Toddleroo by North States - Diamond Mesh Wooden Baby Gate: Pressure Mounted Baby Gate for Doorways - Adjustable 26.5 to 42 Inches Wide - 23 Inches Tall

This gate requires common sense, not instructions. There is no sense in down-grading their rating for this reason. Why does toothpaste have instructions? People like you, who lack common sense and basic problem-solving skills. The height is better than the taller Evenflo model, because even at 5'4" it is still possible to step over the gate, even while holding a laundry basket. We've had this gate set up on the stairs (prior to setting up a permanent gate) and it is possible to step over the gate and down one step without issue. Bear in mind that the bottom corners must be placed above floor molding so that all four rubber nubs have equal pressure against the wall. Even with the added height, it is easy to step over. This is not the type of gate you want to unlock and replace every time you want to go by. We have permanently mounted gates in addition to these pressure gates since each gate has its own benefits. Permanently mounted gates are just that, you never intend to move them, just pass through. If you go this route, be prepared to use the screws they provide since they are not strong enough to hold back toddlers without the extra reinforcement. These pressure gates are for blocking off an open slider (the nubs fit into the slider so it is impossible to dislodge) or the kids' bedroom during play time. We also use them on the front door when we are looking for a cool breeze. After a few weeks you will notice that the metal leaves marks in the commonly used settings, so it is quicker to install over time.

I got this gate because my dog and the dog we're currently fostering haven't been getting along, and I needed a way to separate them at times without totally shutting one in another room or crating them. This is perfect. I was worried that it'd be too hard to set up, because I vaguely remember never being able to figure these out when I babysat. But it only took a few minutes. I agree with other people that it'd be a good idea to mark the correct notch (my door was 30 inches). Careful not to force the wood lever thing or it'll snap (this didn't happen to me, I could just see how it could happen). This was up in a few minutes and was very sturdy. The dogs are both labs, so I was afraid they'd simply jump over it, but they didn't! I just put one in the other room (with a clear sight-line to us), calmly locked the gate into place, said "stay here," and walked away. The foster dog didn't move at all. I will say that if you plan to have to cross this a lot, then I'd probably spring for the bolt-in ones that are a bit more permanent. This one would get annoying to step over all the time and/or to dismantle a lot. But if you're looking to use it sporadically or in an out-of-the-way room, I recommend this one! And you can't beat the price.

Works well- holds securely- a bit stiff to operate at first.

I own a couple of these wood tension latch gates from other manufacturers and love them. This thing is total garbage. I’ve had it for less than a week and it is completely falling apart. It comes out of the tracks every time you try to use it, and is extremely frustrating to get back together. I would absolutely look elsewhere. These gates are simple and should easily work. This does not.

I bought 3 of these- 1 completely fell apart (pins bent/frame warped) when trying to mount- it also was off on the measurements as it did not fit where the other 2 gates did- the mounting squares for the cups are terrible. And the plastic mounting cups crack and break if you try to use screws since the mounting tape won’t work. (I’m using for cats but wouldn’t trust for a child, even with brackets). Also think it’s awful that the mounting bracket bag is jammed in between the frame and the net so you risk destroying the product to get the mounting materials.

This baby gate is a really great purchase. We don’t have any baby gates anywhere in our house, but we use this at night for my daughter as she gets used to her toddler bed to keep her from roaming the house in the middle of the night as an alternative to locking her in the room, it fits right outside her door.

I lean it to secure dogs and it works perfectly. Dogs are afraid of shakey gates so stay away.

This is our third baby gate we have purchased. One for each entryway to prevent our toddler from entering certain spaces. It works great and stays firmly in place. It’s a classic baby gate at a good price. It is a bit hard to click and unclick back into place but we leave ours up and don’t ever move it. We just climb over it every time. I wouldn’t recommend if you were going to be moving the gate multiple times a day as it is difficult to maneuver back in.

Si tuviera un bebé, definitivamente no la compraría porque es muy frágil y bajita. Yo la uso para mis perros y me funciona de maravilla.

If you have a huge dog then this gate will not stop him. But I use mine to discourage my puppy from going to areas of the house that I don’t want her to be in. She has never tried to jump or pull on it. If she did, this gate would be destroyed instantly. It is not very well made for and gate crashers.

Realmente este producto con mi perro que es de talla chica. Es muy firme y bastante facil de usar. No necesita instalaciones solo se coloca bajo presion entre paredes. Es una excelente compra del cual no me arrepiento. Ya tengo cerca de 6 meses con el producto y sin fallas.

La puerta cumple con el propósito y está bien construida, sin embargo la calidad de los acabados deja que desear. La madera no está cortada o lijada a la perfección, lo que deja espacios visibles entre las uniones y una textura gruesa; nada grave, pero podría ser mejor elaborado y terminado. El funcionamiento es un poco complicado para abrir y cerrar, comparado con otros sistemas disponibles en el mercado. Es una buena compra considerando el costo beneficio. Llegó a tiempo, en buenas condiciones y con buenas instrucciones.
