Good idea, but $10 for 2? I have a better idea!
We recently moved to a new home and after several of my walls were ruined by our pressure baby gates in the previous house, I really didn't want to do the same thing to the new house. I Googled "baby gate wall saver" and came across the Pressure Gate Wall Saver - Two Pack. I was really surprised how expensive 2 little pieces of rubber were! With 3 toddlers I would need to spend $160 just to cover my 8 necessary pressure gates. My next thought was, "If this is a universal problem with pressure baby gates that requires this new product for the adjustable pressure pad, why don't the gate companies make them that way in the first place?" (I guess that's just me.) Once I got over the initial sticker shock, I realized these reminded me of another product that might just work for this exact purpose. Sure enough; I went to my local Wal-Mart and picked up a 4 pack of rubber furniture caster cups for less than $2. I used them for my gates, just as the above product was designed, and they are perfect! My walls are saved!!! So..... From one parent to another, don't waste your money on this product! I'm sure this item works great, but the price is ridiculous. Here is an Amazon link to the type of casters that work just as well:

I hope this helps!
