Love It!! November 6, 2008 Our dog used to actually eat a hole in plastic kennels. So I decided to get a metal one. This crate is super. Because it has two doors, it is easier to decide where you want to put it. I have ours in the knee hole of the desk we don't use. Also, the dog loves the crate! At 'bedtime' we tell her to go to bed and she does just that. She is a miniature Daschund, and she has so much more room to lay out in this crate. Also, she can see what is going on around her. I would recommend this to everyone.
Couldn't Be Better July 13, 2008 This is the first time we ever tried to cage train one of our dogs and we chose the Midwest Life Stages crate to do just that. It is very easy to assemble and the extra wall to make the inside smaller for your puppy is a wonderful idea that really works. The odd thing that we didn't expect is that our Rocky loves to go into it to rest without us forcing him to.
It has front and side doors for easy access and is fairly lightweight. This cage is definitely a good buy considering that the price of cages in the store versus Amazon is much higher in many cases.
Not much else to say about this crate other than it is a must buy and it well worth the money.
great product July 3, 2008 The dog crates were so easy to assemble and they were just the perfect size! The best thing about them is that the dogs love them. I have 3 chihuahuas and two jack/rat terriers. The crates arrived in just a couple days after I ordered them. I was remodeling my garage and I the bulky air crates I used before took up too much room. These are perfect!
His new favorite spot! May 16, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It really did take just a few minutes to set up since it's a fold and carry model. Very sturdy construction. My Schnoodle jumped right inside! During the day, I keep both doors open because he likes to pop in and out of it. He sleeps in it at night. Great way to housebreak a dog.
Some specifications--
DOOR OPENINGS: The one on the longer side (24"), the opening is 12" wide, 15" high. On the shorter end (18"), the opening is approx 14" x 14". Doors swing to the left, and each door has two latches for extra security.
TWO PLASTIC HANDLES snap on and off and can be placed on the sides of the crate or on the top (depending on the weight of the dog).
PLASTIC PAN is removable, therefore can be easily cleaned if your furry friend leaves a "present".
One thing I did notice was that one of the metal pieces that connected one side of the crate to the bottom stuck out a bit. It may be just the construction of this particular one, but keep your eye out for sharp edges. I have his blanket in there for now, but am contemplating a cover /mattress/ bumper set (made specifically for crates) to make sure my little guy's cozy and safe.

It's very easy to put together and to take down. They shipped it very fast. I'm very happy with this crate. Love it!
