Summary: Terrible. Bad inevery way 2008-05-31
Comment: First, the installation is horrible. The screw templates are wrong, the instructions difficult (and wrong in places). Only uses 3 screws on one side. Screws on that side have narrow heads and no washers quickly breaking the wood and being secured only part way in.
It wont open all the way if it's not at the very corner of the wall. Since the entire thing swings open, it blocks the entire hallway when open,making it difficult to get passed (you have to close it, then squeeze by to open it passed you to get through)
Very hard to open with 1 hand. Doesn't accommodate baseboard moldings on both sides.
Loud to close, being at the top of the stairs near the kids' room this is a huge minus.

Summary: Looks great and works great 2008-05-10
Comment: This baby gate is wonderful. We have had it up for two years with no problems. My husband did have to make a wooded piece to mount the gate to since our stairway is plaster and brick. The gate has never given us any problems. It matches our 80 year-old hair wood floors perfectly. We have the high chair and bassinet as well.

Summary: this gate is safety risk! 2008-01-31
Comment: After spending over an hour installing this gate because the template provided isn't accurate, I was very frustrated to find that the gate does not work properly or safely. The gate latches using spring loaded pins. It takes very little pressure to retract the pins making it possible to pull the gate open with little effort. Ironically, the gate is very difficult to open when you are using the intended method. The release latch doesn't fully eject the pins so you have to use your other hand (or a small kick) to open the gate. The clip that is supposed to attach the latch to the mounting bar is also faulty on our gate causing the entire latch unit to pull off of the mounting bracket each time we tried to open the gate.
This gate looks very nice, but I took it down the very next day because it is so poorly engineered. I wouldn't even use this for a dog much less trust it to keep my child safe.

Summary: Stay away from this door 2007-10-27
Comment: We bought two of these gates because we thought they looked nice. It has so many design problems, I'm not sure I'll be able to remember them all. In short:
* Screws are really cheap, even after pre-drilling holes per the instructions, they almost all stripped clean when just trying to install them.
* The opening mechanism is difficult to operate and because the opening action is in the same direction as locking the bracket into place, in one move you can practically take the door off.
* The hinge covers have no way to lock in place, so anyone (or anybaby or anydog) can also rip the door off its hinges with minimal effort.
* The screws that hold the adjustable section seem to be impossible to tighten correctly, which is bad because staying at the appropriate position is key to the door staying shut.
* It is designed to be able to throw the door closed, but it almost always needs your attention when trying to make it stay closed, which half the time will cause the door to come off its hinges.
We returned this gate and bought the Safety 1st Everywhere Safety Gate aka "All Clear Safety Gate", and it is better in every way.

Summary: Don't Bother 2007-09-14
Comment: I purchased this gate when my daughter was crawling. I wouldn't use this gate to keep a dog safe, never mind a child! Also, guests can never figure out how to get it open the right way. It is easier to just pull it open as a toddler would do, rather than correctly try to pull the tab up to open it. It never truely "locks or latches", any toddler can just pull it open. It often closes enough to look locked shut, then my daughter will walk by and pull it open with one hand. It does not latch shut is any way, it is sort of a magnetic lock. Really not a safe gate, especially for stairs and WAY too expensive. I thought the "Eddie Buauer" name and the price would ensure quality, it does not. I would purchase the Evenflo Top of Stair Gate instead. It is half the price, much better quality and you can use it in any doorway (not just stairs). Eddie Bauer's Gate is an accident waiting to happen!
