I bought it for my 2 dogs so I could leave them together when I am not home. I have two crates for them but they don’t like to be separated. That is why I bought something larger. I set this up by myself in about a half hour. It’s also a perfect place to get them out of the way when entertaining but allowing them to still be around everyone. They go in there on their own during the day to rest in the shade... I absolutely love this thing! No regrets.

Pros: VEry quick and easy to set up. Gives tmy dogs a place to stay when I'm not home or when I have guests over and don't want them in the way.
Cons: The connectors for the corners of the octagon are plastic worried trhey may break. Inddors it's fine, outdoors you will need some sort of flooring so the dogs can't dig underneath and get out.
