Replaced the unsightly (and single-purpose) crate in the living room, and now serves both the humans and the dog. Our new "crable" makes for a nice end table to the couch, so the dog can be near us (but not on us) while we are watching television. Have to keep an eye on the front bottom trim piece, which is held in place by two magnets, and is easily knocked over by a bumbling dog - but that's more the dog than it is the crate.
