I have a 19 month old so this is great with keeping her in one spot. I use it at the bottom of the stairs and she hasn’t been able to get on them with it. It was really easy to set up and didn’t require any tools. It has a little bag with it to store it when not in use which is great for traveling. I really like it so far. The only issue is my dog gets stuck on the stairs behind the gate lol and I have to move it to let him down. It’s also pretty light weight so I wouldn’t be concerned if it did fall over for some reason.
