Baby Products Reviews of Evenflo Crosstown Soft Portable Travel Gate
Customer Review: Does its job
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased 2 gates from Amazon, this one from Evenflo, and the Summer Tall Infant Gate. I loved the Summer Tall Deocrative Walk Through Gate, gave it 5 stars, and I also like this one. This one i bought so i can take with me when I go to my parents house. Its pretty easy to set up, it stands firm, and its just as easy to take down and fold right back into the travel bag it comes with. Only downside is that there is no door u can walk through, you have to simply step over it. But if your looking for a gate thats easy to set up, take down, and travel with, this would be the gate for you. And if your looking for a sturdy gate that stays put, ill recommend the Summer walk through gate.Customer Review: Great gate, easy to use.
Summary: 5 Stars
Although the gate says it's not intended for use with pets, it's been an almost perfect solution for use with our dog. I had a terrible time trying to find an affordable pet gate large enough for the opening into our dining room (58"). All the pet gates that were large enough were $65 or more. This was only $33! It's lightweight, easy to use and covers the opening well. And it would be perfect for traveling, too! The only downside is that it is much taller than necessary for our Jack Russell terrier, and we cannot step over it. If we try to set it up to be shorter, it leaves gaps at the sides. Other than that, though, it has been perfect. Yay!!! :-)Customer Review: Works great!

We have a one year old that we need to keep out of the office. There is a 59" opening and I was having a hard time finding a gate that would work for it... This gate does a fantastic job!! I was concerned when I read reviews that said that it didn't work in a 59-60" space, but I find that hard to believe if you FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY!!! I tried to put it up with "common sense" first and found that it wouldn't "fit"... but when I sucked it up and got out the instructions sheet (which is what it is there for!!) it went up just fine and I did it by myself (well my one year old did "help" some). Great find, in my opinion/experience!!Customer Review: Awkward and difficult to install
Summary: 1 Stars
I was looking for something for our wide opening. This does fit, however, it is horrible to manage. Putting it up and taking it down are a nightmare. The buttons are under the slippery fabric and very stiff and hard to push. The adjustments can also be difficult to make because of the slippery fabric. Forget trying to do it with kids around. As a small woman, I found it to be incredibly awkward to move and install. A pack and play is much easier for me to handle than this gate. I don't recommend this gate. I would return it but it comes in a heavy and long box and would cost more than I'm willing to pay to send it back.Customer Review: Not Worth the Hassle
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this gate because it was so cheap, it covered the space I needed it to, and because my 1 year old likes to bang his head against things (I know, strange phase we're going through currently). However, the little rubber ends that go on the wall/frame caused the paint to crack or rubbed it off AND the gate won't stay on the wall! It is constantly slipping down. Plus, this gate is a pain to take on and off. No good! Now I have to re-paint AND buy a new gate.
p.s. If you are putting this gate on a framed doorway that would probably be best, I DO NOT recommend on a painted wall!
