I spent many hours online looking at dog houses before choosing this one. I read all the reviews which I found helpful in making my decision. I admit the unfavorable reviews caused me to pause but I am so happy I went ahead and ordered this dog house. I will tell you when it arrived, the packaging was in poor shape, and I was afraid there might be some damage, but to my surprise everything was in fine order. Assembly was quick and easy. Everything fits snugly and it looks just like advertised! I'm very satisfied with my purchase! Thank you, Wayfair! You do have just what I need!
