This baby fence is amazing! We’ve tried other options for creating safe play areas for our 1-year-old and this one has been the most versatile to fit our needs. We actually ordered two of the large sets and have them in three different rooms of our home.The panels are very cute. They have neutral colors and fun designs. I’ve gotten compliments on them! They even have a fun play panel included with each set! I like to attach play rings and toys with hooks to the walls for additional play value.The panels can be positioned at various angles to create the shapes you desire. Each connector is removal and can swivel or lock as desired. It is modular, so you can keep adding or exchanging pieces between sets, if you buy more than one. I don’t regret buying two large sets! I use my fence on carpeted areas, but there are suction cups on the bottom panel connectors to help keep it from moving on hard surfaces. The gates (one is included in each set), have cute designs and a simple latch that my baby can’t operate … yet. You can position the gates to in-swing or out swing in any place along the fence, so once she figures it out, I’ll just put the latch on the outside. The panel height is just right — baby can’t get out, but adults can step in with relative ease if they don’t wish to use the door.One of my panels had a defect and the company had excellent customer service. They more than made it right. They also send spare connector parts in case any break.If you are looking for a baby fence or playpen, I highly recommend you give this one a try. It is on the more expensive side, but you get what you pay for and will be able to use this in so many ways in your home.Ordered while quarantined at home with my 11-month-old daughter for a week while out from daycare due to COVID exposure. She had learned to crawl the month before so trying to get anything done and keep an eye on her as she motored around our open-concept main level was nearly impossible.I did lots of research comparing play pens and made my decision mainly based on safety, durability, dimensions (for large play area and to fit our living room) and price.This has been worth every penny so far! Not only was it relatively easy for me to set up on my own in about 45 minutes (spaced around putting baby down for nap), I didn't need any tools and instructions were simple and easy to follow.I appreciate that it has the ability to be configured around odd corners and is locked into place with the gray connectors between panels, as well as suction cups on the bottom which keep it in place on solid, hard floors (more difficult here as ours is half on carpet, half wood, but still stays sturdy where it suctions to the wood).The door makes it easy for grandparents to come in without stepping over top, but I'm only 5'4 and have no problem coming over the side to save time.Extended family have also commented on what a smart, sturdy and wonderful choice this play pen was! two adults and the baby fit comfortably in here, even lying down, for play (my husband is 6' and also says he doesn't feel cramped when in there).Our daughter now tries to pull herself to standing by holding onto the small circles on the panels but doesn't get hands stuck, plus the gate supports her weight as she holds on.This may be slightly pricier than some other options out there but considering the durability, ease of construction and safety, as well as portability option, I recommend it hands-down! Total life-saver with a mobile little one!Sturdy, great value, love the ability to add or subract panels!This is a great buy. I did much research before selecting this model of play pen. I was concerned about some of the negative reviews regarding sturdiness and loose nails. I found a YouTube video that had a tutorial on construction. It was simple to put together and did not take a long time to assemble. 1) I recommend taking all the items to the place you plan to construct and leave the play yard2) I looked for nails in the play pen. A first it did not seem visible nails, however, the top connectors have nail on the underside. I took a small screw driver and tighten each connector screw. I DID find at least 5 of the 18 connectors had loose nails. This would have been a safety hazard if I had not noticed. Please take a brief moment to tighten all 14, 18, or 22 top connectors screws. It is worth the peace of mind and safety of your baby.3. I did NOT place the straight bottom connectors on. I found just using the suction cup bottom connector was sturdy and easier to move. If you are going to keep your play yard in one place then ADD the "straight bottom connector" over the suction bottoms.This will all make sense if you move forward with purchasing this play yard and have to assemble.My 10 month old hated the pack and play. I guess, if felt to enclosed. However, she played in the play yard and did not seem to mind. It had plenty of space. I used the circle formation to give her more freedom in all directions.Overall, great buy. I do think the price point was a bit higher than necessary for this item. So other brands are cheaper with more panels included. I can't speak to the quality of other brands, but overall I am happy with my purchase so far.Update: After one week of usage, I was sitting in the play yard with my daughter. I noticed a loose screw on the floor and a circle piece of plastic. Beware the door know has a screw that can come loose. The door knob is still off because it will not stay attached with the screw. I just starting using the door before this happened. Initially my husband and I would step over the side walls to get in and out. I hoping I am able to get a replacement door panel. This was a very expensive gate to NOT be able to keep my daughter in after one week of usage.Update: I contacted the seller and a new gate was sent to me. I am happy the seller was willing to make things right. Like I stated in my original review this gate is a good buy.Item is relatively easy to assemble. Perfect for babies who are crawling and beginning toytLlegó dos dias después de lo estimado, pero estoy satisfecha con el producto, es tal cual en las imágenes de descripción!Está muy bonito, de buena calidad!
