This gate is sturdy and versatile.  I can use it in several rooms, especially the living room which has a wide door opening and no door.  I have two big dogs and they have never knocked it over or moved it when I have used it to corral them.  It's also great for blocking the stair case from little ones for safety.  It folds up nicely and is compact so its easy to store when not in use.  It is a nice quality too so it looks nice when in use.
