Who ever designed this gate has no clue what to expect from a 1 year old child. This gate is all look and no function. It looks great when you install it but had no strenght to resist a 13 month old child from pushing it in the middle and almost breaking it. If you plan on buying this gate be prepared to do a little bit of drilling and bolting to make it work. I was finally able to use the thing only after I bought four #8-32 x 1 3/4" long screws with matching washers and nuts and bolted the middle of the gate together. I did this by unscrewing the original connection at the middle of the gate and overlapped the pieces together about 6" then drilling two holes about 4" apart on the top and bottom rails and bolting together. It works! But it's not what someone should have to do after spending thie price for something. Good luck!!!

I recently purchased this gate, as I needed a gate for a space that is 93 inches wide. I was so happy when I found this, and for the price! Well, I installed it with no problem at all. But it is not secure. It actually bends forward and backward with barely any pressure and when my daughter leaned against it, the wooden dowels that hold the bars together actually started to break. AWFUL and very unsafe!!! Target.com was very helpful in sending UPS to pick it up.

I recently purchased this gate for an opening in my home that is 68 inches wide. Within one week of use, the wood splintered apart in the center rendering it completely unusable. I am returning the gate and puchasing the more expensive metal type. This gate is a perfect example of getting what you pay for.

Enjoy the video.

Video taken with a Blackberry Bold 9700, which doesn't have that great of a camera, and the mic is even worse, so I apologize for the sporadic volume.

When it comes to using this for your children you'd have to first know what your needs are. I can't imagine it stopping any determined child without some reinforcing; it would be more like a psychological barrier. But depending on their temperament and age it may be good to deter them from getting to things they shouldn't have.

I ordered this to use for my puppy. In my case I don't have the problem of her pushing on it so I can't say how long it would last through that. For this price I was quite happy with the quality and it was amazingly simply to install.
