We have 5 of these gates in our home, we love it that much. If you aren't into tripping through metal or wood safety gates all the time and want something aesthetically pleasing and easy to clean, this is finally your solution.
Once you figure out how to operate the button - yes, with one hand - you just push your body "through" the gate to give some slack and then unhook it. I think the trick is just figuring this out!! Many parents have posted they can't figure out how to operate w/ one hand - - it really DOES work. Also, there was a post about molding. We just mounted a 1/2cm taller to go above the molding. A matchbox car can get under but the child can't.
We do have an old home, plaster walls, and thick baseboard molding. So we mount a vertical board (and paint it white to match the molding) onto the wall, then mount the "hooks" onto that. Works like a charm.
We keep the kids enclosed in or out of various areas of the home - play room area, kitchen area, family room, top of basement steps, etc.
I can't say more things about this amazing gate. When we have friends over or are leaving a particular area of our home and no longer need the gate up, we leave it rolled up and have a lovely view (no gate). When the kids are around, gates are unrolled and we are in business and safe. We also use the gate to block off the kitchen from our dog when we are having guests in the dining or living rooms (before the gate, our dog started eating the Thanksgiving turkey on the kitchen counter)..
I love these things. I am thinking about getting 2 more (one to block stairs up to the attic, and another in the upstairs hallway...Oh, I can't wait.
