Expandable from 38 to 60 inches to fit even large openings. View larger. | Quick and Easy Installation
The Soft and Wide Gate installs quickly and easily with no tools. Clear markings on the knobs ("ADJUST," "IN," "OUT") indicate how to contract the tubes. And the pressure mounting means zero to minimal alteration or damage to doorways. Once installed, the gate also smoothly uninstalls, an option that's great once baby has gone to bed for the night, or when you're traveling, either to play dates or on vacation. Excellent for Light Traffic Areas and Irregular Doorways
The Soft and Wide Gate is an ideal choice for those homes with wide entries in light traffic areas, but it's flexible enough to accommodate a wide variety of spaces. Because entryways vary in width from house to house, this gate features pressure-mounted rubber bumpers that adjust individually. Additionally, with just a few twists of the rail, you can custom fit the Soft and Wide to match any opening. It also includes a padded top rail that provides a soft place for toddlers to pull themselves to a standing position. And parents are sure to appreciate the extra padding when they're climbing over the gate throughout the day. It can be cleaned with a damp sponge, or even machine-washed if necessary (cold water, gentle cycle). For added peace of mind, the Soft and Wide Gate comes with a 90 day limited warranty.

Amazon.com Hands-On Review
If all houses had the same width entryways, everyone could use the same child safety gate and never give it a second thought. The reality, of course, is that, like babies, every house and every doorway is different. But baby still wants to explore, and some areas of the house are just not an option. The Evenflo Soft and Wide Gate is an excellent choice for light traffic areas with wide entries. Expanding from 38 inches to 60 inches, this nylon mesh gate feels soft but provides solid protection. The pressure-mounted rubber bumpers adjust individually, so it's possible to, say, have the lower tension bars attached to trim while the upper part is mounted to the wall. Many older houses have uneven settlement, creating varying doorway widths--not a problem for this gate. With a few twists of the rail, the gate can be custom-fit to any opening. No Hardware, Easy to Adjust and Install
…and uninstall! This means that you can take the gate down quickly and easily when baby's gone to bed. Clear markings on the knobs ("ADJUST," "IN," "OUT") indicate how to expand or contract the tubes. The pressure mounting means that there will be minimal (if any) damage to doorways. The metal frame and nylon meshing are sturdy yet lightweight, making it a natural for travel purposes, as well as storage. Step Right Over
Note that there is no door in this gate, but most adults will be able to step over the 27-inch-tall gate with relative ease. The gate is designed for light-use areas, and definitely not for tops of stairs. Even Baby Likes This Gate!
Baby can see through the mesh material, but won't be able to find a hand- (or toe-) hold to climb over. The padded top rail provides extra softness for tots who insist on pulling themselves to a standing position—as well as for moms and dads who will be climbing over the gate themselves throughout the day…no barked shins! Care and Feeding
Remember to wipe down the rubber bumpers with rubbing alcohol before each use. Make sure all four end caps fit securely against wall or doorway opening. One weak link may be all an intrepid toddler needs to break on through to the other side! Excessive pressure can dislodge the gate. Use only for children ages 6 months through 24 months. Not for pets! The nylon mesh can be cleaned with a damp sponge, or even machine-washed if necessary (cold water, gentle cycle). --Emilie Coulter

 Great gate for the money October 1, 2008
We now have two of these gates and they're great. My son pushes and practially hangs on them and we have yet to even see one budge. They are wonderful for wide doorways where you don't want to have to install something permanent. We put them up/take them down at least a couple of times a day, and it only takes a matter of seconds. The width is also easy to adjust if you need to move them to a different space. I would highly recommend this gate to anyone.
baby gate September 29, 2008
Purchased as a pet gate for a new puppy. Works great. Keeps the puppy in the kitchen on the tile floor while we are housebreaking her. No messes in the "hard to clean" areas of the house.
 Nice Gate ! September 25, 2008
We bought the Evenflo Soft And Wide Gate so we can bring it with us when we go out. It's a flexible, lightweight gate that snaps into place across a wide range of places we want to keep the kids out of. Worth the purchase for sure.
Easy to install September 21, 2008
While this gate was too wide to use where I had originally intended, it is now working out wonderfully in it's new location. It is so easy to install and withstands a lot of force (and it's so cute to see our daughter smoosh her face against the mesh). I like the fact that you can install it in an uneven doorway because the top and bottom are adjusted independently of each other. I would recommend this gate to anyone who doesn't want to install any kind of hardware and needs versatility.
Great for large entryways and kitchens! September 13, 2008
I purchased 2 of these to block off my kitchen area. One side of my kitchen has a small recessed area under my cabinets so traditional wooden baby gates wouldn't work. When the 2 knobs at the top where locked in place, the bottom half of the gate would still swing back and forth because they had nothing to grip to. With this one, I can adjust the top and bottom to different widths.
Also, with other baby gates, my kids could scale them by sticking their toes in the holes on the plastic mesh. With these, they are a tightly knit mesh so there are no holes to stick their toes in! The mesh is also easy to remove for washing.
Another plus is that with the wooden gates, you may not be able to put the little indicator bar in the correct spot to adjust your pressue. This would sometimes cause it to be too tight and cracked one of my door frames. To me, the wooden gates had too many sharp and hard areas to be truly "safe."
I can't say enough good things about these gates! They have been a lifesaver (and sanity saver!) for us! I have 3 kids, ages 2-7 and have spent a LOT of money on baby gates. This is the only one that holds up to them and is well worth what I paid.
