When I purchased this cage I was looking for value and quality and thought I had chosen the appropriate one. It "fits" my dog size-wise, but it's not as sturdy as I'd like. There is no grate or flip-up guard across the front to keep the floor pan in place. I've come home day after day to find she's scooted the pan completely out of the cage leaving herself sitting on the carpet and wire floor. There are two hooks on the bottom front on the INSIDE of the cage that could be dangerous for eyes, paws. At first I thought they must be used somehow to anchor the pan, but after much looking and figuring I couldn't see how that could be done so I took them off. The bent wire clips that hold the cage together aren't very strong. My dog has been able to nearly dismantle the cage with herself inside. She can literally "pop" it apart. She just grabs the front wall in her teeth and backs up and the wall pulls inward, un-connecting itself at the clips. I've had to extensively revamp the cage by wiring corners together to make it stable. Granted, it's a "portable" cage and perhaps I should have chosen another model for a permanent one. The folding design is fine, but if you're looking for a house crate that you can set up and leave, this may not be the one. The locks are good, but the tips are not guarded in any way - just cut off metal. I probably should have chosen a more robust model. I was looking for cheap, and that's exactly what I got. It would be suitable for vacations or shows, but not as a permanent every-day crate.

This folding crate is perfect -- it is very spacious for my beagle but could hold a labrador retriever comfortably. I like that I can fold it up and store it under my bed if necessary. Also, I prefer it to a plastic crate because my dog can see outside her kennel.

This cage was easy to setup. The only a couple of gripes. First, the gauge of the wire is thin compared to other cages reviewed locally. The bottom seems to be pretty durable. The dog has gone crazy on it, digging. However the bottom sustained minimal damage. Second issue is that the latches used to hold the front of the cage do not work well. I recommend investing in tie wraps to hold the cage snaps in place where the door is (pushing on it causes the front of the cage to disconnect from the latches.)

We always crate train our dogs, this crate is sturdy enough to withstand our active puppy and her escape tactics as well as very easy to set up.

This crate has done exactly what we wanted. It has three access doors, which is very helpful. We use it for our cat, who has to be confined to a crate for several weeks after surgery. During this time we moved, and the crate was very easy to collapse and put back together in our new home. We move it (without collapsing it) every day between our bedroom and living room and it's held up great. This was a really good buy! The cat may hate it, but we love it.

When my cat broke his leg, I had to get a lg crate right away for $90+tax at a pet store. I was able to find this one in the 10-day window I had to return that one. I saved over $40 and it was the same EXACT crate, so I took this one as the return to the pet store. I always save at Amazon!

This is a good size if you'd like your medium sized dog to have a big house! I actually put the divider in the middle and cut out a hole that she'll be able to go through to go in between the "rooms". I placed her bowls on one end near the door and placed her bed on the other side. it works great and it was assembled in 3 minutes after I opened the box. It's very sturdy too, I put her vitamins and toys on top when not in use.

Best price anywhere for the product I bought (a wire kennel).
Similar prices(exact product)$80.00 second hand to new at the pet stores $169.00.
Your price including shipping $53.97.

Would buy from you again if price is as good as my first purchase. Thanks

The kennel was easy to set up. Large enough to hold our rot puppy 2 bowls and a bed. This cage would be suitable for a full grown medium dog with no issues. The handles that come with the cage are easy to remove and make moving it around so much easier. The total set up time was less than 5 minutes.
Great value!!!

Crate has been great for our boxer mix puppy. The divider is wonderful as we've been able to make a snug spot for him so he is not tempted to potty in a far corner. Good construction. Not very easy to break down, so not good for short trips in car.
