This is a great gate to display. We needed to put a gate around our Christmas Tree and this worked perfectly. It looked nicer than most of the other cheaper gates. We needed to buy two of them, however, which was expensive, but we plan to use this after Christmas around our fireplace and other off limit places. I definately recommend this product.

I was pleasantly surprised by the construction of the bars and the hinges of this gate. The coating on the metal is very nice to the touch. The wall attaching mechanism is easy to figure out. I only wish they had suggested that drywall anchors might be needed to secure this to the wall. I also bought the black fireplace gate (also by Kidco) and am very pleased with that too. My 9-month old enjoys standing up holding on to the bars and it has made life so much easier now that she can't get into certain hazards on the other side of the gate. My only complaint would be that adjusting the hinges between sections is moderately painful to my hand but this is only necessary to do while setting up the position of the fence and not a daily problem. The gate opening mechanism is a great design.

This gate was exactly what I needed & was looking for. I needed to block the baby from the kitchen,I have a very opened floorplan so this was a problem. I spent many many hours researching gates. This one was a bit more expensive, I needed 1 extension, but looking at the others this one had the best reviews & the least problems. I LOVE the fact that the mount is high & not at the bottom. That means the gate will fit FLUSH on the floor & the rail that runs under the walk through gate with be on the floor & not allivated. Some of the other gates I reseached had the mount on the bottom so the gate was elevated if you have baseboards. If so that rail is off the floor & poses a trip hazard. Also the latch is very kid friendly & not a pinching hazard as with some of the others. My 6 year old can use this gate without problem. The ends where each of the 3 pieces come together are on a spring or ratchet, they pivot into place which makes it move a lot less.

I believe I found the best gate for my family. I live in a split level home that has a large odd shaped opening that other gates couldn't fit. I did have to buy an extention piece seperately but the ease of movement and installation can't be beat. Adults & pets can go in & out easily and it keeps my 10 month old safe. I also love that the gate door swings in/out so it can work for your arrangement. There is no way my child can maneuver the latch & there are no rungs for him to climb up & over.

Installing them together was pretty tough but I manage somehow to mount them on the wall.
