Dog Breeder Review: Fantastic crate, identical to more expensive ones
I was hesitant to buy this crate because I saw some of the negative reviews and as a disabled person, I was worried that I would have trouble managing the latches, but it was on sale and then had a coupon and so my roommate and I both bought one of these crates. Both of the crates came in fantastic condition. They were in boxes that were dented so I was a bit worried but the crates were in perfect condition. The latches work smoothly, unlike one of the reviews stated.I have bought dozens of crates in the past because I breed a luxury type of golden retriever. With every puppy I sell I send a crate home with them. In fact I crate train my puppies before they leave. So as you can imagine getting crates inexpensively that are still quality is important to me.The picture is of a 4.5 month old golden retriever that I moved from a 30 inch crate where his head and his butt were touching both ends and he couldn’t sit up straight to this 42 inch crate which should last him for life. It’s gonna be a great size for him to grow into. His mom doesn’t even like crates and as soon as I set this up, she went inside of it before he did which was kind of funny. I realize that doesn’t really say anything about the crate but clearly she thought it was a good crate too.If you’re seeing little prongs on the top of it, that’s just the divider that I set on top of it. My dog is potty trained so there is no need for me to use it. One of the reviews complains that the dividers tips were metal. I have to tell you, out of all the crates I’ve bought in my lifetime I’ve never seen one where the divider tips weren’t metal. The secret to ensuring that your dog doesn’t fishhook their eyes or another part of their body on these is that once you put the dividers in you use pliers and you pinch them. This does mean that if you have to move the divider or take it out then you have to open it with the pliers again, but that’s the way to safely put them in.Also, I want to tell people about a little hack that you can do with these crates, which is awesome if you need a bigger crate or want to put two dogs in a crate you can remove one of the end panels by opening up the little hooks on the bottom and then you can zip tie two different crates together at the end. This makes one long crate and it’s something that I did for puppies as they were being crate trained, and were transitioning from being able to be together all the time to being alone in a crate. It works great. Doesn’t permanently damage the crate you just open the hook slightly push down on the side of the door. The door comes off. You do that on both crates. You remove the doors and store them somewhere safe and then later on you can put them back on and tighten the hooks back up with pliers and it doesn’t damage them. It doesn’t make them weak.I did see that some of the people that left reviews got this as a free item and man I wish I would’ve been here for that. But I don’t mind paying what I did for it and I wouldn’t mind paying a little bit more without the coupon. This is literally the exact same as the crate that I had him in before, just a different brand and actually the crate I had him before cost me just as much as this one did and was only 30 inches and came bent. Different brand entirely but this crate is exactly the same but did not come bent. This one fit better in the box it came in too.You won’t be disappointed in this crate.

good if your on a budget or traveling
it’s a good cage for the price! if you have a dog that will try to escape i would definitely look for something more sturdy.. we got this because it’s very easy to take down and put up for traveling. i was a little scared to purchase because i feel like nothing ever fits my 60lbs dog but he has plenty of room and i could see i dog up to 120lbs fitting in here. overall im very impressed and don’t regret buying.. both the doors are very sturdy and well made

Nice Crate bad latches
I bought 2 of the exact same crates. Very easy to assemble. Delivery was quick. One crate was perfect and easy to use the other not so much. Didn’t notice that gate latches didn’t quite line up and crate was hard to latch. Of course that had to be the one in the bedroom. Tried to realign the slide latch but it was welded on wrong and there was no way to correct this. Had already discarded the boxes so no way to send this back. Lesson learned is try what you buy for a few days before throwing away the packaging. UPDATE: Had to buy larger crate as puppy is now getting bigger. Golden is now pushing 5 months old and is 45lbs so 36-inch crate seems a little small especially in height. Old crate weighed in at 22.93 lbs. and new 48 inch weighs in at 36.6 lbs. Although both crates have the same latching problem the new and larger crate is made of thinner wire gauge and not as sturdy as the 36-inch crate. So, if you have a rather energetic dog, he may be able to bend and destroy the door. My pup is pretty docile and loves his crate, but he has already discovered how flimsy the door is. Maybe they used smaller gauge wire to lessen the weight of bigger crate or keep the price down. Whatever the reason it was a bad idea.

Good for most dogs but not for stubborn dogs
Works for most dogs just not mine. My dog destroyed it and escaped from the kennel. Not heavy duty.

Good fit for my boxer/shepard dog. Easy to put up. Two doors allows for different positions.

You can tell They are mass produced. I bought two. One is fine. It does come with a divider which is why I have it 4 stars and a side door too if you don’t want to use the front. But on the second one the top latch is sticky and a bit warped. It will work itself out in time. Sturdy and easy to assemble. I would buy again.
