love the gate. I got it to use for my 3 1/2 year old's bedroom so she can't get out at night. my 6 year old can't even climb over it. when putting it together, i realized how horribly cheap the screws are, use your own because these ones will strip easily. so easy that it took one time of using my drill to get the screw in, and tried to get it out, nope, already stripped.

I really don't know what the other people who gave this gate good reviews purchased, but the regalo extra tall gate we purchased was a COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY. We bought it as an upgrade to our "typical" baby gate that our toddler was able to climb over. The delivery was quick, so can't complain there. But everything else, what a mess. First of all, the gate works on some sort of weird pressure system, where if you tighten it to fit in the door frame, the gate itself won't open. If you keep it loose enough for the gate to open, it can VERY easily be pushed out of the door frame. And our door frame is by no means an odd width. Secondly, the quality is RIDICULOUSLY poor. I bent areas of the metal but simply pushing the sides to fit in the door frame. AND the white paint started peeling off within MINUTES of using it. What a poorly constructed product. It obviously isn't safe for use with a child. Invest your money elsewhere!

If you need a tall gate like we did, you can't beat the price on this one anywhere (trust me, I've checked)! With it being pressure mounted it can' t take a lot of pushing without actually screwing the mounting cups to the wall, we were not able to use the cups for our particular application. But if you use the cups, I think it would be very sturdy. And it's really tall! We used it for a very high jumping dog and she can't come any where near the top! And the vertical metal bars means she can't climb it either!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I definitely had to wait but it was completely worth because it’s the perfect size and height for my baby and pets which I definitely love. I definitely didn’t worry about anything with this. It’s the best.

I have 3 kids and 2 have special needs so I need to be able to keep them in certain areas of the house to keep them safe. The other gates I have seen were way too small or flimsy. I needed something very sturdy and tall to keep my 7 year old at least somewhat contained. The problem is that he figured out how to open it with literally seconds. He looked at it from one angle then another and then opened it right up. I will be purchasing an alarm to put on it so I can tell if he opens it.

I really liked this gate because it is extra tall, and the slots are not spaced too big or too small. It was also very helpful with keeping the pets where they should be, especially at mealtimes. The only thing negative that I have to say would be that it was really rigorous to set it up, and the opening in the gate is not very wide at all. But I would still buy more for around the house!

I was really shocked at how tall this gate really was, but we love it. I used it in the doorway to my toyroom that leads into the kitchen. I run my own daycare and was concerned about this doorway because all my little ones love to try and hang out with me in the kitchen, and I am not graceful while I am cooking. This way it is tall enough for them to look through and not short enough for them to try and climb over it. Our Beagle puppy doesn't like it so much since she figured out she can jump things. Works great for us as a family, daycare and a pet owner. Love it! Highly recommend it! The only downfall is you have to screw it into the wall, but I have over looked that now that we have used it and has helped us out having it!

I bought this same one (different color) about two years ago. It's great. Easy to install, no screws or nails in the wall cuz it's pressure mounted. Main thing you should know is that it is not 36 inches tall. It's actually 41 inches tall. So it is extra tall. I don't know why they say it's 36. That's the max width. If you read further down on the description you'll see it says 36 by 41.

We are so happy with this baby gate! My daughter is only 1 but very tall for her age. I'm so glad I bought this gate because it's tall and extremely sturdy. I recommend it to all my family and friends. We recently had a chocolate Labrador come over for the day, and I was so happy we had the gate to keep the dog out of the baby's room.

This turned out to be the most wonderful gate ever to keep my little monsters (Jack Russell Terriors) from getting into areas I don't want them in. The height is great, they can't get close to the top. It seems to be wide enough for most doors. It comes with an extension piece, but I didn't need it. I was able to put this up in 10 minutes (without the added door frame supports), but I could have installed it even faster with a second set of hands. It is very stable. If you can't get it to work, then you probably don't have the end turn screws adjusted correctly. If you installed the included (round screw in holders) supports, I think it would also be useful for large dogs. Overall a great price and product.
