Safety 1st Espresso Swing Baby/Kid/Pet Security Gate

Hard to open and close and broke within first year, would NOT recommend

I have had this gate for less than a year and it is already broken. The gate stays closed but can't be opened as the plastic latch broke. Not worth the money as it does not last.

We bought this gate to install on our stairway to keep our dogs down on the main floor. It was very easy to adjust to size, and was easy to install. It looks great and the colour goes nicely with our decor!

Bought 3 of these a year ago. One came already broken (may have been a shipping issue) and had to be replaced. Installation is not overly difficult nor is it easy. IF you can get this thing mounted into "studs" it's durable, however, due to the construction of our place, two of the gates had to be mounted into drywall with anchors. With 2 little ones tugging on it now and then, one eventually loosened out of the wall. Made larger holes and got bigger anchors only to have the same thing happen! Second one broke the other day. This one was the release latch you have to pull up and out on, a task that is def not easy with one had (if carrying a child, groceries, etc). The latch snapped off and the gate now can't be unlocked. Only good thing about these is the look IMO. Otherwise, they're junk!

This gate looks good but the hardware included in the box is terrible quality. The screws were stripped by our drill before they even made it all the way into the wall. Do yourself a favor and buy your own screws before installing this.
