I purchased this dog crate for my beagle.He is a very distractive puppy, and will chew things up if he is left unattended. 

I wanted him to have a very large crate because he has to spend up to 8 hours a day in it while my boyfriend and I are at work. 

This crate does just the trick. It is sturdy, perfect in size for what we wanted, and the price was right. I believe that this crate will last for a long time.
