We needed a dog crate for downstairs to kennel our dog while going on errands because he has a tendency to get into mischief while we are away. Because of the location we needed something that looked more like furniture instead of the usual wire type of kennel. This was just the right size and is stylish enough to be in the family room or foyer. Assembly was not too difficult however the latches for the single door did not line up well so it was challenging getting to get that door properly secured. Because of this it is unlikely we would use this door. The hardware for the twin doors in front work perfectly so we are happy about that.
