I bought this crate because our dogs were getting out of hand while we are away at work. Oddly enough I haven't had to lock them in yet since I set it up. Seems the threat was all that was needed! I leave the door open and they enter and exit at will and the cats even join in their merry games of play attacking each other through the bars. Good crate, very easy assembly and the gate function is a wonderful option. Not the sturdiest of crates, I would not recommend for a non crate trained pet.

Pros: Great value, blends with furniture more than an all metal crate. Convenient solid top. Nice color.
Cons: Not sturdy enough to hold a non crate trained pet.
