North States Superyard XT Gate Play Yard

The Superyard XT is just what we needed. We already had gates on the stairs but our little one who recently found his new freedom that crawling allowed didn't want to stay in the living room and play with his toys any longer. All he wanted to do is explore. We actually have the Superyard stretched out and runs from the fireplace across the hallway to the stairs blocking off his access to a bathroom and kitchen. It stays stable with some small kinks at the joints so it's not in a straight line that he can't knock it down. It's high enough that he can't get over but low enough for a teenager and above to step over.

This item would work well if your child is in the crawling stage. However, if your child is walking then this is not for them. My son is able to push the gate where he wants it. And because it is so light he is also able to pick it up and escape.

We have two 4 month old puppies, and this has been a great time saver.
It is big enough for them to play in, and keeps them out of the things they haven't learned not to bother yet. We take it when we go traveling, as it sets up quickly, with no tools. For puppies, and two-legged children, I would recommend the Superyard XT to everyone.

I ordered this product for my 4-month-old cockapoo puppy. I have an open floor plan and I use it as a fence to keep the puppy in my family room. The SuperYard extends over a 12 foot opening and it works great. Other similar products on Amazon were either too short or too expensive. I did NOT have to anchor the SuperYard to the walls as some others have had to do (I have it on carpet, hard floors would be more problematic). If you set it up in a zigzag fashion (see the product photos) and brace the ends against your door frames, the puppy can't easily push it over. I gave the SuperYard 4 instead of 5 stars only because it is not easy for people to get through the fence. The joints between sections are stiff (to improve the strength of the barrier), but this means that you can't swing a section open like a gate. What we do is to pull the end of the fence away from the door frame enough to slip by. This trade-off is worth it to me since my puppy now doesn't have the run of the house. I think the SuperYard would also work well as a fence or barrier for toddlers and crawlers.

Th North States Superyard XT Gate Play Yard arrived in perfect condition and was easy to assemble. It is used primarily as a play yard for our nine month old grandson. It is very easy to move from one area to another. I highly recommend this product.
