I am extremely pleased with my purchase.  I read the mixed reviews prior to purchase but it was the perfect size for the area I am trying to block off from pets so I ordered it.  It's a perfect solution for my problem - love the color and love the compactness when it's folded down when not in use.  It does require some stability "help" on the ends IF you use it straight across and not with the sides angled.  But other than that I am quite pleased.  Fits my bill to a "T"!
