Baby gate recs

Now that Gwen is crawling we need a baby gate for the top of our stairs (we only have one staircase and it leads down to our front door). We have a gate but it's not wall mounted (we bought it several years ago when we first got our dog and our cat wanted to be separated). My friends' 18 month old came to visit today and she proved that it can be pulled over with just a little force! So I'm looking for recommendations. I've looked on the BRU site but was hoping for some in-life recs. Thanks!

    We have this gate at the top of both sets of stairs. I love how easy it is to use. Ikea sells one that looks identical for half the price. I also like that you can get a kit so you don't have to screw the gate into your wooden banister.

    My biggest recommendation for gates is to get ones with vertical bars only, like on a crib. We have a plastic pressure mounted gate for doorways, and DD learned how to climb so fast. She stuck her toes in the little holes and scaled it. She can't climb the vertical style gates.

    we have this gate - from Zellers for ~$60. I agree with the vertical bars for the same reason. I like the hands free aspect of this gate, and that its not permanently attached to the wall.
