Stylish and sturdy dog crate
I really love this crate! It's roomy enough for my three small dogs and looks great. The height and modern design are. I’d recommend it to others! Putting it together was simple; just make sure to have a screwdriver, or a drill is even better. With my not-so-great carpentry skills and ADHD, it took me a bit longer, but it was so worth it. It looks! You won't be disappointed!

Fantastic quality and beautiful kennels
We are really happy with these dog kennels! We got one small and one large, and they’ve exceeded what we hoped for. They’re well made, and I like the barn door feature! Our pups are loving their new spaces, and they blend in nicely with our home decor—so much better than those old wire crates. Putting them together was a breeze, and the instructions were clear. The locks and latches work perfectly. Worth the investment. Plus, they came quicker than we expected!

Perfect mix of style and function
I got this crate over a year ago for my Shiba Inu after she quickly grew out of her puppy crate. It took her a little time to get used to it, but it’s been fantastic! It blends nicely with the other furniture in the room, and I love having the extra storage on top for her toys, treats, harnesses, and other gear. Putting it together was easy, especially if you’ve done similar furniture before. One of my favorite features is the front sliding door which has both a regular metal latch and a barrel bolt lock. When she was a puppy, we used both locks to keep her in, but now we just use the metal latch, and she knows how to open it when she wakes up. It’s held up well after a year of use, and cleaning it is a breeze. She only had one accident early on, but once I took her bed out, everything wiped down easily. I highly recommend this crate, just be sure your dog is the right size before you buy!

Great Dog Crate!
This crate is sturdy and well-made. My little dog has lots of space for his time in the kennel. Just a heads up, the barn door can be opened if my clever pup nudges the latch, so keep that in mind. Overall, I’d definitely buy this again if I needed another kennel.

Great upgrade from normal crates
My little princess loves this penthouse crate. It did take some time to assemble but it is definitely worth it. The material is of great quality. And looks amazing. The sliding door does make sounds and it is enough to annoy my munchkin but she is a skittish dog. The latch on the sliding door should be stronger and another mechanism to lock it in place should be better. I am waiting for the day that my smarty figures out how to open it, and I am sure she will. With that said, you do have a latch at the bottom to keep the door from sliding and that should help prevent the door from completely opening.

Great looking crate
I wanted a dog crate that looked like furniture as I would be keeping it in my dining room/living room area. Initially I wanted one with drawers, but it turned out that I was going to get to pick up my rescue dog about a week earlier than I thought, so I ordered this as it was scheduled to come the day before I was going to pick up my dog and none of the crates with drawers I was looking at would come in time. Unfortunately, it then got delayed by several days (can't fault the product for that, maybe Hawkins Woodshop). So, I do wish I just ordered one with the drawer even though I wouldn't get it before I got my dog since that was the case with this anyway. I "solved" the organization issue that caused by buying a couple baskets that I put on top of the crate to hold my dog's things, they just aren't out of sight when there are guests as I had wanted. Still, it looks like furniture, and not just a cage. I have friends or family over nearly every week. I've had multiple guests comment on how good it looks, and some who are dog owners are considering buying this crate, or one like it, after seeing mine. Be careful when putting it together. The particle board isn't as strong/thick as I expected. When putting one of the pegs into its hole, I used a hammer (like I've found helpful when putting ikea furniture together) and it pushed it all the way through, even though I just used a gentle tap with the hammer. I took the piece of particle board it ripped out and repaired it as best I could with Gorilla Glue. I thought it was going to look terrible, but it is hidden enough that, even when you look for it, it is hard to tell I needed to do a repair. Still, if you are careful and just insert the pegs into their holes with your fingers you will be fine (again, do not use a hammer). I have only had it for about 2 months, so it is hard to judge durability yet, but it seems to be fine. It works as it should and keeps my dog in when he needs to be in his crate (and he will try to get out). I like that there are two doors. I feed him in his crate, so it is nice to have one for him to enter and exit the crate, and another for his food bowl.
