I've been using this gate for about 6 weeks now to keep my 60ish lb dog upstairs. The gate is only rated for a small dog, so my girl could easily push it out of the way if desired. Please don't tell her lol!The gate looks great, is a little wobbly but not so it causes issues, and the door is very handy.For convenience, the door can be locked open as needed by opening it all the way in either direction.The thing I like most about the door is after I go thru it, I just gently swing it shut behind me and it latches on its own.I like the swinging ends too. I have one side propped against the wall to the right of the stairway to close that end off, and the other side is opened farther, proper against a little table so our cat can make a clean escape underneath the table and down the stairs when she wants to.This gate is super versatile. I'd been looking for it for at least a year.My only suggestion would be a latch system to open the door rather than having to lift the door, that could still enable swinging shut behind. Doesn't seem like it would be that difficult to do.New addition: I've owned this gate for about 8 months now. No problems. I'm as happy with it as the day I got it. We do try to be a little gentle with it, and rarely do we have any need to move it around. It just stays in place and opens and closes many times a day.
