Can I use this at the top or bottom of the stairs for kids?

I use mine at the top of the stairs. I also keep a close eye on her when she is close to the gate. I don't let her climb on it. It is not recommended for the top of stairs. Just teach your child it is not okay to touch the gates.

Absolutely Not!!!!! Please dont! your child will fly down the stairs because this thing doesn't attach to the wall

We currently have one and are ordering 2 more. I use it at the bottom of the stairs and at a room door at the top when I'm upstairs. We lock the bar pretty tightly and have had no problems so far. Our little one is 11 months old and into everything, constantly pulling herself up and standing against the gate. I wouldn't necessarily let her play with it at the top of the stairs, just because I'd have nightmares about her falling through it or over it as she gets taller. However, it's kept her from climbing the stairs at the bottom, which it where we place our current one every evening when we're downstairs. Again though, she's small, almost 1 years old, and we keep it as tight was we can make it. Consider how much pressure your little one would put on it before you use it at the top, but not a good idea unless you're there with them. One thing to consider, I've tripped over it, and so has my husband, when not paying attention, and it didn't fall down, we did so for all the other areas, it's a pretty good bet.

Absolutely Not! Pressure gates are not for the top of stairs. While some reviewers may be using it at the top of the stairs, it's not safe and it's an accident waiting to happen.

Yes this is perfect for stairs and should be used only for them! As i forwarned about the product itself it breaks down essily after excessive use.

This is a wall mount gate, so it is possible to use it at the top or bottom of stairs, provided you have a wall and/or sturdy post to mount it to. I would not recommend trying to attach it to a carved or decorative bannister post, however.

I've never used it to down stairs but I would imagine if would work just as well as going upstairs.

I'm pretty sure there are stairs. The kids love this, it's just the right size

No. The seat must stay attached for functionality. It would not be safe to use the ladder alone. They have little 2 step stools for potty training out there.

That's where we use it, and as it has a threshold, it's a bit difficult to step through and balance. My son in law bought hardware which attaches to the bannister, and added a wooden support to the bottom of the gate. Sorry, not sure where he got the pieces that straddle the bannister and close with Velcro. We only use it when they visit, at their house they use a gate that is meant for the top of the stairs and has no bottom pice to walk over, much safer.

No I would definitely NOT let your kids step on the gate. If it's only anchored into drywall, it will most likely pull out of the wall. Also, even though the gate is metal, the brackets are plastic. It's a tough gate but I wouldn't want my kid stepping or hanging on any gate, especially if it's at the top of the stairs. There isn't any gate I would recommend for that.

Umm I haven't used it without the stairs but it should be fine for dogs. If not they are pretty steep and shouldn't be in the way.

I would say no to a high chair, also it is very unstable when using the steps. The chair alone seems stable enough, so I say it depends on the age and how active the child is. Personally I would not recommend it.

Specs say 3-6, but both of my kids were younger when they started (Our daughter has been using it since She was about 15 months but couldn't climb in until more like 18 months, our son was 2 1/2). You need to judge how tippy they are, as it is possible to fall out (both of my kids have done that as well when messing around). If your kid can safely navigate stairs, this ought to work for them

The little feet for the stairs has 2 different heights. You could have the front flipped to the bigger height

The bottom is firm enough but the issue is the mesh sides that hold it up. If your baby is small enough maybe 12 lbs or less, as long as you have them in there so they can't roll around it may be OK to move them short distances, but nothing like up and down stairs. The movement will not be smooth since it will be bouncing off of yourself while carrying it. Maybe 2 people moving it will be smoother.

Not at all! In everything, we've got to supervise our kids, but this Bumbo Step Stool is perfect for little ones needing to reach heights in certain areas of the house, but more when potty training, and to reach the face basin for washing of hands, which is why I bought it! My little grandson just love it. Moreso, that's exactly what is used at his school, so having it home, makes it even more comfy for him! Buy yours today, your little one will love it!

You can use the trundle at the lowest level. Once you raise it, it goes all the way up. I leave it down when my granddaughter spends the night. She is 3. She likes it closer to the ground! I raised the top mattress as high as it would go so I could use an 8" mattress on the trundle as well as the daybed.
