Thi is a solution looking for a problem. Sure, brackets can't be a bad
idea. But I have a GE stove much like any other and it not only does not
weigh enough to crush anyone it can't be so easily tipped over, either. The
leverage on the door is just not there and it is quite bottom heavy - the CG
is just above the floor. The door is only 9 inches above the floor and if I
applied weight to the very end of the open door, I'll just tip the stove a
little. And securing the stove isn't going to keep toddlers from reach up
and pulling pots off the stove. That happens way too often.

Nothing will fix this "problem" except being careful.

Trust me, I know accidents can happen. I damn near died of shock when I had
just loaded up the dishwasher and was about to start it when I couldn't hold
the urge to pee any longer and when I returned to the kitchen I heard my
kitten mewing from inside the washer. I damn near turned the thing on
without knowing she had crawled inside while I was loading it.

You just can't always now what can happen and so you get used to doing
things like turning the pot handles to the side and looking inside the
dishwasher before closing the door.
