Best baby gate we’ve had

Easy to install (according to my husband). Also easy and intuitive for adults, which is not always the case for baby gates. And most importantly, very sturdy and effective for our toddler and crawling baby! Definitely recommend.

This is the third one of these baby gates we've purchased to baby proof throughout our home. It is a quality baby gate.

Gates work perfect

I love these gates. I cannot attest to the ease of putting them in since one of my Grandsons installed them for me. It took him less than 30 minutes from the time he opened the 3 boxes to the time they were fully installed. They are adjustable as far as the ease in opening

Easy install

I like how easy this was to install. It can be used as a pressure mount (which is how I put it up), or you can screw the wall pads into the wall. Leveling the gate is also very easy if you follow the instructions and do NOT remove the zip tie holding the swing door to the gate until you are done. I love not having to fumble with trying put up/take down a gate when putting my son to bed, or just putting him in his room while I get things done around the house. definitely worth the money!

Love it!

Perfect for what we needed. I use it a couple days a week when my great nephew is here. It doesn't damage the walls and it doesn't have to be put up and taken down. We just leave the gate open when he's not here and it's wide enough to easily walk through with groceries or whatever. We used 1 of the 2 extra pieces to extend it to fit our doorway. So much easier than walking over the one we used to have and I love not having to move it out of the way when we don't need it

Definitely recommend

I share a house with a dog owner. Since I have a slight allergy, I needed to be able to keep the dog out of my portion of the home. This works perfectly. I like that it's pressure mounted so no holes need drilled in the wall. And the walk-through feature saves so much time and hassle. It's easy to operate as well.

Overall great product.

Had to put it like a inch or two off the ground because my walls are so far apart I need to add one extension but since I have base boards the extension is to big where my base boards set. It’s not to bad since we have a puppy. I don’t have to worry about him jumping over. But I do have to step up high over the bottom rail. Kinda inconvenient, but it’s fine. Product was annoying putting up because of base boards but everything else was great. I also had a small scratch that was fairly deep but it don’t matter. I really like the gate overall.

Good basic gate

This gate was my second attempt for confining my dog to an area of the house. The first gate I purchased fit the wider door opening, but the actual width of the passageway was very small, even for my small frame. It didnt swing both directions, which I found annoying. This gate is much better in both regards, though I would like it better if it opened to more than about 135 degrees. The opening mechanism is a little tricky at first, but it gets easier to manage with one hand after a few tries. No way a little person would be able to unlatch it. All in all, Im satisfied with this product.

Great gate until it wasn’t

This product was great, until it wasn’t. It’s been stumbled onto a few times which caused need for readjustment. Hey, not a problem, I get that. After a while I noticed we were no longer able to latch. That is when I noticed the rubber stoppers were worn through by the adjusting screws and they made large holes in the drywall. Could not fix them and can’t find replacement. The whole gate is useless now.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that the gate eventually stopped latching properly and that the worn stoppers caused damage to your wall — that’s understandably frustrating, especially after needing to readjust it a few times. We’d really appreciate the chance to look into this further and help find a solution. Please reach out to our Product Tech Team at 1-812-314-6555 so we can review what happened and provide the support or replacement options you may need.

VERY difficult to unlatch

Within the first week, we started having difficulty releasing the latch. The adult women in my household struggle to open the gate - it takes both hands. I'm a big guy, and I struggle to open it, though I can do it with one hand. Sometimes it takes multiple tries. I disassembled the latch - and everything inside is in working order. Meaning, it operates exactly as it was designed and manufactured. So nothing is broken. It is just very poorly designed and manufactured. The internal parts fit loosely, and appear to be made of cheap plastic. I'm not at all surprised it is hard to open after seeing how the internals operate. Ultimately, I removed the secondary safety mechanism. I'm using it to keep my puppy in the kitchen, and he doesn't have opposable thumbs, so I can do this without risking a child's safety. I don't recommend this approach to anybody with a child. If I had a youngster in the home, I'd throw this one away and buy a different brand.
