Aesthetically pleasing and practical
"As a member of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, we were so excited to receive the Evenflo Easy Walk-Thru clear gate. The design of the clear gate was aesthetically pleasing, it looked great in the location we used it in and would look great anywhere you place it. The gate was easy to operate once installed and we loved that the gate opened in either direction, this made it easier to keep our little one or our animals where we wanted them. While we didn't need to use the extention that was included, it is definitely a nice addition to have incase we ever need it for a wider opening. Our favorite thing about this gate is the clear panel. The downfall of the clean panel is the little one we are currently fostering is able to climb up the solid piece. But she is a daredevil and loves climbing on everything!"

Baby gate
"Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this baby/pet gate. It was perfect for our townhome as we have multiple levels and our 18 month old loves exploring! It was very simple to set up with tension, but the option to screw it into place was also available (I’m just not handy!) I set it up within 20 minutes pretty easily while my little one was with me! The clear portion makes it aesthetically look great since our space is so small. The latch system is something I don’t think my little one will ever figure out (it requires you to lift the entire door gate to unlatch). It is durable, makes safety a priority, and does it’s job by keeping my little one from going upstairs!"

Aesthetic and useful baby gate!
"I absolutely love the Easy Walk-Thru Clear Gate! I got this gate in exchange for an honest review from the Stellar Product testing panel and I’m so thrilled with it. This gate is quite pretty compared to other gates I’ve had in the past and it’s incredibly easy to use. I use this to keep my kids out of my in home photography studio and it works beautifully. The clear panel is so nice because not only does it look nicer than a traditional gate, but I love being able to see my kids and they love being able to see me while I work. It is super convenient that the gate swings both ways for ease of use on my way in and out. I didn’t need the extension piece in the current location, but I’m glad to have it just in case I need to move it in the future. All in all, this is a great product and I want to go back and buy 3 more!"

Very practical and easy to use, but will get filthy!
"Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing us with this baby/pet gate! We were in the market for another baby/pet gate since we have a VERY curious 18-month-old, a puppy, and a grumpy older dog so this came at exactly the right time! There are so many features to this gate that I love but some of those same features have downsides as well. -It’s super easy to install, I didn’t need any extra tools or parts that weren’t included. (Make sure to read the instructions first though, there is one zip tie that you shouldn’t cut until the end because it holds the door closed for you while installing!) -It includes an (optional) extension piece for larger hallways/doors, which I needed for my installation! -The build quality is very solid, once installed I wasn’t worried at all about the tension rods moving or the gate being knocked over by my toddler or dogs. Though, there is a bar on the bottom that’s pretty thick, my toddler has a hard time getting over it gracefully, but I realize the gate wouldn’t be possible without it so we will have to be careful with it to make sure no one trips over it. -The gate door opens in both directions!! THIS IS A HUGE PLUS!! We have a similar gate that is the same-ish design but has bars in the middle instead of the clear panel, but that gate only swings in one direction...which is quite annoying. -It’s self-closing!! It swings and latches closed behind you, no matter which direction it swings from. Other gates we have require us to close/latch them ourselves and they stay open if we forget. -The clear panel gives the room a more open feel, doesn’t make my kid/dogs look like they’re in a cage/jail cell, and they can still see me when I’m on the other side of the gate. The downside to that is A LOT of cleaning though. Between the kid and the dogs, it doesn't take long to look pretty filthy. Overall, this gate is very practical and more appealing to the eye than other gates! I would recommend it to anyone with little ones or pets that need to be contained!"

Modern gate that puts safety first.
"Thanks to Stellar Product Testing Panel, I got a chance to test out the Easy Walk-Thru Clear Gate. We were actually in need of another gate because of my very curious 11-month-old. This is our first walk-thru gate and I now want to replace all my other gates. I've always been hesitant to buy the walk-thru kind because I'm not very handy. It was very easy to install with the instructions that were given. If I can do it, anybody can. I love the ease of just opening and walking through versus jumping over the gate. My little one loves getting into my 5-year-old toys and it's not always safe with tiny little pieces everywhere. The gate keeps my son away from the choking hazard while still feeling included with the clear panel. I will say, I have had to use lots of Windex because of my dog's wet nose and my 11 month old putting his face and fingers on it can create a lot of smudges. That said, it's a chic, secure, easy-to-install gate that gets my 100% approval."

Great Gate!
"I received this gate as a part of the Stellar Review Program. We didn't really need a new baby gate, but I'm glad this one came. It's easy to set up and I completely trust that it'll keep my one year old out of our room. The lift to open feature even keeps our 3 year old out- something our other baby gates can't do. I love the clear panel in it. Our house is not "aesthetic" so that part didn't matter to me, but it was super handy to be able to throw some dry erase markers down and let my toddler go to town doodling on it while I make dinner or get her brother ready to go for the day."

Versatile babygate
"Thank you to Stellar Product Testing Panel for allowing me to review this Evenflo Easy-Walk-Thru Clear Panel Gate. First off this is very pleasing to the eye. I like the clear panel gate because its less space the kids have to toss toys through. I may have to clean it often though. I also have a pet so it may show lots of smudges. I have several small children and twins on the way so I also feel like I don't like the bar at the bottom that you have to step over, my husband already almost tripped, so I know the children have to be extra careful to step over. Over all the gate is pleasing to look at and practical, I like the clear panel, I like that the door can swing either way, I am worried about the bar at the bottom with someone tripping though."

Functional and stylish
"Love that this gate has the clear panel to make our baby corralling less jail-like. It's nice that it opens both directions and self closes unless you open it fully. The need to lift it while opening hopefully means it will be child-proof until we no longer need it. Install was easy and my door frames appreciate that it does not have to be wall mounted. Thanks to Stellar Panel Product Reviews for sharing!"

See Through Baby/Pet Gate!
"The clear panel on this baby/pet gate is amazing! It doesn’t obstruct the view into or out of the room. Set up was very easy and loved being able to swing the door both ways. The extension feature is nice to have, although I didn’t need it for my space. My absolute favorite thing that is a game changer is the clear panel on the front. My little one doesn’t feel (or look) like she’s in a cage or jail cell. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this baby/pet gate"

Nice looking gate, but has some downsides
"Big shout out thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending us the Easy Walk-Thru Clear Gate to try for free! The overall design of the gate is good. Looks like good quality. Looks modern and sturdy. I liked the clear panel, it makes it feel a little LESS like your house is gated off. Which is nice if you've had gates up in your house for many consecutive years like we have. However, as you would expect it gets super dirty. Between the kids and the dog it doesn't take long to look pretty filthy. Instalation was simple and we liked the variable option for width of different door spaces. We used it mostly in a standard bedroom door width space. The ability to open the gate in either direction is very nice. However, if the gate swings shut with a little too much force it will swing past to the other side and sit open. For that reason I didn't give it a 5 star for peace of mind. If you let it swing back shut behind you it may sound like it is latched but may be sitting open in the other direction. This gate is also basically IMPOSSIBLE to shut quietly. It always has a very audible click. Which I would not like if I had it by a baby's room and had just laid down a sleeping little one. Our favorite feature of this gate is its appearance. We really like how it makes the door look more open."
