There is NO way my daughter will be able to get through this gate. She is the most rambunctious little girl too. And she is only 10 months old. She is already running around and able to walk really well on her own. And she loves the stairs. This gate is perfect in front of our stairs and they're not even with the wall either. The banaster and the very top stair are totally uneven and our opening is about 7 feet wide. And with the Configure Gate and one extension, there is no way I will ever have to worry about my daughter falling down the staris or breaking our gates, which she has done due to the way the top of our stairs are. This is the only gate that I have found that works perfect for our home. Plus the door in the gate is easy to use. You don't have to squeeze hard on the handle to open it, but it's not easy enough for a 4 year old to squeeze the handle. I love that this is a heavy-duty metal gate, it won't break or fall apart on me and it was easy to install. I'm so happy that my husband and I bought this gate. It is an all around Great Investment. If you are considering buying a baby gate, you should really invest in a great baby gate. And I HIGHLY recommend this gate. And with the extensions it can fit ANYWHERE in your home or you can make it into a circle for a play yard. If you want a gate for your home, and you want one that will last and protect your child no matter how hard they are on it, get this gate.

This gate us a lifesaver. Not only do I pets, I have a very adventurus toddler. This gate is sturdy and very durable. It is very convienent because it is designed to fit in an area that isnt straight. My living room has a curve to it so it fits great. A wonderful item. Thank you!

I bought a couple of these extensions for the kidco playden I ordered online. The extensions actually weren't necessary for us, because the playden came with 6 sides and ended up being very spacious for my energetic little 10 month old. The kidco play den, without an extension, is also large enough for an adult to sit in, as well.

I am very satisfied with the play den (and the extension pieces). I feel very free and confident that baby is safe and secure when she's in there. I like the playden much better than our portacrib for everyday playtime. It's very sturdy, expandable and open & airy. My 10 month old daughter hasn't even thought about climbing out yet, even though I know she would try if she could. The vertical bars don't really seem climb-able for a younger, mobile baby.

My husband actually doesn't care for the vertical bars. He refers to the play den as baby's "jail." I don't mind the bars, though. Most importantly, baby doesn't mind them, either. She actually has a very nice, panoramic view of the room through those bars. And she likes to use the bars to pull herself up to standing.

It's a little difficult to figure out how to change the position of the individual panels. You have to pull up on the panels in a special way. It takes a little time and practice to get the hang of it. I found it almost impossible to get the exact shape that I wanted. I found it easier to just take the unit apart completely and start from scratch.

I didn't realize this before I bought it, but you could probably just buy 5 or 6 of the extension pieces and connect them together to assemble your own play den. You just wouldn't have a door, and the door is really nice to have.

I have this gate set up in two different parts of my house... one part as-is, and one part with two extensions. The gate that that has no extensions is very durable, and easy to open, however there is a bar that goes across the bottom of the "door", and myself and my guests are always bumping bare toes on it...ouch!

In the other part of my house, I have this gate with two extensions. It's such a LONG gate, that there is no stability... the whole thing kind of sways, and my toddler finally was able to pull it out of the wall. There aren't many gates out there that will let you cover such a wide room, though, and for that it was nice while it lasted.

Excellent product. Exactly what I needed to keep my dogs in one corner of the room with access to their exit door.

This was one of the best things I purchased when I had the little one. I had no stairs, just wanted to create a barrier to another room and it was great. I would have no problem using this equipment around stairs as it is solid.

I bought two extensions to add to my configure gate. I love it! I've had no problems at all with instability, but you have to be sure not to have the gate too straight. You have to have some bends (angles) in it to keep it sturdy. I have triplet daughters and have used this gate with two extensions added to it for 3 years now and have not had any trouble with it whatsoever and the gate is still as good as the day we bought it. Highly recommend this gate to anyone, it's worth every penny!

These gates are a life saver! They are very sturdy and adjustable. Now I no longer have to worry about our little boy near the stairs. Definitely worth every penny!

This gate definitely met my expectations. As we are temporarily living with my parents, our baby's room is in the living room. I needed a gate that would safely section off the 12 feet between the two walls. This gate (with extensions) spans the room and seems very secure to contain our crawling/climbing 8 month old.

I recently ordered this extension for our configure gate. It came within a few days of ordering. I opened it, followed the easy to understand directions, and had the gate modified and operational in about 15 minutes.
Thanks for the easy online experience.
