  • Excellent value, very comparable to the Ruffland with some perks!
Size: Intermediate Color: Orange
This is an awesome kennel, pretty similar alternative to a Ruffland at a lower price point and without the annoyance of finding and working with a dealer to buy. I got the intermediate size of this- it’s much wider than my large Ruffland, though a couple inches shorter in length. Everything about it is solid and comparable. My only issue is the door latches- they take a significant amount of hand strength to open and close and the door is a bit difficult to shut properly. I have tiny baby hands though, and have had some hand injuries, so folks with bigger stronger hands shouldn’t struggle as much as I do. The Ruffland is a lot easier to open and close, and the door is sturdier in terms of latch. All in all I’m really pleased with this crate. It’s very well made, great design with the handles, and a better value for the price given the intermediate is that much larger than the Ruffland LARGE. I’m impressed. It’s a little lighter too, easier to carry and load into the car. It seems pretty on par in terms of safety, though I’d love to see them do some of the testing on it eventually. But I feel good using this as a car crate. It’s attractive, sturdy, and not as dark inside as my Ruffland. My girl is happy jumping into it in the back of the car without hesitation! Oh and the standard color selection is nice, much larger than Rufflands two standard colors. I like the orange, it’s very attractive in my car. Bring on some girly colors though- with a dog named Magenta, I want a pink kennel once the color selection expands. I’ll buy more of these for sure. ... show more

  • Worth the money

Excellent, well built kennel. Highly recommend.

  • Definitely not worth the price.
Size: X-Large Color: Coyote Granite
This product is not military grade, rough and sturdy. My puppy scratched the front inside up in less than 10 minutes. Definitely not worth the money. And the seller offered me a 10% discount to keep the item, I declined as I needed to be a crate that would be safe for my puppy. The seller sent me a label and never informed me of a restocking fee and a $200 one at that!!!! Insane. Seller is not willing to work with me. ... show more

  • Awesome kennel
Size: X-Large Color: Olive
Worth the money and then some. So much more spacious than the ruffland and it’s just as sturdy. Only thing I would like is a stronger spring for the door but it still works awesome

  • I do not recommend !
Size: X-Large Color: Coyote Granite
Save your money and get a better one. This was expensive and I expected more. Price isn't everything. The plastic is thin and the door is capable of opening on both sides but the fasteners are of poor material and do not fasten well.
