Aesthetic:;Love this crate! It looks stunning in my living room. I have a small apartment size living room, so it does take up a lot of space. It is quite bulky but very aesthetically pleasing to the eye. It looks 1000x better than the bulky metal crates.;Design Flaws for Destructive Chewers:;I have two mixed breed puppies (1 year old) that love to chew, so sadly one of them did chew the inside of the crate while she was in there. I recommend the builders of this crate make the interior part of the crate a metal frame to prevent strong chewers from chewing through the wood since the wood that is used is porous - like plywood. Sturdy, but strong chewers will destroy it. I reinforced the interior with metal brackets and so far that seems to have helped.;Also, this is a dual crate that can be made into one large crate when you remove the middle divider. However, there is a wooden piece that runs across the middle of the crate that can't be removed so it still keeps the crate divided into two sections to some degree. If the designer was able to remove that wooden piece in the middle that would be better for a larger dog or two dogs that want to share the same space.;Build Process:;I built this massive crate by myself and it took a very long time. The instructions were fantastic and everything was labeled very nicely. So, it wasn't difficult just VERY time consuming. It would help to have a friend help you build it and if one isn't available, then put on a binge worthy TV show and get to work!;Overall I love this crate and highly recommend it to non destructive dog owners.
The tray can be easily pulled out for cleaning, making maintenance a breeze. It saves me time and effort, ensuring that the crate remains clean and hygienic for my dogs.
