Highland 20045 Black Universal Pet Barrier

May as well give the dog the keys to the car
Cheap, cheap, cheap.

The screws don't tighten-up enough to secure the bars from moving, so the dog can slide them up and down and from side to side. Sometime they even went from side to side when I was turning a corner. The top and bottom "feet" slide out of place no matter how much you tighten the wing nut. Twice, while driving down the road, the thing just fell on top of the dog!!!After securing all the moving parts with duct tape and gluing rubber on the feet in an attempt to keep them from moving, which they still do...( & I'm still trying to replace the seatbelt that the dog ate before I found out the bars slide,I am using it, but I wish I had bought a better brand. Don't buy this product. Spend a little more and get a better barrier.
Works fine for a small station wagon
We wanted a barrier to keep our German Shepherd from nosing our backseat passengers in our Ford Escort wagon. Petco and Petsmart had versions of this for $60-$70. I was a little hesistant to order online because there weren't any MINIMUM dimensions (lots of maximum heights for SUVs). However, this works great (it would fit even in a smaller space, if there are any smaller cars out there) and was less than half the cost of buying from a pet supply company.
Ok for the money
This is not a terribly expensive product and for the price, it works ok. It easily fit my Jeep Cherokee--no need for the extensions which was nice. However, it required modifications for it to stay in place. The screws which are supposed to hold the cross pieces in place do not tighten enough and my dog was able to push between the cross pieces and slide them apart! My husband used clamps to secure the cross pieces and they now work fine. The device could use some spring tension to tighten it between floor and ceiling as well because it can get knocked out of place (without even loosening). All that being said, if you are handy with a few tools, this barrier works well and is rather streamlined and unobtrusive.
