Sadly this hutch doesn't last very well in the weather. It's in a cove area of our back yard that only gets about 3 hours of sunlight plus we live in California so the weather is pretty good. It started to fall apart within two months. I put  liquid nail on the slats to keep together. The hutch now stays in our garage which our rabbit doesn't like. Also note that since it's made out of wood, rabbits will naw on it. It is very nice looking though.
