First things first this kennel is ginormous. It took me about an hour to put it all together that is only because I mixed up putting piece 6 on the bottom and piece one on top. (6 is the bottom, 1 is the tip). This kennel is actually larger than those kennels they sell at Petsmart that are the extra large crates with a turtle shell structure and the fence. I have an 80 pound dog and he fits in here with absolutely no trouble and has more room to turn around and stretch and in than ordinary kennel. It might be expensive but I’m using it as a piece of furniture as well. Highly recommend￼
