This is a good  item. It's solid wood and the same color as the furniture in my house I paid $32 for something that looks better than the plastic baby gate I was using to keep my dogs out of the living room.   The only problem is that my clever Cairn Terier figured out how to push one side open with her nose  So , I'm back to putting some type of heavy item against one end , just  like Idid with the baby gate so she can't open it.   I wish it had some type of latch that kept it in place once you opened it to the desired width.
