Good Crate for the Money.  Finish holds up better than cheaper crates but will come off over time on latches and other friction points. Middle weight.  If you have dogs with separation anxiety, don't like being crated, or are aggresive or strong... you should look at the heavier models like the Lifestages or newer Ovation crates. 48" crate is 33" tall where some others are 32" or even 30" 42" crate is 30" tall which is pretty typical 36" crate is 25" tall though some including Lifestages are taller.
