 Versatile and durable Feb 03, 2005
By K. Roth
"Travel Guru"
We purchased this gate for an odd sized opening, because it is expandable. It attaches to both sides of the opening so you open it on either side. We have the gate in a very high traffic opening, and it is not only easy to open and close, but has stood up to the bigger kids going in out. In the evening when the kids go to sleep, we simply unlatch both sides and set it off to the side. I love it so much, I'm buying 2 more to replace those pitiful pressure mounted gates we have. Works well to keep the dog contained from the baby area also. Quality, durable product. I definitely recommend it. Target is the only place I have found this gate.

Very versatile yet inexpensive. Jan 15, 2010
By M. Sherer
First the gate is Assembled in the USA. The design of the gate is rather simple which makes it very versatile. The gate is symmetrical and once the four eye bolts (or eye screws) are installed, either side of the gate can be detached for swinging in both directions. The latches for the top eye bolts (it just sets on the bottom eye bolts) are a little finicky. This is both good (harder for toddlers to open the gate) and bad (if you have to race to answer the phone). The top rail is plastic and telescopes when the gate is expanded. The directions say to screw the eye bolts into the wall at 6" & 24" above the floor, I would recommend adding 1/2" to 1" to that so that it may clear an uneven floor or carpet. The bolts may need those self drilling plastic anchors if the gate is being mounted to drywall with no stud behind it. In general, it feels like a quality made gate and the price with free shipping is right.
Also, If the gate is not left swinging free (fixed in place or removed and put away), it shouldn't be a danger to little ones as the diamond openings are actually rather small and fixed when the gate is latched.

A great gate Dec 27, 2007
By Michelle Rene Mccrary
"M&M"
I purchased this gate for a the opening into my kitchen. It is an odd caddy corner shaped opening. The gate was easy to install and works great. We purchased it to keep my 8 month old son from crawling into the kitchen to eat the dog's food! He is almost 2 now and we still use it to keep him out of the kitchen. He has never pinched a finger or any other part of his body. My 5 year old is able to open and shut it with ease. It is very durable and his withstood my son shaking it back an forth. I guess you could say it is kid tested and mother approved.

 good idea, good price, bad hardware Jan 02, 2011
By shmitty01
"shmitty01"
Purchased this gate to use to keep my son from climbing steps. It is fairly strong, easily adaptable, but a flawed design. Having to hook 2 latches is difficult, contrary to the pictures on the box. You could never operate the latches with one hand and a baby on your hip. The springs in the stick, sometimes won't latch, sometimes won't let go. Worst of all, my wife cut a large gash in her hand on the "safe" plastic section. Good idea, POOR hardware. Needs serious work to make this functional. Going to build yet another baby gate myself due to lack of cost effective, SAFE options on the market.

Inexpensive and it works Jan 07, 2008
By Chris Fredricks
"fallrecords"
You can't beat the price compared to other gates. I use it to block of a 60" opening and it's wide enough to block even a couple more inches. You do have to drill 4 holes in your wall but the gate is sturdy and if you pay attention to your child when you are opening and closing it it's perfectly safe. good stuff.
