Step2 KidAlert Outdoor Boundary Net, Green

Great purchase! We have 4 kids under the age of 4 and our driveway is on a slight incline. It doesn’t take much for a ball or any toy with wheels to go rolling down the driveway. Every time a ball hits the net and doesn’t go into the road I turn to my wife and say “best purchase ever”!!! We have a 3 car garage so one net didn’t cover the entire bottom of the driveway...so I simply bought two! We only use 3 of the fluorescent plastic boys with both nets connected to the boy in the middle, and then one boy on each side of the driveway. I actually put the 4th plastic boy a foot or two into the street. I’ve noticed our neighbors have definitely slowed down driving past our home. You’ll definitely need to fill the base with sand ($7 Menards) because the wind will blow them over. It’s a great boundary and none of our kids have tried to cross it this far. Highly recommended!

Follow the instructions and actually fill it with SAND. I read the reviews from folks who say that they fall over; they don't if you really put it together as instructed. We've had it for a month or so, and it is exactly what we needed.

Nice nets. The plastic kids were easy to fill up with sand and they stay up pretty good. The net does a good job of preventing toys and balls from going in the street, which was our intended purpose. They are a little smaller than I expected them to be. They fit over our one-car garage door opening but didn't cover our two-car garage door opening.I'd recommend for one-care garage use but if you have a larger space than that, you may want to find a different option.

We have a two car garage and a normal width driveway for around this area. The net is not wide enough to cover the drive way. My work around is to put the turtles in the middle of the the foot of the driveway and try to stake it through in a gap in the concrete, but it's not perfect and it leaves a huge gap where kids can fit through. It's also kind of a pain to fit the sand caps on the bases and it took 2 adults about 20 min to fit the bases on the turtles so it's not the easiest set up.

Fits perfectly across the driveway to give my toddler a safe place to play. No one can pull in around it and she knows not to go past it.

So disappointed I spent that much money for a piece of junk. Even when filled with sand, it’s not very stable, the net is super saggy and my two year old literally steps right over it to go into the street. It’s also not that long to fully cover a wide driveway. Unfortunately, the product is now “used” so I can’t return it.

This net is much shorter than what is needed to cover the driveway apron...so I basically have to hope my toddler doesn't kick the ball in the 1 1/2 feet on each side that isn't covered. Also, you need to add something to weigh the yellow people down or else the net won't stay taut...meaning that I also have to hope the ball doesn't roll too high. Quite a disappointment - especially from the Step2 brand.

We filled the bases with water because we didn’t have sand so if it’s really windy they tip over, but I assume they wouldn’t if we had actually used sand. But regardless they’re perfect for what we need
