My wife asked me to "go get some stair gates" once our monkey learned to crawl and terrify us on a minute by minute basis. I ended up buying this one together with Summer Infant's more expensive Auto Lock Wood Pressure Gate and this Lindam item is very obviously the lesser of the two - and not just in price.
To begin with, it's adjusted by turning a nut. Unlike the Summer Infant gate, which has four large knurled hand screws, you must use a spanner to fit and remove the Lindam. The spanner is supplied but it's annoyingly small and uncomfortable and moreover is just something else to lose. We've found our gates need regular tightening and adjustments and where it takes five seconds to tweak the Summer Infant it takes five minutes to sort the Lindam.
Then there's the problem of the lower stopper, which when rotated can prevent the gate clicking shut or ensure it opens in one direction only. Our experience is that we would much rather have a lower fastener because our monkey has already learned he can bend the bottom half of the gate out by at least an inch if he pulls (or pushes) hard enough. That's easily enough to get his fingers in between wood and metal, and I dread to think what'll happen if he does. In contrast, the Summer Infant item latches with a 'click' into place at the top and at the bottom meaning all sides of the gate are secured - I'm astonished no other reviewer has mentioned this rather startling deficiency on the Lindam.
Lastly, we have a dog. While we can use the lower catch to stop the gate clicking shut, the spring mechanism still keeps it closed and this thwarts every effort made by non-humans to get through. We had to prop the gate open with a chair at night - as already mentioned, dismantling it on a regular basis is really not an option - and after only a week the spring lost all its strength so the gate now flaps about in the breeze. A method of removing the effects of the spring when not needed will be near the top of any pet owner's wishlist.
In summary then:
PROS
Good looking and well made.
Top latch is a doddle to use and secures with a satisfying 'ker-chunk'.
CONS
Must be fitted, adjusted and removed with the aid of a spanner.
Bottom edge of the gate not secured in any way. A major hazard for fingers and feet.
No way of disconnecting the spring-shut mechanism (e.g. to allow pets through).
Most tellingly of all, would I or my wife recommend YOU as a parent buy one for your home? NO.

As a single mother I was dreading having to put together yet another piece of safety equipment, whilst keeping an eye on the baby, on my own. This gate is brilliant, there's no major screwing together of pieces and the clue is definitely in the title of "easy fit"!
The gate itself makes a reassuring clunk sound when it is closed and is much more elegant than some of the tacky looking white plastic gates on the market. You press and slide a button to open the gate (sounds a bit complicated but isn't!)& it swings in one direction. There is even a little latch at the bottom to stop the gate closing completely if, say for example, you're going back and forth between rooms and need your hands free.
I'd definitely recommend it, for this price you can't go wrong. Be warned though, when you first put the gate up there will be a gap between the bar and the gate, there is a sticker on the gate that tells you this gap will disappear as the gate is tightened, but my friend completely missed the sign and thought it was a design fault!

This is such a great gate ! It is really easy to install, but most importantly, it is so easy to use. Easily opened with 1 hand, and even closes itself to the lock position without me having to do anything ! It is also very sturdy, as my son can happily pull himself up on it, and it stays in place nicely - we havent even drilled into the walls, as we just use the pressure kit. A truly great product !

Safety Gate
Good looking gate, especially if you have wooden floors. The catch on the bottom is a little difficult to sort out and wears away at the bottom rail very quickly.

Lindam Easy gate
Bought this for the dog! Arrived quickly, easy it install, and the added bonus, the gate is sprung loaded, so that fooled her - great if you've got your hands full.
