Still going strong!
I've had this gate for several years. I put it up as needed in a wide doorway to keep smaller kids contained in our playroom. It has held up well and is quick and easy to put into place if you keep it adjusted for a single location. I used it when my youngest was small, and now when friends with little ones come to visit, it is great to pull out and put up in seconds...

Sorry, just didn't work for us
I was grateful to have received this baby gate from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I wanted to love it but we just couldn't see how it would benefit us in any way. It wasn't adjustable to our knowledge since the mesh part wouldn't be taut then. I will try to find some use for it. However, I was really looking forward to it since we were doing an extended stay with f...

Portable and easy to use!
This gate is very nice for a tension gate. Overall, the range of size and portability makes this gate worth it. Easily used in the home and traveling. (I do not use this at the bottom or top of stairs as it is not safe).Pros:- great color/look, very modern and would fit in any home- good size, very portable (even for travel)- easy to adjust size once assembled- top is p...

Awesome gate!
I've been looking for a baby gate for a while. I have strange, wide hallways and door openings in my home. Because of this, it has been very hard finding a gate that could extend long enough. I was very excited to see if this gate would finally be the one for us. This gate is very simple to set up and surprisingly lightweight. The instructions are quick and very easy to...

Too big
I got this product for free from Stellar Panel Product Review. I like that that gate was mesh and easy to see baby, but it it was either too small or to big for where I tried to put it. I tried my son’s room and it wouldn’t fit in the door way. It was also hard to push it in to get in to position to go into the area.

Simple and Versatile
We set up this gate between our kitchen and dining area. We previously had a gate that opened and closed there, and honestly the shorter fabric gate we can walk over has been more useful. We have a lot of wide openings in our house so we appreciate how far this extends- but in many cases it’s still too short for us to use. There was some trouble with the initial set up ...

He was unable to figure it out. Then I tried, while having two kids running and screaming as most mothers do, I was also unable to figure it out. My husband finally came home and was able to ge...

Great Affordable Gate for Wide Hallways.
This is a great wide gate to fit larger hallways. I love that it doesn’t need any permanent hardware on the walls and the top and bottom expand independently to accommodate baseboards. The pads don’t mark the walls even when being slid into place along the walls. We have been using it for both our Golden Retriever and 21 month old daughter. I like the look of this baby ...

I was given this baby gate to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I was looking for a baby gate that would fit with wide door frames, was sturdy, and easy to clean. This gate has all of that and more. The Pros: fits wide frames, sturdy and durable - my son really pushed all over this thing and it held firm, easy to clean even with just a spot clean, functi...

Fantastic Wide babygate
I received the Soft & Wide evenflo Room Divider Gate as part of the Stellar Product testing review panel. This product is an extra wide baby gate but is best served as a room divider or hallway blocking device. As a father of 3 girls, I have had exposure to several different types and styles of baby gates over the last few years. Everything from the traditional wood sty...

I received the Soft and Wide Baby Gate as part of a promotion from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This gate is a great way to keep my active toddler corralled without setting up a big clunky gate. I love how easy it is to assemble and break down for travel (hello safer family vacations!). I feel confident that my strong 15 month old cannot push this over, which has ...

Baby gate keeps toddlers at bay
First for the good. This gate is probably the most well made gate I have used. It's sturdy and feel solid where most gates to me feel a bit thin and flimsy to me. The gate can fit a large span which was a bonus for me as I just moved into a new house and needed to keep my toddler away from the stairs. The gate has significant padding that covers the metal poles which is...

Portable gate that takes up minimal storage space
The Evenflo Soft n’ Wide gate is very portable! Unlike other bulky gates, this gate comes apart to become compact, making it a reasonable travel gate (think AirBnB or a trip to the grandparent’s house). No more having to find space to store all those panel gates. Assembling takes a few minutes and only requires 1 person. I was able to quickly put it together and block o...

Amazing option for travel!
I received this as part of the Stellar Review Panel. This baby gate is super compact when stored and easy to travel with. We visited my parents, who have a wider staircase, and we were able to pop this together easy breezy. I like the design and the fabric is an added bonus. I’m excited to use this in our own home, and have it as an easy option for road trips and visiti...

Great flexible multi-use baby gate
The Soft and Wide Baby Gate is an excellent gate that serves more than one purpose. Of course it's great to keep your little ones corralled in one room or away from certain areas of your home - but it also good for pets too. The gate is flexible and easy to set up. Just insert the bars into the gate mesh and extend the ends to the desired length and you're done. I reall...

Evenflo Soft and Wide Gate
Overall, this is a nice quality room divider gate. The fabric seems sturdy, but it’s hard to say how the mesh would hold up over time. My 19 month old enjoyed running his little hands across it- it doesn’t seem all that easy to clean- if his hands happened to have something sticky on them I’m not sure I’d be able to get the mesh thoroughly clean. Initial setup (getting ...

Evenflo Soft and Wide Baby gate
The Evenflo soft and wide baby gate is a multipurpose gate. I like that is can be reduced in size to fit multiple areas. It can be used for both pets and children. I have both and use it as a gate for our play area. It takes awhile to figure out the setup and how to adjust the springs to hold it in place. However, once you understand the concept it is very easy to move ...

Great fireplace barrier!
When I first received the soft fabric baby gate from the stellar panel, I was excited then quickly got worried and disappointed that it wasn’t really a gate as there was nothing to open and close or go through it. Well, then suddenly I realized it was great for places where I didn’t want the baby to reach so I installed it in front of fireplace glass door (we don’t use ...
