This gate works better than I had imagined. The hardware is sturdy and strong, and the netting is impossible for the cats to climb. My elderly cat can now engage with the younger ones without constant harassment. It also gives the younger cats the opportunity to interact with her safely, rather than just sniffing at her under a closed door, which would only overexcite them when they would encounter her--thereby leading to the chasing and general harassment. This gate gives everyone their protected space while also allowing them to engage as they like. The house has been much more peaceful since installing this gate. Plus, I can open and close it without needing to climb over anything and risking injury to myself. It's been win-win all around. Great product that I easily installed by myself using the video instructions.

I do like this gate! We adopted two new kittens and wanted to keep them separated from our senior cat while they were all getting adjusted to one another. This helped us to do gradual introductions while separating them at night or unsupervised times. I like that they can also see, hear and smell one another through the gate which is more helpful that a solid door. It also helps us to see what is happening on both sides of the gate. This worked well on our stairwell as well, where a swinging pet door wouldn't work. It did take a while to assemble, but there are online video instructions which was helpful. A big picture of how all the pieces fit together though might be even more helpful if they could add this in the future, although we eventually figured it out. Overall, I think it's a great product for cats!

A life saver...hers. Real peace of mind...
