I think one thing to remember with toddler safety is that they are super tough. I understand the electrical outlets, cleaners, houseplants, knives ect.... But I think the bumpers on tables and stuff like that are silly. Small tumbles and boo boos are the way children learn. My little one is 15 months and today she tumbled getting off the couch. After the water works were over she looked at me and said "Careful" Next time she got on the couch she paid attention and took her time.
I believe the number one important safety devices for toddlers are parents. Teaching them good lessons will help them more then all the knob covers, and cabinet locks in the world.
Don't get me wrong though I believe my baby gates are a Godsend.

Hope ya'll like my tough baby photo. This one always makes me laugh!;-)

Not acceptable?
