Summer Infant Decorative Pressure Mounted Review

Bought the product twice (black and brown in the listing and in the photo) and received the wrong color both times (brown and grey). The customer service provided by the manufacturer was not helpful either via chat or phone; Each hands a dollar. Note that the manufacturer does not even make the gate in brown/black as advertised/pictured, only brown/grey or brown/brown. Thank you Revane for wasting my valuable time. As a thank you, I'll continue to use my free two-day shipping until I feel like…

Very attractive children's goal. But they have some design flaws that make them difficult to install and use. 1) The gate relies on pressure to align the gate latch mechanism, which is unreliable and inaccurate. 2) The gate has a threshold, which is difficult for small animals or old people to use. I would recommend people to look for gates where the moving part has NO threshold. 3) The gate latching mechanism requires the lever to be depressed and then the gate to be LIFTED up and over the…

I was a little apprehensive at first but this is an easy and solid install! I used it at the base of the stairs and since I had to attach one end of the gate to a spiral wooden post to make it work, I had to purchase an EZ-Fit: Baby Gate Adapter Kit for Stairs. + Child & Pet Safety - Protect Railings + Walls - Includes ONLY (1) adapter side. This gate comes with three different size extensions (I used a 10 inch extension). I installed the EZ Fit adapter on the spindle and then installed the…

Over the past few years I have dealt with MANY gates for children and pets while working at an animal shelter and as a foster family. Externally, this one is similar to most others - it has a latch that can be operated with one hand, it uses pressure pads at the top of the bottom of each end, it has several additional detachable sections for accommodating different sized holes. The devil is in the details and these goals get many details right. Firstly the extension sections - they fit STRONGLY

I have 2 of these goals. The first one was perfect and when we needed a second goal after moving in, I rushed to buy our second one. However, in the second case there is a downside. Our second gate had a problem closing or opening. This could be fixed with some oil but I am deducting a star as they were brand new. What makes these goals great: They are attractive to look at. Unlike other single door gates, this door is actually spacious and does not require people to pass through. Funny…

I wrote a review below because the gate flexes in overtime. I spoke to the manufacturer of the grille (SummerInfant.com) and they sent me a replacement grille and a return label so I could ship it back. Excellent customer service and for that I give four stars. I like the goal but not the crease in the goal section and the overtime. Preview: The point where the extension meets the gate flexes and can't seem to pull it hard enough to keep it from flexing. Where the mental stakes enter the gate…

This gate is AWESOME. I use it to keep my dogs halfway around the house while I'm at work and this gate does the job perfectly. I love that it swings in every direction you walk so you don't have to step back to open the gate. I'm sure that sounds fishy, but it's just an added convenience these gates offer. I also like that part of the gate is a few inches wider than many gates. When I'm at home I can leave the gate fully open and it doesn't bother me at all to walk down the hall. If I have a…

My rating is based on owning this product and using it daily for the last 6 weeks. I will say that the overall style and look of the gate is great. However, I bought two of these gates to separate our living room as our twins are traveling. The first gate I installed I noticed that the wooden door was a bit warped. However, it opened, closed and still functioned as intended. The next gate I installed was so warped that when the handle was locked the locking device on the underside would not…

Looks like our little Houdini of babies. As we lay her on our bed, no matter how many pillow and blanket barricades I put in her way, she seems to manage to get past them to practice her platform diving skills. On her first day in her playpen she seems to have noticed how great the door works and every now and then when I'm there with her she leaves it and then locks me in :) Lately she's fascinated by the kitchen . When her mom and I cook there, she seems to enjoy crawling there. Our kitchen…
