Customer Reviews of Kiddy Guard Gate

I bought this item 3 times over
I love this gate! I purchased my first gate to block off the stairs outside going down from our deck. Then we moved and I purchased two more of this same gate. This time for inside our home, one at the top of the stairs and the other at the bottom. I love how the gate is retractable for times when our baby is asleep and we don't need one in our way. I also feel confident that my children can not push, pull or tear it apart. My only complaint is the button is sometimes sticky...meaning it has to be pushed in just right to open the gate. If we move again and I need another gate...I'll keep purchasing this model.

Love this gate!
This gate is great! I had a really difficult time finding a wall mounted gate that fit my stairs. Then I found this one, and it is just perfect. One of the best features is that it retracts, so it's not in the way.

great idea, crappy instructions
I bought two of these gates because I love the idea of it being out of the way. One area was the top of the steps which has no room for a swing gate whatsoever. The opening is wider than the space between the steps and the wall behind it. Also another one for a hallway that I only rarely use so I didn't want to be fighting with the free-swinging gate 99% of the time. <

>The instructions SUCK. They are also in four different languages, so you might miss some things. However installation is really pretty straightforward. Once I did one, I had the other one up in 20 minutes without even looking back at the directions. <

>The gate CAN be opened one handed, if you read the instructions! On the last page, it tells you how. You do the the button push down/in/out tango, and then you can let go, and the gate is unlocked and you have one shot at connecting it. Ditto opening it. It's one extra step but once I figured that out I like it a lot better. If you miss, you have to retract it and try again. With practice you'll be doing it on the first shot. <

>This is probably not a gate for high traffic areas where you're going to be doing it 100 times a day, it would drive me nuts! <

>I've found that if I grab the roll and turn it to make it click tighter once more, the gate will be more taught and harder for a child to get under it. I tried to get under it and I don't see my 21 month old fitting under it if I tighten it by grabbing the roll. I think my younger baby will be too big to fit under it before he can figure out that he might be able to do that. <

>This gate can hold weight, my installation is SOLID, however the weak point in the gate is the little holes in the edge of the gate itself that catch the hooks on the wall. <

>I really, really wish this was longer (and weather-proof)! It would be perfect for my front porch! <

>The handle is a pain. You have to install it based on which way you will use the gate. However, I would like a handle on BOTH sides! It's really hard to snap in, and if you have to remove it (either because you put it in wrong or because you want to move the gate to another location) then it's really difficult to get out. <
> <
>The instructions say "hardware allows gate to be easily removed" HA! There is no way this thing is coming off without a screwdriver. <
> <
>It makes a loud clicking sound when open or closed, but that's so you know it's happening! If you have it near where it would wake a sleeping baby, you can hold down the button while you're pulling it in/out and it will not make the noise. <

>The wall mount kit is just 2 plastic plates. This way you can insall the gate on a wall with moulding. It means you have to drill through your moulding since you can't move the mounts and the gate must be flush with the floor (or a child could really get under it) In my opinion the kit should be included, but is a $20 accessory. www.comfort1st.com is giving the kits away with the gate for free, and has free shipping (as of the writing of this review) You could just use a spare piece of thick plywood and some long screws. All that's included in this kit is extra long screws and a pretty plastic plate that matches all the other hardware. <
