Our dog loves it. We leave the middle gate open so he has extra room to stretch out. Some minor cosmetic damage to different pieces from shipping that did not warrant dismantling unit to replace or waiting to assemble, though Wayfair offered. Wish instructions were had a little more information. Only diagram images. Had to disassemble a few pieces and reassemble when parts do not align. Have to pay attention to hole alignments. One mistake can set you back an hour. 3-4 hour assembly time. Real wood good quite item. Happy with our purchase
