Customer Reviews
I’m mostly impressed, with a couple of small quirks.
Tl;dr: Huge crates, around 75lbs each. Seem sturdy. It would be nice for extra hinge screws as I had a missing hinge screw upon arrival. Full Review:These crates arrived yesterday, and I was able to assemble both of them within 2 hours solo. I didn’t run into any issues with fitting, but note I followed the instructions to keep all bolts loose until every piece was partially mounted. From there, I tightened everything without issue. I would like to note that I had extra hardware, but did not have extra hinge screws. This is an issue because one of the hinges was missing a screw upon opening of the package. Since I plan to remove one of the doors to combine the crates, I’ll be able to repurpose those screws into the missing slot, but it is a little inconvenient. These crates are huge for my 25lb Basenji’s, but I couldn’t find any other all-metal interiors for them ( one of them will attempt to chew through just about anything). The base of the crate almost feels like vinyl, and is slippery under my dog’s feet. If your dogs tend to chew fabric, it may be worth coating the bases with something that provides a little more grip. There are leveling feet that help you slide these around, but I would recommend furniture pads to prevent scratching if you’re moving them. They aren’t too hard to slide. Overall, these are very durable, aesthetic, and functional dog crates that will hopefully give my doggos some additional comfort and security.

Dogs and cats are both happy
Omg, these crates are amazing!! The instructions were very easy on how to put them together. When together they look very nice. My dogs and cats both love these crates. They are made of a thicker medal which is. Nice cause we have a big dog that needs that. The crate has three doors on it, one on each end of the crate and one. Up front. It makes it easy to clean when you need to clean it. We use ours a a tv stand because they look beautiful

Dog Crate
A very great product. My dogs have to be in a crate while nobody is home otherwise they will destroy the house. I don’t care much for the metal black crates that you would like buy at Walmart so I decided to go with these also because it has the top of it I can use for storage or a table or for pretty much anything was even thinking of using for end tables for the end of my couch. Very easy to put together as well the only issue I ran into is one of the parts I noticed as I was putting it together was bent so I just emailed the company and they were happy to send me out a replacement part so it all worked out perfectly!!! Very happy with this product. They were actually bigger than I thought but it gives my dogs plenty of room. And I added the doggie beds in there and they fit perfectly!!!

Spacious
I love these cages! I have a pitbull and 2 small dogs (they share one cage) and they love laying in these cages when they don’t need to be. It’s spacious enough for my pitbull to sprawl out while sleeping and stand up fully. It was very easy to put together, only took about 20 minutes. And I can move it easily when I need to clean around or underneath it.

Plenty of room
I have 2 large German shepherds. I first bought a different furniture crate that was 70 inches long. The dogs was 6 months old and that was too small for them. So I bought this one to replace the other. These have plenty of room. I have had these crates for about 8 months now. I have them connected. They are solid metal except the floor. So they are sturdy and well built. We have 4 bowls in there so each has their own food and water. Plenty of room for that and 2 fully grown German shepherdsAssemble is easy. Not a ton of screws like the other one had. Went together in 2 hours. And that’s taking my time. One issue I came across was one of the side locks broken. The spring in it came out and was causing the latch to stay open. Since I have my crates joined I had an extra door I used. If our son breaks that again I have found latch’s that are like the front latch. Found them on Hawkins Woodshop. I will add them to crate. It has the room to be able to do that. I definitely recommend these if you have large dogs. They are sturdy and have plenty of room. This was the better buy over our first pick that look more like furniture. And the prices were the same. Definitely wish I had bought these first.

Sturdy, Beautiful, Great Customer Service
I bought these kennels for my two dogs (28lb and 35lb mixes), to replace two old, typical wire kennels. They were simple to assemble but definitely easier with two people. The first kennel was in excellent shape, but the other's front door latch appeared welded on crooked (and a bit damaged) and the rod on the door would not fit into the barrel on the frame -- so the door couldn't be latched closed. Sort of defeats the purpose of kenneling your dog, right? I sent a message to the email on the manual explaining the problem, along with photos of the good latch on the first kennel compared to the bad latch on the other. Just like the note on the manual states, I got a reply within 24 hours, and after a few more details, was sent a replacement door. Got the door within a week and installed it, and the rod lines up with the barrel perfectly. Now my dog can't escape and terrorize the house! So seriously, if there is any damage or issue, email them. Thank you, Cindy, for all your help. In general, the kennels look more like furniture than kennels, and I like the table tops that I can use for displaying plants and other things. The bars seem much sturdier than the old wire kennels (which, over the years, both dogs had bent and/or destroyed in random but thankfully infrequent fits of rage). Hopefully they will last for many years to come!
