Pressure fitting or screw in? What do you think?

Screw in IMO. Pressure fitting usually means you actually have to screw in the cups anyway - it's a fib. True pressure fitting means the damn thing doesn't open and you have to hop over, a la travel gates. Bloody things. But important - falls down stairs one of the biggest causes of serious injury to small children.

screw in everytime. Used to have a pressure fitting one in entrance to kitchen. Along came ds one day aged 11 months and pulled that much, it came off and he landed on his back with gate on top of him. Never again - got screw ones for dd this time around.
