Great gate. We are using it for our dogs (Boxer, Chihuahua, Pomeranian). It keeps them secured effectively, yet they can still see us through the mesh. They retract away out of sight so there are no unsightly gates scattered about or to store when not in use. The extra hardware to mount in alternate locations makes this system very flexible to create multiple containment areas without needing to purchase additional units. They are easy to install and are very sturdy.
