Safety 1stEasy Install Auto-Close Gate

The lock won't unlock rubbish don't buy only had 4 weeks

I would not buy this gate again

The gate was easy to install, closes behind pretty quick to keep baby out. However after about a week the top button broke making it very difficult to open one handed. I have to push the button down with 2 hangs squeeze the bottom button and shake the gate up and down till it opens. Not very helpful when you have a sleeping baby in your arms and you want to take them to bed.

Poor design and/or instructions

This gate only works if you manage to get everything perfectly aligned. Following the instructions results in a latch that will not open or will not lock. Unbelievably frustrating. We'll be taking ours back and getting something that operates properly.

Ouch!

It's definitely sturdy but it is too hard to unlatch. We have it at the top of our stairs so we have to go through it several times a day. After a day, the joints in your hand hurt after needing to use so much hand strength to open the latch. I am due with my 2nd baby and don't think we will be able to keep the gate there because I won't be able to open it one handed.

Best gate!

This gate is perfect for 2nd entrance into the kitchen. Love the automatic closing magnetic latch feature. Makes it easy to open with one hand. Easy to install =)

This gate should be on every baby registry!

Our daughter turned 10 months old today and is seriously on the move! She's days away from walking and we were in a panic about her getting into dangerous areas of the house. Just like the name, it's easy to install. My husband had it up in 10 min from box to finish. I like the auto close feature since my hands are usually full. The design is also great and blends in well with our kitchen and dining area. This should be added to registries so parents have one ready to go before panic sets in!

So convenient!

This gate was very easy to install. We placed it by our stairs to keep the little one from falling. The automatic close feature is so helpful - you never have to worry about forgetting to close it! It's also easy to open when you only have one hand available!

Easy to Install - Hard to Open

The gate is very easy to install and the auto close feature is great. However, the buttons on the child safety lock are very hard to press and makes the gate very hard to open. We find ourselves stepping over it because it is easier than trying to open it.
