Our daughter just turned one and loves going up the stairs so we decided to invest in a gate to keep her out of trouble/danger. The only issue we were running into is we have a very wide opening at the bottom of our stairs so we were limited on the type of gate we could get. This gate is sturdy and with the extra paneling fits around the base of the stairs. The only issue we have found is that because of the way the paneling is configured we aren't able to get the gate to hug or fit tightly against the base of the stairs or the stairwell. We had to secure the gate into the wall on one side and into the railing on the other then use zip ties to hold an extra panel together, it doesn't look bad and again, for the price and size, and option of being able to use it as an enclosed play area down the road it's a good deal and fits our needs. We couldn't find this gate/playard for a better price anywhere else and love the ship to store option. We were able to pick it up at a local store within 5 days of our online purchase.

My daughter has an active 8 month old. He crawls everywhere and she has a tri level home, lots od stairs up and down. This is an neat fence, play area, safety from all dangerous places that you do not want little ones going. My daughter is thrilled as it can be shaped into so many different ways. It has a small section that is a slide lock door so her other kids and her can go up stairs easily and baby is safe! This is a life saver for her. She can actually carry clothes to washer, use the bathroom and get the others ready for school knowing he has a safe big area to play and can see everything that is going on! Great product!

I bought it with some reservation as I read some negative reviews about how the round fasteners break easily and another review about how customer service had to be contacted to get an end fastener because they removed some of the panels. Anyway, this is the BEST purchase I've made at WalMart so far (and I shop there weekly if not more!) I needed something around 105 inches to lock my dog in a spare room while I am at work during this hot summer (she can't stay outside/or in the garage). I removed some of the panels and at first had trouble with fastening to the wall where the end panels were removed but then I figured it out. It works great at keeping her in. It's high enough so she can't jump out or squeeze through the sides. Love it, love it!

I got this to replace a pack and play that my son was beginning to dislike. It was easy to set up, and works great! The only flaw I would say is that its not as sturdy as I would like it to be. My son is starting to use anything to stand up and the entire thing has shifted when hes tried to get up.

We bought this fence for our daughter's home to keep her twin 14 month old sons safe from the fireplace. It can be attached to either the wall or the side of a fireplace to make it sturdy and strong. These two active boys try to hang on it and shake it but it doesn't give! It also can be used on some porches and with large stairways. There is a gate for adults to get through to load up the fireplace with wood easily. We don't know what her family would do without it. Great price too.

I was surprised by what a good deal this was. I use it to protect our granddauaghter from touching our wood stove. It surrounds the wood stove with the convenient gate in the front where we can still access the stove for loading wood and general maintanance. This is a metal fence which works well for the area it is being used in, I did not want to try a plastic beside the stove. The price was considerably less than other places I had looked. This was a value and a bargain.

It is in face extra large like the name identifies it as. It was originally going to be used to go around our fireplace, but it extended well past that. Now, we have it blocking the fireplace and the entertainment center. It is sturdy enough so that our 7 month old can pull up on it, and we even talked about getting another one to go around our Christmas tree. I did not rate it a 5 because one of the bars was bent when we opened the package.

I bought this fence for my dog for a yard when we go camping in our motorhome and it works GREAT! I bought 3 of these, connected them together and it makes a nice yard for our schnauzer. I also bought some plastic fencing to connect to the motorhome so our schnauzer could not go underneath and it works great too.

I bought this gate to separate puppy from cats while I am not home to watch them. It works good for what I need it for. It has to be bolted to the wall otherwise would be very easy to knock over. I would use with a child but only if bolted to wall and of course with supervision. Good value for the price I would recommend.

I purchased this gate to keep my 19 month old away from our wood stove. The screws that come with it are way too small to attach to the wall so we used our own. Another thing we will have to modify is the bottom (it slides around on our hardwood floors.) If we can attach it to the floor or add some rubber grips to keep it from sliding it would work a lot better.
