I purchased 2 of these gates because I was looking for wood gates with an oak finish.  For the price of these, I would expect nothing less than good workmanship.  The first gate had one panel that the top corner chipped (and it wasn't a result of shipping), on a 2nd panel, the wood was cracked where the post went into the wood, and the foot on the 3rd panel must have been stripped because it wouldn't stay in the panel.  Lastly, they are supposed to be oak, but the finish is more of an "orangy" tint rather than what I would expect from oak.  The other gate had one panel the wood was warped.  Overall, it's just ok and not what I would have expected for the price.
