 Looks and works well but disappointed in installation options Dec 15, 2009
By Akaijen
The only problem with this product is that you don't have a lot of control over how many panels you want to use. We wanted to remove just one panel to create a wall across an alcove off our kitchen. But only certain panels work with the mounting hardware - the minimum number we could remove was two panels, which would have been way too short. As a result, we had to zig-zag the fence in order to install it for our space. This works OK, and now that my daughter is cruising on it, it gives her a more interesting "course" to navigate. However, it has a lot of give in that it slides a bit when my daughter pulls up on it. Also be aware that there are plastic pieces that sit under the frame of the gate, and these pieces managed to rub the varnish off our hardwood floor.

 Good quality Jan 31, 2009
By Jane Doe
"VT mom"
This play yard is a good buy, it is good quality, heavy and sound. We also purchased the extension kit, it would have been very small without that. It is large enough to get in with our son and he loves "cruising" around the edges holding on to the bars. No danger of him climbing out with the vertical bars. Overall, a good buy.
The only complaint I have is that the latch on the gate is a little difficult, requires both hands most of the time.

 Wonderful for babies Aug 22, 2011
By R. Taylor
"FTM2010"
I looked at so many playards for my little one. I almost bought one of the plastic playards with toys and music until my husband noticed in the photos that there were places that could act as little footholds for a curious climbing baby. And I also read reviews to that effect--that their little one were able to climb over their playpens. With that in mind, this is the only playard I found that was truly baby proof. They also make this same playard in metal for a little cheaper. We went for the wood because we thought it would be more forgiving should our daughter fall into it while playing. Here are the pros and cons:
Pros:
1.STURDY
2. very well-made and nice smooth wood. very much like her crib.
3. it is extra tall so when she is standing she has to reach over her head to touch the top railing which is wonderful! most playards and her crib included--she is a head taller than the top which always worries me that she is going to climb over the top
4. VERTICAL BARS -- theres no place for her to get a foothold to climb out
5. You do not have to put it in a circle formation--you can attach it to walls. You can also get 2 panel extenders for $50.
6. Arrives assembled
Cons
1. Gate is cumbersome but not terribly--def not a deterrent from buying.
2. If you plan to do the circle formation, you many need to buy the extenders because otherwise it could be a little small--maybe not much bigger than a pack n play
3. You cannot remove panels to shorten the playard--you can only add to the playard in 2 panel or 6 panel extensions.
All in all, this was worth every penny. Definitely spend a little more and get something that will last and keep baby safe. The fact that it's extra tall, sturdy, and that my daughter is unable to get out or hurt herself on this playard is well worth it. Just like with cribs, children have been seriously injured with faulty playards so finding a good one is important.
UPDATE:
My child is turning out to be quite the climber--but cannot get over this gate so the extra height and vertical bars are a great feature and I'm so glad to have chosen this product. Also, the cumbersome gate is also great because my little one cannot figure out how to get it open--so what I thought was a con is actually a pro!

ok - for the price you would expect more Dec 14, 2010
By Merav and Itai Vonshak
well ... it does what it's suppose to do ... but ... if you are buying a gate for well over 150 bucks you are expecting more.
The gate is not easy to open (the click is too hard for adults and the motion of opening it is awkward)
but the most annoying thing is that you can not install it on the wall with an uneven amount of panels. you have to use 2, 4 or 6. which in our case is a problem as the space is perfect for 3 panels.
this would have been possible if they were not so cheap and would have included in the package 2 more plastic pieces....
i will try to contact them to see if they are willing to send me the pieces - but it should be included by default ...
buy this only if you need a very long wooden separator in your house. and be aware that its not easy to open...

Not only that it looks better! Jan 15, 2012
By J.A.M.
It does look a lot nicer in our living room then the plastic one, but I like it better for other reasons too! It is easier to reshape then the plastic kind, taller, feels sturdier (my one year old son can bend the panels of the plastic kind when he shakes them and he does not even try with this one), my son has also figured out how to climb the plastic one if he is shoe-less, but because there are no ladder like holes in this one I do not have to worry about this one yet, and I like being able to walk in the gates instead of stepping over. The click of the locks is a little loud, but I find if I depress the button while closing it is quieter.
