I use this gate to block off my family room to the kitchen.. The entry is 70 in wide. One side tucks 
in behind my buffet table  about 3 inches and the other side swings into the wall. This makes the 
gate very sturdy to enter in and out of the gate door. I have had so many compliments from
family and friends. My dog is a miniature Australian Shepherd 23 lbs. I have had the gate 1 yr and 
notice now ,that  even if the door is open he waits on the other side for permission to enter the
kitchen. The second photo represents the true color of the gate.


 

Pros:  Good value , easily assembled. Walk through gate. Creates an open look between rooms.
Cons:  Was looking for a dark brown or pine but really have no concerns about the color.
