Great Buy

People that left bad reviews obviously didn't know how to use or didn't read directions. This is an excellent baby gate. I love it and would buy again.

Very sturdy!

This is a very solid and sturdy gate! Even when my son pushes against it, I know it won't fall over. Very reassuring. Great for the bottom of stairs especially!

Easy to use and install!

Smarty pants can figure out how to open! Would love for there to be an option with a little dog door ;)

This gate is impossible to open

I don't know if we got a defective latch or if the gate is designed this way but the latch is so stiff my 11 year old cannot manage it. We are going to replace it because it is too hard to squeeze open.

Very disappointed

I drove an hour and a half to purchase this baby gate. The next day I take it out to install it and the door is bent. Not built right at all. Very disappointed that now I have to drive back and get a new one.

Latch stopped working

We bought 2 of these gates. After a couple of days, we cannot depress the bottom button to unlatch one of the gates. Really GOOD gate with really BAD latch mechanism... Plastic lock parts on a metal gate???

So easy!

I wish I would have known about this gate earlier. It is so sturdy and can mount to anything without needed any tools or the need to drill holes in the wall.

AWESOME GATE for my Escaping child

I had to write a review about this gate. I literally bought 10 dif. gates. I had a child that could either unlock everyone on the market or coyld climb over everyone he is extremely tall. I went online and searched for a gate for my escaping child and came across this one. I couldn't be any happier with this product. He wasnt able to open it or climb it. I ended up buying 2 more. His preschool bought 2 for his classroom so he wouldnt get out of their room. Its def. one of the best gates around for the price and durability. you will not be disappointed

I have been buying baby gates for 25 years. This is the best

I am a mother and now grandmother. I have bought many gates over the years, but none measures up to this one! It is super easy to install. It is long enough for extended areas. We had a oversized doorway, with three steps that extended the length of doorway, leading down to our den. This handled the whole area, it was sturdy and had a door that was easily opened with one hand. You know how important that can be! With so many other gates being flimsy, not long enough or just plain clumsy, I can tell you that this design was heaven sent! I would recommend Safety First gates over any other on the market! Oh, and very well priced for the value! I would have offered money to be able to use this product! Thank you Safety First!

Horrible

I have replaced the mounting screws and they are still digging holes in my walls. The screws have a rubber shoe on them to "protect' your walls, but the screws poke through them in a matter of weeks. Then they tear up my walls. If I could get my money back I would. The screws ruin the whole gate. Guess that is what happens when you buy something on line. You can't inspect the gate for design flaws. This gate has done several hundred dollars worth of damage to my walls.

Not for long-term use

Bought this just a little over a year ago. Like the other review, the latches on our gate were also getting harder and harder to open, until it was impossible. I unscrewed the locking mechanism and discovered that a piece of the latch had snapped off and was blocking the other latch from moving into place. This wasn't a cheap gate but the pieces seem to be made with cheap material. Very disappointed.

Latch is impossible!

Easy to install and durable, However…. After 2-3 months of use, we are unable to use this door anymore because it causes such hand strength to unlatch! It hurts! We just walk around the baby gate.

Great Gate!

Love the extra height and width that this gate provides. Not only does it keep our mobile 1 year old safe, but it also keeps my dog from jumping over the fence and getting into restricted areas of my house.

Not wide enough

We loved this at our old place but it's a few inches shy of being wide enough for the hallway where we now need it. Its a great gate with a decent size door. I wish you could buy additional extensions to make it a smidge longer!

Everyday Use

Great for high traffic areas as door is easy to open (adult) as it's a two button pinch latch. Auto close feature is great and reliable.

Great for keeping pets out of baby's room!

We bought this to keep our pets out of the baby's room. It's tall enough that our cat can't jump over it yet sturdy enough to also keep the dog out. The door opens easily and took only 10 minutes to install.

Excellent product

I bought 2 gates and they are made well look great and make it so easy to walk through.

Sleek, easy to install!

We have a super awkward space that leads to our laundry room and couldn't find a gate that fit the space and was actually sturdy. This one is super minimal and not bulky, I don't even notice it anymore. I also love that it uses tension and we didn't need to drill into our walls.

Latches get stiff within a few months

I have now gone through 3 of these gates. I love them until they hit the 1 month mark of use and the latches slowly get harder and harder to open. It's almost like they freeze up. It ends up getting to a point where twi adults using full strength can't open them. Has happened with all 3 of mine. Must be a product default.

Loved this item, I bought 2!!!

I live in a one bedroom apartment and used it to keep my toddler from the kitchen and the back porch in the bedroom.
