5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent,
By Lisa (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Midwest Black E-Coat Exercise Pen, 24 Inches by 30 Inches (Misc.)
We have a young, 15 lb. Doxie/Jackie mix who has a LOT of energy. We bought this pen primarily so we could use it as a barrier between rooms, and it works great for that. We use one of the end sections as a "door" for us (and him) that we set against the wall when we want to close off the room; we stretch three of the adjoining sections in short "V"s for the length of the room opening; and then we "fold" the remaining partitions together and set them against the opposite wall. It is completely free standing this way, which means it doesn't rub against the walls (unless our dog jumps against it, which he has been known to do--but it doesn't fall over when does this because of how it's propped against the wall, and that's important). We've also used it as a pen, and it worked great for that too. We wondered if our little guy would be able to knock it over when it was in its pen shape, but if he tried, it didn't come down. We left him in it while we ran errands for a couple of hours, and when we came back, it was exactly as we'd left it. He's pretty well potty trained at this point, but we also wondered if we left him in the pen (rather than his kennel) while we were gone if he'd break protocol and do his business in there since he has a lot more room in the pen than he does in his kennel. But he didn't make any messes at all; so I would recommend it for dogs who are at or near the end of their potty training but still need to be confined while their owners are gone for a short period of time. A final word (no, really, I swear): We really like the black coating. Some friends of ours have a gold pen they offered to loan us, but we don't like the way the gold one looks. The black is more "stylish" (which, let's face it, does matter to some of us), and if the pen winds up rubbing against a wall, the black rubs off a little bit (which is quickly and easily cleaned off) but doesn't harm the wall. (Our friends' gold pen rubbed against one of their walls and left scratches on it.)

Perfect for my French bulldog..,
By Happy Mom of 4 "Jen" (Carlsbad, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Midwest Black E-Coat Exercise Pen, 24 Inches by 24 Inches (Misc.)
We love this pen. It is large enough for the puppy and for an adult or child to sit in and play with the dog. When opened up it spans a very large entry to the great room in our home giving us the ability to confine her to an area of the house. It is strong and sturdy and although she is a puppy I can imagine her using it even as a 30lb adult dog. For larger dogs, I definitly would consider buying the taller 30" or more. This pen is extremely well priced and after shopping around at local pet stores this one was positively the best deal ever.

Basic Quality,
By
This review is from: Midwest Black E-Coat Exercise Pen, 24 Inches by 42 Inches (Misc.)
This is a very basic ex-pen, in spite of its coating. Having owned several brands, I find that Midwest's tend to rust the most and the earliest. The 42" height is useful for the toys and small terriers (as long as you don't have a climber!), giving enough height security while taking the edge off the weight versus a 48" pen. These pens aren't light! I wouldn't personally use a lower pen for any breed.
Toss the ground stakes, which you'll probably never use anyway, and toss any cheap snap hooks that may be included to close the pen. You'll want to buy some good-sized, solid brass snap hooks, which are a lot easier to use and won't rust. I recommend getting them at least 3" long. If you can wait, you can find a better ex-pen at almost any decent-sized dog show (or this one, for less money). 2115|R10VXGS0DEGMPG;2115|R3VM8XOIG9TS7V;2115|R2C5QG84ZV2WC;
