This review is from: Dreambaby Pressure Mount Hallway Gate with Extensions, White (Baby Product)
we needed a gate to fit in between the kitchen and livingroom which a little larger space than normal. i spent alot of time reserching gates about 2 months and i decided on this one, and i am so glad i did. it is perfect. it only took me about 20 mintues to set it up and get it right. we have it about 1/2 an inch of the floor so just in case it did slip or something it would not scratch the hardwood floor. it shuts great, opens great and locks great. my 14 month old son loves it to because he can see through it so he knows what is going on in the other room, the gate does shut by itself but i think that is good if you want to keep it open just put a shoe in front of the door and there you go its open. i love it love it love it, way worth every little penny. i would recommend this product to anyone and everyone. it is also not bulky looking and it looks nice when it is up not like most gates. it is pressure mounted so no screws in your wall. and if you have to you can still step over it, low enough to if you need to, but yet still high enough so shildren cant get over and because of it being designed the way it is, it is also very hard for the little ones to climb. again love it love it love it

GREAT product, definitely worth the money 1.5 years later!, October 20, 2008
This review is from: Dreambaby Pressure Mount Hallway Gate with Extensions, White (Baby Product)
This is a great product and a great place to buy it. We currently have this gate in a 48" doorway, and our 20-month-old rather rambunctious daughter has yet to break out or tear it down. (Yes, of course, she has tried!) It was relatively easy to set up (probably easier than most of the baby toys I've put together). It is easy to get in and out of, mainly because the door swings both ways. I do not particularly love that the door is hinged with a spring, however; there have been some close calls with fingers almost getting pinched. The spring also makes it difficult to keep the door open without installing an eye hook in a nearby wall to attach it to with string (or, like us, those baby rings they sell for hanging baby items so that kids can't choke themselves with it). Still, I'm amazed at the gate's ability to withstand lots of abuse but still maintain top quality function. We chose not to screw it into the wall and only use the sticky pads that lock it in place when you're setting it up. I wondered if we'd regret that and end up taking it apart to screw it into the wall. It hasn't been an issue at all. The thing is just ridiculously sturdy. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a gate for a wider doorway that is used frequently; it's well worth the money.
Quick update: We now have a 2.5-year-old and a 10-month-old, and the gate is as sturdy--and useful--as ever. My 2.5-year-old can't get it open, which is great, and my younger one can pull up on it without any fear of it moving. The spring in the hinge is still annoying for pinched fingers, especially when my 2.5-year-old tries to be "helpful" and shut it for me. Pinched fingers haven't yet happened, but that's mainly due to good luck and mom's watchful eyes. Overall, I still highly recommend the gate--I'd buy it again in a heartbeat if I needed something for a wide doorway.

Fabulous Product, You Will Not Be Disappointed!!, December 20, 2007
This gate is well worth the money and will definitely last for quite some time. I have two and use one at the top of the stairs. I really wish the door was a bit wider when bringing groceries in and out of the house, but compared to the other gate options, this one wins hands down! My toddler will try to get through and even knows where to put his hand on the latch, but because you have to pull up while releasing the latch, he'll never be able to open it! Go ahead and spend the money. You will not be disappointed!
