Perfect for what we need! Our 7 month year old pup has finally outgrew ("outgrew," i.e. finally chewed the final hole and this dog mom refuses to sew it up) his foldable/material play pen. This new pen is tall enough for us to contain him without jumping, durable and flexible as far as shape. Nicest play pen we could find on the market that doesn't look like a metal cage! It's worth the investment. Note, the expresso color is fairly dark (very, very, dark brown) - darker than it appears in the stock photos.
