal-Mart and we could get it delivered to the local store for free which helped. Height-wise it is good and it seems sturdy. The things I don't like are that the door opening is small. It's not always easy to get through especially with a squirmy toddler. And he can push the gate over. I guess you can screw the thing to the doorway, but I really didn't want to do this. Oh, the other thing about it being taller is he can't see the latch to figure out how it opens. I would recommend it, but be prepared to put holes in your doorways/walls.

Seems to be a good gate. My daughter hasn't managed to destroy it in the first few days. It was fairly simple to install. The only issue is for stairs. There is no way to install the gate next to a hand railing. I am going to have to modify the bars to make room for the hand rail to fit. Otherwise, seems to be excellent.

Does not work for cats they can still jump over this. You can't carry items like laundry baskets though as you have to lift them over and that didn't work for my bad shoulders. I could get though but found it a little awkward but some larger people than I had more difficulty. I ended up buying a cheep wood screen door for my hall doorway as it still allows for air flow and that has worked really great for us! I thought I'd have to put plexiglass on the bottom but my cats amazingly haven't tried to tear up the screen and I've had it up 6mo.

Great quality! There price was reasonable. But. The doorway is VERY narrow. Both hubby and I have to go through side ways. I'm sure it was in write up, I guess it was just hard to imagine the narrowness. Love the tall height as well. The dog can't scale it like the other one we had. Good gate!!

Got this for my high energy larger breed dog to keep him away from roommate's cat who live in front half of apt. Great bc he cant jump it and I can easily walk through. Not too difficult to set up, though instructions arent the best. No tools needed beyond screwdriver. Can be taken down and moved to a new doorway. Should do only minimal damage to walls/doorway (just small holes) And the price of this compared to others was considerably lower yet it is extra high and sturdy. A great buy.

The door opening is 17 inches wide. 17 inches! That's the size of a laptop, my kids MacBookpro screen is 17 inches. Imagine trying to get through this thing if you have a backpack on. We will make it work because the price isn't bad, but I don't know how I'll lug groceries, baby bags, and whatever else through and forth.

So easy to install, but easier with a second set of hands and a power drill/electric screwdriver. There is a bar at the bottom though that is easy to trip on until you get in the habit of stepping over it. The entrance is a little narrow also, but still a great product. If you close the latch without locking it down, you can open and close with one hand.

We bought this gate to confine our small dogs (that jump high) while we are away. Our door-size was awkward--too wide for the gate alone and too narrow for the extension--so we had to be creative in making it work for us. We opted not to use the adjusters on one end to give us a better fit. Then we used trim work to keep it stable so that it wouldn't slip out of place. Overall, we are very please with the gate. It is easy to open and close and secure, once the release is locked into place it cannot be jolted open.

I purchased this to try to stop my cats from wandering upstairs and so far none have tried to squeeze through the bars. There is only one space possibly large enough and that is at the door and it would require lots of investigation and some major wiggling. So far so good. I also decided to not use the wall cups to keep from having to patch holes since my house is for sale and it still is very stable. The only minor problem is the gate is a little narrow and you need to be careful going through when carrying things. It is very easy to remove and put back though.

Our first gate did not keep our daughter as secure as we wanted, since she discovered how to climb it and we began to worry that she would fall and hurt herself. It is not possible for her to climb this gate since it has vertical metal bars. It is also too tall for her to reach the top and hang from (as though she were doing chin-ups), as she had also done with the first gate. It was definitely worth the time to wait for this gate to be delivered, since the price was much better than we had seen in other stores!
