The cats and the human family all like it .... the dog not so much. It's a great concept with the pet door, but I don't think the solder joints are as nicely done on this Carlson gate as they are on the Regalo gates I have. Unfortunately, the latter doesn't offer the pet door option. What's more, the Carlson stays nicely anchored to the door jam without having to use the screw-in cups. It's also worth mentioning that although the description says the gate fits from 29" and up, I have installed it in a doorway that's just 28 3/4" wide, so it might help others to know that it will fit slightly under the 29". Both brands look so similar, even right down to the colors and the latch, that I think they may be manufactured by the same company but under different names.
