We got this gate as it was easier than many to open when holding a sleeping baby however when baby became a toddler its design fell short. We now often leave the gate open between rooms however running toddler often stubs his toe and breaks toenail on the too high metal floor base. Also latch has a plastic prong sticking out from its side that toddler often runs into when running and turning etc that is actually quite dangerous as it is around face height. Also my toddler is always leaning and sometimes gets his knee wedged between the wood poles as they move ever so slightly with a bit of pressure. Also with extensions it is harder to align the gate latch which affects smoothness of opening but this is a minor issue. We also had to use the base rod to make the gate go one directional as without it he would lean and push the base of the wooden gate quite some distance from the metal base which caused us concern but it has been sturdy to date.
