Good gate
This is a good baby gate. We purchased it for the large opening between our living room and kitchen to keep our 25lb 8-month old crawling baby out. It is anchored into the trim (not drywall) and it is very secure. He is able to pull up on it, tries to bulldoze it, and pushes on the mesh and still no problems. It takes a little while to get the technique down for opening and closing the door, but its great not to have to climb over it (although you can if your hands are full). We also had to get used to steping over the bar at the bottom, but now we are used to it and dont really have a problem. Overall its a good gate.

Best Baby Gate so far
We tried a bunch of baby gates, and this one was the best for our odd shaped stair well.

Awesome gate I have three
I love this gate! I have three like stated above! One to block off a pellet / wood stove. And the other two for when or whatever I need. They can block off the kitchen or be used together and have a huge play yard for horse shows or family visits. Its great! Very easy to install took me less than 30 mins right out of the box. My son and 4 dogs all over a hundred lbs have been quite hard on it and its held up amazing!

Okay if you want a permanent structure
It is a sturdy bugger and the expandability allowed me to block off my living room from the rest of the house. The main drawback I have with the item is that it has no portability what-so-ever (unless you buy a second unit and attach them together to create a giant playpen). To make this work, screw it into the wall. There's one set of wall mounts so it's not like you can even swing it around to another location. If you want to use this, keep in mind, you are putting 8 screws into your walls and/or woodwork to do it. Other than that, it keeps my powerhouse 1-year-old contained and she even does pull-ups on it (she weighs 22.2 lbs. and is 31.5" tall) w/o a problem.

Great gate!
Love the flexibility for a difficult space - we have it at an odd angle and it works well. Can't attach to a stairwell though but we tied the end bar to the bannister with some strong plastic zip ties and it's very sturdy. Would recommend this gate - love the door feature as well - easy to use with one hand.

Love this gate!
I bought this gate because it is the ONLY gate I could find to fit our very large opening since we have an open floor plan in our ranch house. It's great! The only complaint is that if you don't screw into a stud, you will DEFINITELY need to get your own drywall screws and (sorry I'm not sure what they're called...), but the plastic pieces you put in before the screws. Also, because I have it strait across an area instead of in a corner, it is less stable...meaning when my daughter pushes on it, the gate tends to go forward a bit since the "feet" by the door of the gate are not screwed to the floor! You can't really do anything about it since it's such a wide opening. Not a big deal for me. Holding up great for a few months now. The gate also looks really nice.

Too expensive for the time useful
It is great for a very short amount of time. It was helpful when my daughter was crawling, and kept her in her own space. I was able to block off an entire room with it. But when she was about 17 months, she realized how easy it was to rip off the "breathable" gate, because it is only attached with velcro. It is very frusterating, that we spent so much on it, and went to the great extent of installing it and re arranging our house, for it to work only a few short months. I wouldn't really reccommend anything with velcro!!

A good value
I read a bunch of the 1 star reviews and I just don't understand their problems. I have had this gate for 2 years and have next to zero complaints. My one wish would be that the plastic parts were metal instead, but that is a minor complaint. I have not had a problem with my kids pushing through the velcro and they know not to hang on it, so that problem is a discipline problem, not the gate design. And why would an adult climb over it?? The locking mechanisim is such that kids don't have the coordination to work it. If you climb over it, you are an accident waiting to happen. And to top off my good experience, the gate section recently broke (the plastic part). I called the manufacture (Summer) and they are sending me a new gate section. No questions asked, only what part was broken. It didn't matter that it was probably my dog jumping over it that broke it. I'm not even paying shipping. I would definately buy this gate again. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because of the plastic, but the customer service more than makes up for it.

I love this gate!
It is not easy to find a gate that fits large openings. I have a home with an open floor plan, this was the most reasonably priced gate that extended at least 100" long. It blends in well with the decor of our house too! I have this gate standing on its on for now, but as soon as my child starts walking we will connect it to the wall. The gate is also easy enough for my 6 year old to open and lock. I am very happy I purchased this.

I'm happy with it so far, velcro door and all...
After reading the review by Mrs Egers about the velcro door, I immediately had to look at our gate that we bought to see if it did, in fact, have a velcroed door. It does.
However, our gate has a couple small stitches, like french knots over the velcro in the corners to keep it from just peeling off as described. Until I got down on my knees to look, I couldn't tell that it was velcroed on. Even with all the daily use, it was firmly in place. I tried peeling it off, as described, and could only get a small section apart - and it wasn't easy. I think if you had a very resourceful and dexterous toddler, they could get it apart with some persistance and unsupervised time if they were shown how to. I think most kids would not even notice it. It looks like it was just sewn together. I don't plan to bring this little design flaw to the attention of any of my kids! And, fortunately, we are blocking a hallway, not a stairway.
The main reason I chose this gate was for the support in the center, on either side of the door, keeping it from tipping. It spans a 90-inch hallway in our home. Many of the other gates I reviewed had the problem of falling over in the middle when spanning only about 70 inches, because of inadequate floor support in the center. A favorite toddler pasttime is shaking the gate that is holding them in - I didn't want something that was going to just collapse. Ours came with screws for mounting right into a stud or a wooden post, as well plastic anchors for mounting into sheetrock. I was lucky enough to be able to mount it into wood on both sides. If you can't mount into a stud beam, I recommend using toggle bolts instead of the little plastic thingies.
Again, so far, so good. It has managed to bungle the 1-yr old and the cats, but not the 4-yr old, 7-yr old or 9-yr old (nor the adults!).
