This gate exceeded my expectations. It’s very sturdy and doesn’t rattle, squeak, or wobble. The latch is a cute little cat paw and operates very smoothly. And the white color helps it blend seamlessly with the wall and trim. We’ve been looking for a solution to help separate two cats that don’t get along, and this is perfect. The directions were pretty easy to follow and it took less than an hour to put together and install. If you’re on the fence, go ahead and get it. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
