Skip Hop Expandable Baby Gate, Playview Enclosure, Silver Lining Cloud

Love it ! Super easy to set up, and is very strong. Super high quality

We've been looking for decent baby enclosure for months, and finally this product showed up. It's absolutely great: roomy, see through, very sturdy metal frame, easy to put together and very aesthetically pleasing.

Very durable. 6yo climbs over it and I've stumbled into it a few times and it doesn't break. We actually have 2: a 6yo hand-me-down from my friend and a new one because we needed more room. Other than some slight discoloration in the older one, they are still perfect after 6 and 2 years despite heavy use. We had another metal bar fence that completely broke! I removed one star because my one year old (albeit very smart) can open the gate latch herself. We had to remove the door panel and just use the regular fence. We mostly step over, but still open and close the gate a few times a day depending on if we are using it as a pen or a room divider. Open and closing the panels is easy for adult, just takes like 30sec longer than the gate did, which could be a mild annoyance whilst racing a fast toddler! 😉

Super lightweight and Good for the baby stage but not sturdy if you have 2 active toddler boys too 🤣

After using a few months, these are practically useless. Trying to figure out which pieces can connect to the others is frustrating and doesn’t allow ease of use. They are stiff in the corners also not at a 90 degree angle do you can’t put them in corners or along furniture…we tried using the attachments to keep the sides sturdy by drilling into the wall…..did not work, they pop out of the plastic. Overall these were very expensive to be completely useless.

great!

As a mom of 3 I’ve had a lot of different gates. This is so easy to put together and take apart if needed and very stable. I highly recommend!

This playpen is awesome except for the fact that it slides across the floor when pushed/doesn’t snap at 180 degrees. Pros - has a door - relatively attractive for a playpen - easy to see through mesh - mesh prevents baby from reaching through - tall and sturdy - snaps together easily and locks in place - collapsible to store - expandable (can buy two to make it even bigger) Cons - panels don’t sit at 180 degrees to one another so it can’t be a perfect rectangle - this also means it’s easy to slide/push for baby I am returning because the sliding isn’t safe with a crawler. I wish it worked because there’s so many other great things about this playpen.

Smaller than expected but I like the quality. I like it has 0 loose parts so I get the peace of mind knowing baby can't accidentally swallow anything. It is worth noting this doesn't secure to the floor, so it will move if you push it, but a baby isn't strong enough, maybe when they get older and become a toddler. Pros - good quality, does not feel cheap and is study Cons - kind of small once a baby start to crawl. My baby is rolling and army crawling right now and this is sufficient for the time being. Unsure if it will be okay once he crawls everywhere. Cons- doesn't secure to the floor so take that as how you will. For the price I wish I can get longer term use out of, but I have a feeling the baby may out grow it once he starts crawling.

One set makes quite a very small enclosure; so we got two sets to connect so that the space can be made bigger. They connect no problem. So far the quality is good. I like how they are stiff at the joins to hold your desired arrangement (except where door joins). They are also quite sturdy and feel good quality. We have not yet tried attaching to a wall.

It's really helpful in a lot of ways. We kept it and are getting good use out of it. But the locking mechanisms don't always work. Some panels stay firmly in place when locked, others move. These aren't complicated mechanisms so I am confident we are using them correctly. You can't do every configuration which we knew was going to be the case before we got it but at the price point I think it should be completely customizable in terms of shape. This product is a bit expensive for how basic and cheap it looks and feels. I don't know if I would buy it again, I would maybe look into another product.

I love this gate! It is pricey but looks so nice in my living room. I actually used it to create a play area in my living room corner so my baby can’t get out and my dogs can’t get in to steal her toys.

Just as the title reads; if you are planning to use this as an enclosure without mounting it, a baby who is standing and cruising will simply push the entire unit. Not to mention the “locks” which secure each piece together are either faulty or cheap and easily come undone, leading to “locked” sections losing shape and moving the when baby presses on them. Big regret purchasing, and needless to say I will be returning it.
