This was a nice gate but when I recieved it, it was rusty. So I called Amazon and they reimburst me.

I just installed the gate today and it seems pretty sturdy. The installation was pretty easy, it opens smoothly, closes itself as advertised, etc.
I had a 52.5" opening, so I ordered a second 10" extension from the Summer Infant website. Their website says the extension is compatible with model number 06070, Extra Tall Walk Thru Baby Gate. It also notes that it is NOT compatible with model 06070C. The Summer Infant website, as well as all the websites that carry this model (I checked them all), only list Model 06070. I assumed the 06070C model must be discontinued or something. When my package arrived in the mail, the container of course said Model 06070C, and as advertised the extension pins did not line up with the gate. I am not sure if the blame lies with Amazon and all the sellers (for not fully labeling the product online), or with Summer Infant (for having a poor labeling system/interoperability).
I did discover a work around. You can remove the plastic piece in the top corner of the gate (either side will work) that holds the pin, flip it over, and reinsert. The alignment is not perfect, but it works (the extension does not sit flush on the floor with the rest of the gate however). I am just using the gate to block a passageway; I would not recommend this work around for stairs.

I've got 4 children and have used a few different gates in my time. We had one from our second child that we loved for our entrance into the kitchen but it finally broke and our fourth is still into everything so a gate was a must. I saw this and thought, "Wow, it does everything I need!". It's true, it's taller than most (my #4 is a climber and has come very close to climbing over standard gates), pressure mounted (we are putting this between a metal covered corner and thin paneling under a breakfast bar), and one handed operation while swinging both ways. Sounded perfect for us.
Then reality settled in. It took less than 1hr for my 20mo old to figure out how to open it. Yep, that's right. 20mo old, through it in under an hour. The latch just isn't designed to stop a determined child. It's 1/8" (maybe smaller) tongue that slides back with a thumb plate. He yanked on it and popped it out. Then he figured out how to pull it up and into the kitchen he went. Hmmm...maybe we didn't have it tight enough? We tightened it to the point where the auto-latch thing didn't work and we could barely latch it ourselves and still he got through. No matter how tight or how loose we made it, he could open it. We've had it a week and it's going back to the store to try something else.
For the record, no, my #4 is NOT a huge tank. He is tall (hence the reason I liked the extra-tall gate) but he is only 30% in weight. If he could do it, so could just about any child that put their mind to it. I shudder to think of these at the top of stairs.
I did call customer service and was told no refund through them but I could trade for a different one. All the ones that would work in that area had the same latch. No thanks!

Okay, so this was delivered quickly, and it took me less than 10 minutes to set up. At first I overtightened it, and it wouldn't shut, so I loosened it and everything was fine. I decided to forgo the padded discs that you can screw into the wall to keep the gate in place, because I thought my daughter wouldn't be strong enough to dislodge it.
WRONG.
After about two weeks of pretty much leaving it alone, she decided she wanted to come into the kitchen, and she wanted to do it NOW. So she gave the gate two or three really good yanks, and the bottom came loose, followed by the top, and the whole thing needed to be put back up.
So this time I marked where I wanted to screw in the padded discs, because not having a gate at all is NOT an option (we occasionally need to put down mousetraps, and don't want her to get to them and hurt herself). Marking and installing the discs took less than five minutes, and this time around, installation was a snap. The gate has stayed in place for about two months now. She can yank on it all she wants, it isn't going anywhere.
I'm much more impressed with this gate than I was with the Summer Infant play yard. I would recommend this to other parents.

I got this gate for my puppy who figured out how to climb over a shorter gate. It is awesome. He hasn't been able to escape, and the door makes it easy for me to get in and out without having to take down the whole gate or climb over it. It was easy to set up. I'm not sure how it would be for kids, but I know my dog can't get out and get into things he's not supposed while I'm gone!
