This gate is awesome... we have a 75 lb golden retriever and a 37 lb standard poodle. They both like to rush to the door when someone knocks or rings the bell.  Neither of them will touch this gate... they will rush up to it, but they will not run into it.  I did purchase the "feet" for it but I don't think that was really necessary.  It is sturdy and will not tip over easily if set up properly leaving a few minor "bends" in the hinged areas. We love it!
