PawHut Freestanding Pet Gate Safety Barrier 3 Pannel w/ Support Feet White

Not very robust, but does the job fine and is stable and looks good. Easy to assemble

Good frame, easy to put together. Bit shorter than we hoped but that’s our fault. Frame could be a tiny bit sturdier

Being a lady of a certain age, I wondered if I would need help but I easily put this together, and really got the benefit of it during last summer. I was able to set it in a U shape and fit it in the recess of my front door, thereby letting the fresh air into my home and stopping my dogs from accessing the front garden and then the road. It has various uses, is sturdy and great value for money.

Functionally the product is okay for what I needed (a way to block access for a small dog without blocking all the light) however the finish is so bad it’s actually pretty shocking, and I don’t have high standards for things bought on Amazon.The panels are held together by small screws which are already placed when it arrives (you only assemble the screws to hold the three panels together) and just about every corner had screws that were sticking out at an angle, not flat and flush with the surface. Definitely not the safest.The holes on the sides of the panels which you use to attach the hinges were not aligned. Close but not accurate making it hard to get the screws in and means the bottom of the 3 panels aren’t 100% aligned. I’m using it on carpet so that’s not a deal breaker but it would be on a hard surface floor.The wood/MDF is painted but not sealed and the surfaces are rough with the odd crack, splinter, or sharp edge of wood sticking out. The paint has spots missing, some areas where it’s clearly rubbed off, and places where the paint has cracked because the joins of the wood/MDF aren’t aligned properly.The external box it arrived in was very well sealed but inside everything was dusty and dirty. One of the stability feet had an adhesive mark on it that had yellowed and generally it’s just horrible quality.There are two reasons I’m keeping it:One, I’m disabled with mobility problems and I just can’t be bothered to go through the returns process which is almost always a nightmare with items that were not dispatched by Amazon. When the weather gets a bit better I’ll probably try sanding, repainting, and sealing the gate with a few coats of varnish so at least it’s not so rough looking and feeling).Two, my dog won’t touch the gate so it’s not a danger to him that the finish is not smooth/sealed. He just needs the visual barrier and he’ll leave it alone. If he was the type of dog who’d sniff and paw at it or rub himself against it then I definitely wouldn’t use it because of the rough and sharp areas and the exposed, lopsided screw heads.Overall really disappointing quality and definitely not worth the nearly £60 it cost.

Pros: Easy to assemble and looked quite pretty once first made.Cons: Not really fit for purpose.Sadly it only lasted 3 weeks, due to our miniature cockapoo puppy chewing through one of the spokes. We patched this up with thick tape which prolonged it's usage for another couple of weeks. Our pup also learnt how to move the gate at the hinges and sneak out of the puppy proofed area this way. We managed to use weights to secure the gate further for some time but ultimately the nudging to get out resulted cracks through the wood (see the photo).Note the product description states not for destructive dogs and I would point out that none of our other furniture has been gnawed or destroyed in any way, so I wouldn't call our puppy overly destructive in nature!I wouldn't recommend this product, in hindsight I would go for something heavier and metallic or constructed with harder wood, in order to keep our puppy in a secure room whilst toilet training etc.

I wish I’d bought these sooner. Ideal for my small dog as a barrier to move as required. I split in 2, with one single and 1 double.

Was delivered with a damaged box and there are cracks in the structure of the gate and poorly fitted screws in brackets with sharp edges. Only kept it due to needing a gate to contain our newly walking daughter. Very poor for price.

Very easy to put together and looks stylish. We didn’t want a stair gate to not look pretty and this looks really nice and is very sturdy and well made. It’s made of wood, painted white so could be repainted to match your interior colour scheme really easily. It’s designed to be multi positional which is very handy. Very happy with this purchase and would recommend to anyone who wants to keep their little dog downstairs and do it beautifully!
