I purchased a crate prior to welcoming home my French Bulldog puppy (Henri Valentine). I have never crate trained a dog before and was nervous about it, but wanted him to have his own cozy, secure place to sleep that was NOT my bed. 

I knew that I didn't want one of the ugly wire crates, and I happened upon fable and was impressed by the stylish design. I was willing to pay more for something that provided a lasting solution that wasn't an eyesore. 

Henri has slept in it since his first night home with no problems. I like that the acrylic door allows him to see out, providing a good balance of security and transparency. 

He's still very little, so right now he fits in his crate (large) with a bed, snuggle puppy (anxiety relief, heartbeat plush), blanket, and room to spare.

It's definitely not a highly transportable unit, and is intended to function as a piece of furniture. Very pleased with the purchase!
