We use this gate to limit access at the bottom of our stairs, which is an important to us. First off, I love that it comes with a storage/carrying case. It comes in handy if we remove the gate for guests.  I also love the design of this gate.  The colors and see through panel look great and are good quality.  Lastly,  this gate is sturdy!  When it's up, it doesn't budge. It definitely keeps our little one safe.
