Highlighted Reviews
"I have never seen a more beautiful pet gate for such a great price! I am going to order another one for another hallway. It can be adjusted since the ends fold so can go many different lengths. Also-- these are great since they easily collapse for storage or travel!"
"I bought 2 of these gates & they only lasted 2 weeks before they came unhinged. They look ok but don’t function. I bought the gates to block off doorways for my 8 week old puppy & they only lasted 2 weeks. I never leave feedback on products but I don’t want anyone else to waste their money!"
Bottom Line
Avoid if safety and durability are important.
