MidWest Solutions Series XX-Large Heavy Duty Double Door Dog Crate, XX-Large, 54-in

The box it came in was shredded and some of it was bent. This was not like any other crate I've purchased before that came assembled where all you had to do was unfold it and snap the ends in place. This came in 6 pieces that had to be assembled but it came with no instructions! It took me an hour and a half to try to put it together and nothing quite fit right. I had to get my pliers out to bend and reshape areas damaged in shipping and to get the sides and bottom to connect. I would not recommend this crate to anyone!

This is excellent for our great dane. He's about 100 pounds and outgrew his smaller one (Large, 42"). This larger one (XXL, 54") makes him comfortable. He actually enjoys going into it. I was worried about the assembly because I didn't have a huge space and would have to assemble by myself. I was encouraged by someone else saying they were able to. I was, too. Instead of doing the left/bottom/right in one step, I did left/bottom and right/bottom separately and used something (wall, dresser, etc.) to prop it up. The same for the top (left propped against wall, right against dresser). Another concern was possible damage during delivery, since I'd read so many others with issues.

I have a shepherd mix that had leg surgery. I needed a crate big enough to allow her to get up and move around. I didn’t realize how tall the crate was, but overall I am very pleased. It is well constructed and definitely less expensive than buying the same type of crate at a “box” store. This is the second crate I bought from Chewy.com. I imagine they are “cleaning up” the industry with their reasonable prices and free shipping over a certain dollar amount. Keep up the good work.

It’s a decent size for my dog. Didn’t realize I was going to have to literally put it together. Took me over hour and the use of plyers and a couple of smashed fingers to take two of the sides apart. I’m guessing during shipping it got smashed together. Other than that I would recommend this cage for any Great Dane owners.

I love the heavy duty construction and the large doors. I had no trouble assembling the crate by myself, it took about 30 minutes, but I had more trouble unpacking it because of the way the panels were locked together.

After a bit of unpacking and figuring out how to get the panels to fit, we have a very large, wonderful crate. Maya loves it with her bed and goes in at will. She is a 70 lb shepherd with plenty of room.

This is a very nice and sturdy crate. You will need a second person to help get it put together as it is heavy duty. One thing I wish it had included was a flyer with the instructions for setting it up. I did go back several times to watch the video, so that did help.

I paid $130 for a cage that did not have all the parts included. Not happy and neither is my puppy who will now have to wait even longer for a bigger cage.

I absolutely love this dog crate! We have a full grown boxer and a 6 month old growing german shepherd and this crate is big enough for both of them! The only thing I had a problem with is putting it together. It does say it takes 2 people but it was only me since my husband is in the Marine Corps and doesn't get home until very late most nights. But other than assembly it is very sturdy!

Hard to put together unless you have a large space and more than 1 person is a must. Some if the ends were bent from shipping.
