We have two large dogs and wanted a crate that was also a furniture piece. This crate works, but is not ideal as it is more for medium size dogs. Our shorter large dog is able to easily use the crate, however, she has to duck her head to get in and she cannot sprawl out the way she does in the regular style dog crate we previously had. It works for what we needed, a safe space for our one dog who needs it. I just wish it was 2 inches taller.
