North States 3 in 1 Metal Superyard - 3 Gates in 1 Review
I ordered direct from Amazon. It arrived two days later from FedEx even though I selected Free Shipping. The outside cardboard was a little torn up, but the interior product package and product itself was unharmed and well packaged by the manufacturer.
I know they list the length, but this gate is really long. It would be too small for my son in an octagonal shape, but I stretched it across my family room to keep him penned in where the toys and play mat are. It is a little heavy, but very sturdy. It folds away easy and the use of the included paper template makes attaching it to the wall fairly simple. I think the price on Amazon was very reasonable for the product considering store competitors are charging almost more. Although it is a little taller at 30" in comparison to the plastic version by the same company, it is easy for my son to see through the bars when the TV is on.
If I had one minor gripe, and it is minor, the button you must push down to disengage the gate and open it is REALLY firm. It takes some hard thumb pressure to push it down and then you must lift up slightly to open the gate. I certainly don't think my 9 month old will be escaping that gate any time soon unless he learns to climb over. The best thing about it is that you can remove panels to make it smaller and you can move the panels around. I did this to place the gate in the center where it was more convenient for our use. Also, the gate closes automatically behind you and latches so there is little chance of "forgetting" to close it. That is nice. Overall, a worthy purchase, which I would do again.

A Safe and Sturdy Indoor-Outdoor Play YardWhether you need a temporary play space for your children or small pets or a reliable barricade for potentially unsafe areas such as fireplaces and stairs, the Metal 3 in 1 Superyard is up to the task. This play yard's sturdy structure allows you to rely on it as a safe space for both infants and small pets, so you can multitask or relax while they play.
For added security, the play yard's one swinging walk-thru panel is built with a child-proof double-locking system. This proprietary safety feature allows you to easily enter and exit the play yard while keeping you assured that your little one can't escape without your assistance.
Flexible Design Enables Multiple Uses
Unique for its sheer versatility, this play yard includes six metal panels that can be set up in a wide variety of configurations. Weighing 43 pounds, the structure is solid enough that it won't tip or lean and lightweight enough to be moved from room to room. Set it on carpet, tile, or even a hardwood floor -- it includes rubber pads to prevent scratching.
Capable as an enclosed gate or a barricade, its 30-inch high panels can be connected to create an ample 10 square feet of space, or they can be put together as a barrier using the included mounting hardware to extend the width up to 144 inches.
If you'd like to extend the gate's overall diameter, consider purchasing a two-panel extension kit (sold separately), which increases the play space to 19 square feet.
Easy to Assemble and Adjust
Setting up the Metal 3 in 1 Superyard is hassle free. The six interlocking panels are pre-connected--simply pull the panels out of box, unfold and connect them together, and the Superyard is ready for use. To put away, simply disconnect one panel, fold together, and store. The Superyard is so easy you can set it up and take it down in under a minute. The hassle-free panels also give you quick and convenient access to your child or pet.
For example, if you want to reconfigure the panels to block off different areas at the same time, you can easily do so. Thanks to the flexibility of the Superyard's design, you can use a few panels to create an enclosure around the stove while dinner's cooking, then use another panel and the included wall-mounting hardware to create a small-scale barrier around a staircase.
To ensure 100% satisfaction with your purchase, all North States products come with a one year warranty against manufacturer's defect.

Not Cheap But worth every penny - Garrett Heathcote -
I am the type that enjoys research so I will keep this short and not go into too many details. Our little girl just reached 10 months and enjoys standing and holding herself up. She is also in the 98% percentile for weight and height. So we needed something sturdy. We actually bought two of these gates to make for a wider area and they fit together very easily. It will take you a few minutes to get used to how the sections connect, but after the first few it is easy. The instructions could definitely be more helpful.
PRO:
-This gate is very very sturdy and looks to me to be nearly indestructible as it is all metal except for the plastic connectors.
-Very easy to configure how you want it
Cons:
-The gate opening is a little narrow and for a larger person could be annoying.
-Heavy and probably not easily transferred
-You have to use an even amount of sections at one time unless you are connecting it to a wall which could pose a problem. (not a huge deal for us)
-Inside area small for more than just a baby or two. (Don't plan on joining your child if you only order one!)
-Price is a little high but worth the quality
I have not tried to connect to a wall but I can see like the other reviews mentioned it may take a little extra work. Even with all the cons I listed which to me are minor annoyances I gave this product a 5/5 as it perfect for what I needed, a safe, sturdy, long lasting baby gate and possible future dog gate.
Could not hold our puppy - M. Brown - NJ
Our bouncy 1 foot tall 10 pound Coton puppy could not be held by this well-made product. We had to return it. It was much better than the plastic version we tried which had a diamond shaped pattern that he used as a toe-hold to escape. Oh, well!
Great Product but over priced... - Barbie -
The product shipped quickly! Directions were a little confusing at first, but finally figured it out. The product is great. I had read where some of the other play yards are so light weight that toddlers can push them around on the floor/carpet. That is why I decided to go with the metal. This unit is very sturdy, and I have to exert a bit of force to move it myself when I need to. It is tall enough so that toddlers cannot climb over, and the metal bars are also vertical to deter climbing. I only wish that for the price, it was a little bigger. I think 0 plus bucks is a little steep, and then having to purchase another section for plus bucks is a bit much for a play area. I really think that North States could offer this product at a more reasonable price. It is a great product, but way over priced. If you don't mind spending almost 0 for a play area, I would highly recommend this product. Bottom line, great product/overpriced!
