Evenflo Versatile Play Space Adjustable Play Area, 8-Panel (Cool Gray)

I bought this to put around our Christmas tree in order to keep my toddler away from the tree. It was a much cheaper option than a lot of other playpens recommended for that purpose. It worked. But since Christmas we have used it as a playpen. Its only so-so as a playpen. When my toddler leans against it, as she does all the time, the whole thing tilts. Nothing bad has happened, but it probably shouldnt do that. Worked great for the Christmas tree though!

I keep my pet out of my kitcken while I am cooking or any rooms that off limits. Good for small pet, easy to lock and open.

I love how it easily seperates and folds. wonderful product.

My husband and I have a big yard outside of town and we dont have a fence so I wanted something that I could put my toddler in when Im working in the yard where he could be safe. I actually bought three of these and hooked them together to make a big outdoor play space. Its awesome and the fence has spikes that you pull out and they stick into the ground which makes it really sturdy. The price of this play space is more reasonable than others as well. Would highly recommend.

Ive gone 6 years without ever needing one of these. There are 5 years between my youngest and my oldest. With my first I honestly never needed a baby cage because she wasnt a trouble maker and was generally easy to manage while accomplishing my own tasks around the home. I literally had to baby proof nothing. But THIS baby, as we call him danger-bud is prone to danger. He is obsessed with stairs, the stove, scaling things and licking electrical outlets. Its a lot harder to keep him alive than my first. Weve had this setup in the kitchen for a few weeks along with some padded floor tiles to protect him from the concrete floor. Hes generally not too upset when I put him in his caged space. He tries to scale it and tries to shake it down but its held up to his escape tactics. This allows me up to 30 minutes of time to make dinner, clean the kitchen, and generally get stuff done. I didnt realize when I ordered it that it also has stakes at the bottom so you can secure it to an outside area. We dont have a yard but are moving soon and wouldnt mind using this outside as well. This was such a great purchase I wish I would have gotten it sooner. We wont get as much use out of it since hes my last kiddo...so maybe well just have to get a puppy to pass it on to!

Great product for babies and small toddlers. I have used this since my grandbaby has been scooting. We love how the pieces come apart so easily and we can change the shape to fit anywhere we want it to be. We use it all over our apartment in sections to keep the baby away from things we dont want him to get into. I do however have to say that he is never left alone and someone is always watching. It is not especially sturdy, so an older toddler could climb or push down, so I would not leave them alone for any extended period of time in it, but for small babies play area, or keeping areas blocked off it is perfect.

Really wish they made a door panel section even if sold separately.

UPDATED: I gave this gate a shot and besides the few issues I noticed the gate is now bowing out. I have it set as two pieces on each side and one piece on each end. Basically a rectangle. I noticed the side is bowing out which means when a child leans on it (which children lean on gates) its bowing even further and Im waiting for it to snap and the child to crack their head on the table. I rearranged my whole living room to make room for this and here I will have to go through the hassle of sending it back and finding a box big enough for it or I will have to stage my room where something is up against the side so a child can not get hurt. I get making them lightweight and easy to move but its now too light to where it cant even withstand toddlers leaning on it if they say drop a toy outside of it. With the name I thought I could trust this product but I was wrong and cant risk someones child being hurt because they can push this all around, lift it up, and now the plastic is warping at the hinges from them standing and leaning on it. Would recommend looking for a sturdier gate. I had a gate similar but thought I was done watching littles so I sold it. This gate compared to my other is much lighter. Now that would normally be a plus, however, its too light and therefore the one little girl I watch whose 2 can lift it up and slide her legs out, she pushes it across the floor to get to where she wants and shes a little thing. So imagine a bigger child doing it. I bought this to replace the pack and play being she was climbing out of that. The first day she stuck her foot in the open spaces and now I have to worry she doesnt fall doing that and break a leg or hip because it gets stuck as she falls. Putting this together was simple, breaking it down is simple, but I would watch the child and age you need it for. If it is for a little one whose not into climbing and lifting and under around a year and a half this would pry work great. An active toddler who is getting into things will probably not be restrained in this because they will lift it up or just drag it to where they want to go. I do have to worry she doesnt try and crawl under it when she lifts it up and gets stuck with it on her if I say run to the bathroom. So Definitely regretting this purchase, because I thought it would be heavier than it actually is.

Unless you have a small space purchase the “Versatile Play Space” which includes the additional 2 panels...or buy 2 full play spaces seeing as though the 2 panels are $30 alone. The 6 panel gate is a decent size for a new crawler, but once they start moving it doesn’t offer a lot of room. I have a relatively small home and even I’m waiting on my delivery of the additional 2 panels because this doesn’t even cover the size of my play mat. PROS: • contains busy body babies • decent size • no construction • easy to fold • slim for storage • light enough to carry • sturdy when positioned appropriately (follow directions - hexagon, octagon, decagon - don’t go by pictures of other users!) CONS: • The “smooth” side is on the outside which makes no logical sense • The design on the panels makes it easier for a child to grab or step onto vs vertical bars which would be preferable • “C” is not actually marked like “A” and “B” are...C is the grey circular button on each of the panels

Bought this for my granddaughter. We use it religiously! Indoors or out. It is lightweight and easy to use. It keeps her safe in a designated play area and she can’t break out. Also use it as fencing on the porch.
