will it stand on its own or does it have to be mounted?

I've had 3 of these unmounted on my kitchen counter for years. They are at the back of the counter and therefore lean against the wall for support. Can the shelves be jostled with the potential for spices to fall off? Yes. Actually I've found I prefer the option to move them to occasionally clean crumbs out from under them. There is no shelf on the back to hold the spices in, so when I move the racks I am careful to tip them slightly forward. This holds the spices in place quite nicely.

it can stand on its own but it doesn't have anything in the back, most likely things will fall. if you put it against a wall and make sure it doesn't move around then yes you can keep it standing. Otherwise I suggest you secure it to the wall with the screws provided.

Yes it can stand alone but if lightly knocked against it will wobble over. Left alone it is quite stable.

You will need to find a way of holding it. It is not free standing, it is designed to be mounted in an opening.

It stand alone if the TV mounted on it weighs within the specified limit, else it will kiss the ground ;)

I would think it needs to be mounted. It is top heavy and would fall over. I mounted it to the end of a cabinet.

you can use the legs for it to stand on its own. or you can lean it against something. we have done both.

It will stand up on its own, but the whole light is very lightweight and it would not take much to knock it over.

If you arrange it with a couple of angles it should stand on its own just fine.

No stand and no easy way to have it stand up. You can however mount it to a wall with screws if you want.

Yes, it will stand up on it's own. No stakes needed. It lays flat for storage but pops open and up when you start to open it. It could be used on any surface.

Yes, it stands on it's own on any flat surface. The clip is no hindrance to it standing.

Yes, but don't know if it would stand up without leaning against something.

Not on its own. You need to prop it up with blocks or something on one end.

Not in its regular configuration. As you can see it has footing pads to stand on. You would have to build your own mounting device.

No, it stands on it's own!! It's quite heavy so we have it on a planter caddy, so we can move it. Had it a long time and only blown over once in a heavy storm! Love it, hope you do too!!

It will stand up by itself, but the unit is very small. I suppose using it for long gun would be better. But for pistol it's too low.

It will stand on it's own, but only if you expand it to fit between two vertical surfaces. You adjust it to the width you want. Then push the plastic lever (in the middle of the gate) down and lock it. Pushing the lever down expands the gate a bit more so that it's wedged between your vertical surfaces. That holds it upright.
