> 3 dayI purchased this Evenflo baby gate because we purchased a new home and don’t want our large dogs (136 pounds being the heaviest) scratching the paint and wood of the doors at the nice house like they have done at our old house. The gate comes in 6 sections of panels with a connecting hinge between each, so it can completely encircle something. There is a white “button” or mechanism on the top of the hinge that you have to press really hard and then muscle it apart. If I had to find a critique about this baby gate, it would be that it is difficult to disassemble. For me, I only had to do it twice (once for each section), so it wasn’t a problem. The hinges snap to a variety of positions, which makes them very stable. If they didn’t snap to the different angles, they would be easier to collapse by putting pressure on the corners or sides. I was able to use the one gate I ordered to form a barrier around the single side porch door, and the remaining four panels to surround the double back doors. The panels are tall enough that the dogs see it as a barrier, and it was easy to train them to avoid it, but short enough that I can lean over it to put food down. The gate is light and stable enough that I can reposition it with one hand without it collapsing. Overall, we are extremely satisfied with our purchase and highly recommend this Evenflo pet/baby gate. 5/5 stars

> 3 dayThe last one of these I bought, was to keep puppies away from the Christmas tree. So I figured it would work to keep them from getting to close to the brooder with the baby chicks in it. It works perfectly. The dogs can still see the chicks but can’t get right up to them and scare them. A few weeks later when the chicks went outside in the front yard in a chicken tractor during the day, I took it out and put it around that too. Again, works perfectly. It’s easy to adjust the size by removing a panel if needed. And it’s sturdy enough to not worry about it being tipped over yet light enough to easily carry it to wherever you need to put it. And it folds flat without any difficulty. The fact that it folds flat makes storage much easier. My dogs are rat terriers so they are on the smaller side. 1 weighs about 20 lbs and is not terribly tall, maybe 10”. Her brother is quite a bit bigger, about 30 lbs and early 3-5” taller. They have stood on their hind legs, front feet on the top of this play yard and with the back side secured against the wall or in our case, the wood stove there was no worries it would move. And though they could look over the top of it and into the brooder, they couldn’t jump over. If you had a dog that was a jumper by nature it might not be tall enough to keep them from going over the top but in our case, one is a bit chubby and not much into jumping. His sister is more so but she was too short to get over it. So if you want to keep something inside the yard safe from whatever, I recommend this. This is the second one we’ve had in the last 12 yrs ( would still have the first one of it hadn’t been loaned out and their dogs hadn’t chewed it all up. All in all, sturdy, easy to use and move and good quality for many many years of use for a large variety of things.

> 3 dayEverything about it, its true to design and description. It works for what I need it to do. Chloe hates it. Got to set boundaries.

> 3 dayThis is a good play area for a 6-10 month old. This is made for a child that is not too active. My grandson is pulling up and the pen is a little unstable and he is 8 months. I use it indoors.

> 3 dayI have used a few different fences, as a mom and grandma and this is my favorite one. I found eight sections is awesome, if you have the room for that many panels. It is the easiest to fold up and to open like a gate on any section. Plus I love that it has those steaks you can pull out and put in the bottom of each connection when using it outside on the grass. Good for indoors and outdoors. I would highly recommend.

> 3 dayRight price and serves purpose of what I purchased it for. To keep crawling baby in and nosey dogs out. U get for what u pay for in that its not overly sturdy and need to either keep it in the octagon shape and/or put something with weight against it to hold both sides up straight or whatever shape u put it in. I thought the price of sturdier ones was a little much and did not have space to store the larger plastic barriers with doors and what not. This product does not have door but can unhook easily. Plastic hid away stakes are nice to put in ground or on beach to keep kids in. Very portable and can come apart and/or fold away easily/slide under bed/couch in closet to store away which is why I bought it for my smaller apartment. Space is limited. There are a few pics of it in and out of box and I just threw up real quick in the area Im going to use it for. Dont take too much out of it, just propped up, not how I would have it for when my daughter is actually crawling around in living room, but u get the idea...

> 3 dayThis is perfect for indoor use the feet have rubber bottoms to grip but not damage floors. For outdoor use the feet pop out and the opposite end is sinkable to secure on the lawn. Great for toddlers and small pets. Folds up easy for travel or storing.
