My husband just put this together yesterday, so far, so good! I really like the look of it and it is sturdy, we'll see what it looks like once we get home from work after our doggo being in there all day. The only issue I had with it was that it was not all that easy to put together. It took my husband and son hours to put together after I had tried to put it together myself, and we are pretty competent people, just make sure you have some time set aside to put it together.
