Review on πŸšͺ Carlson Pet Products MINI Expandable Extra Wide Pet Gate - White, 18-31 inches: Perfect for Small Pets with Small Pet Door (916006) by Kristi Washington

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Terrible design. Not suitable for small dogs or large dogs.

I don't know how this thing got good reviews when even the positive reviews have photo evidence showing users need to use this gate for easy use with hacks, such as bamboo or cardboard inserts. to fill in the gaps on the side. The gate is so short that it's clearly only for the smallest of dogs, which would be fine, mine fits, and it's clearly designed for a 'transitional' gate. But since it "adjusts" the width mainly through the extension screws on the ends, you will most likely end up with big gaps on either side of the gate, big enough for the "tiniest dog" to sneak through. How why. If you have to put extra obstacles like poles or cardboard or whatever in the gaps to make this thing work, I don't think it's very good. I could also stick a small cardboard "wall" in the same spot and that would probably be just as effective. I've chosen prettier gates that open and close for people instead of steps and the quality is much better. So I recommend this (bought 4!): Frisco Extra Wide Auto-Close Pet Gate, 30" Height, Slide 1 of 6

Pros
  • ADJUSTABLE: Patented quick attachment system, ideal for use in doorways, hallways and at the bottom of stairs. The gate can be quickly removed from the opening for easy storage. Easy install with clamp mounts some assembly required
Cons
  • I don't remember
