Safety 1st Wide Doorways Fabric Pet Gate

I have wasted way too much time trying to put this thing together. It is a simple task but the rubber at the end of each tension rod keeps getting stuck on something as I try to thread it through the top and bottom channels. I am soooooo frustrated!! I think I'm going to have to spray something on the rubber just to get it to slide easily through the channel. I thought the material may have been accidentally sewn together inside the channel and that's why the tension rods kept getting stuck midway, so I slid the end rods through just to see if they fit all the way and yes they do. It is just the daggum rubber on the tension rods that is my headache. I may end up sending it back if I can't get I have wasted way too much time trying to put this thing together.

I needed a gate to fit a 60" gap on my front porch, so I could comfortably enjoy my swing without worrying that my dog would bolt after someone on the sidewalk. This was the only gate advertised to stretch that far. And it does, technically. But once it gets past about 50" the fabric pulls so taut that everything starts to twist. I can use the gate, though! And I do. But if my dog ever challenged it, he could easily knock it down. So, though I'm on the porch swinging, I gotta keep a close eye on him.... On the plus side, like everything from Chewy, the gate was shipped right away and I found it very easy to assemble. It's light and easy to move from place to place.

This would be a great product if you could slide the poles through without them consistently getting caught and then you end up tearing fabric to get the poles loose. You would think the manufacture would make sure there was nothing to catch the poles within the slots but both top and bottom consistently get caught in both directions. Very, very frustrating!

The fabric panel that serves as the gate is poorly sewn. The tubes are impossible to pull over the poles. I had to cut the fabric tubes to pull it through because I was determined to get them from one side to the other. Unfortunately the whole reason I got it was because it looked nice and want my home looking good. This product is now against the wall in the garage. I don’t recommend

Pet gate is exactly as described. It fit our needs perfectly. Gate assembly is easy if you follow the directions, but use a plastic sleeve over the horizontal rods to facilitate rod passage or you will get frustrated.

I thought it would be able to hold back my 2 dogs when the door bell rang. Not strong enough. They are small poodle mix and boarder/bulldog mix.

Got this gate for a wide doorway in my house that I always have trouble finding gates for. Assembly was a bit cumbersome, particularly getting the rubberized ends of the poles through the fabric. However, it installed in the doorway pretty easily and was surprisingly sturdy once in. I just adopted a 54 pound dog who did jump up on it a few times, and it took a little bit for her to be able to knock it out of the doorway.

This gate is not easy to move between doorways or even put up and down. I wouldn’t recommend as it is more of a pain to use than it is helpful. The spring is difficult to tighten when putting it up and easily falls over.

Easy to install,great that it goes to 60 inches. Would definitely recommend to buy

Unfortunately this was too short for my cat and she could easily jump over it.
