I needed an extra tall gate to keep my cat out of the baby room. This gate is wonderful. My husband had it set up in a few minutes. It is really tall, there is no way the cat is getting into the bedroom. It is really easy to open and close, after a few times I was able to do it with one hand. The price is really great and it is everything I expected. I am really glad I purchased this gate.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installation took only about 15 mins. Mark where you want the cups to go before putting in screws as they can move easily. Must be square to operate properly. Note, you will have screw holes left in door frame when you remove it, so if you have a rental or that will bother you when you are finished with it..

will not hold much weight because the pressure mounting system wont let you tighten it fully because the door will not open if u do. Bought it to keep dogs apart but the dogs start at 50 lbs so when they push on it or jump on it and pull the on the gate it pops open even when locked not just latched.its not worth the money in my opinion because you cant use it for larger dogs or children because they can move it from the doorway. although it maybe better used for stairs. dont know i didnt try it on a stairway

I bought this gate because it was so tall and it would screw into the wall because our walls aren't the same width all the way up so other gates didn't work. The gate has been a life saver for me, I only wish I'd gotten it sooner since my daughter is 19 months old. The only thing wrong with it is that two of the screws that came with it broke almost instantly into the wall and we had to use our own. If we hadn't had any here I would've given it a lower rating, but since we had some on hand it didn't set us back too much. As far as the gate itself, its very tall, sturdy, and my daughter loves it even though we thought she'd hate it. If it is ever open she has to go close it herself and she doesn't bother trying to run into the kitchen to mess with everything like she used to she just closes and opens the gate like a game, so it's helped especially with putting up groceries and things like that. Overall, gate is worth 5 stars, hardware is 1, but we made it work easily.

This is a nice looking gate. The opening is barely wide enough for an adult to pass through without turning. It is cheaply constructed and i regret buying it over another model I've purchased from Sam's. It would make an ok pet gate as long as you don't have a big jumpy dog. My 2 year old toddler also figured out how to unlatch and open it first 30 minutes installed. Less than 2 prolly can't get it but what's the point of it being so tall?

I purchased this gate to help keep my 8 week old puppy confined to the tiled areas of the house. The gate was easy to set up and install. I added rubber furniture coasters to go up against the wall to prevent marring the finish and to prevent slippage. They work well and I don't have to screw into the baseboards or the dry wall to install the plastic holders provided by the manufacturer. The gate works as advertised. It is the third one I have purchased and would do so again.

I have 3 big dogs that can easily jump over the standard height baby gates. This one is tall enough that they stay put. You can use the pressure only, but it will slide out if it is pushed on. The holders that screw in the wall must be used if baby or dogs are going to lean against it. It is metal, so no worries about it breaking like the smaller wood ones, also nice since dogs can't chew it up.

I bought one of these gates off another site then bought a second one from here. The height is perfect but the opening is so narrow everyone has to turn sideways to enter the room. It's not at all good being ONLY pressure mounted. I threw the screws and holders away on the first gate since I didn't think I'd need them for a standard doorway but you will need to install these...it's not an option like it states. It slips constantly but you can only tighten so much or the gate won't shut. The supposed 'rubber' grips are more of a plastic material(hence why it slips). When you shut the gate, you lower the lever to keep the gate closed, you push down to hear a click to lock it. I can unlock easily with one hand but others have to use both hands. The second one is installed with the 'optional' screws & cups and is very sturdy. So besides being narrow and not stable as pressure mounted only-it's a wonderful piece that I wish I had discovered sooner!

I do like how this gate is made... sturdy and fairly easy to open up with one hand (but not so easy as a kid could do it...). The main problem is that it is very difficult to set up in my home. We have an older townhome, with stairs that have a metal railing. That is only one part of the problem. I had hoped to secure the 3 corners and see how well it settled, and go from there. Unfortunately, the gate without the small expansion is much too small for the opening, and with the expansion, is just a bit too large to be able to use the "cups" that secure the gate to the wall. SO, we had to forgo the wall cups. Also, the gate has to be tightened JUST right, so as not to block the door from opening. This means the gate, at least in our situation, isn't quite sufficiently tight to the walls and rail. I cannot fix the width of the opening problem which means it will never be as sturdy as it should be, but i will be able to jury-rig the metal railing/tightening issue with some strategically placed zip ties. Hopefully you would not have any problems with this gate, as our situation is probably pretty rare. Good luck.

Before we buy this door, we read the reviews that are very good (4.4/5.0). After we get it, It is so difficult to set up. We follow the instruction and try our best to set up. But the door can not close. I return this item to store, but shipping charge can not get refund.
