My review is long, but bear with me :)
I bought these (a large and a small) a while back but just recently assembled & started using them. They're nicely sized. The large one is where my Pit Bull sleeps at night. There's more than enough room for her to walk into it normally (no ducking or back-swaying) She can't stand normally inside it, turn around freely and sleep comfortably. The small one is shared by my 2 small lap dogs. They're old (about 15 years old) so they're not active or hyper, they don't jump all over each other. One sleeps towards the back of the table/crate and the other sleeps in the front by the door. My dogs have been crate trained for many years now so crating at night isn't new to them. It's their "normal", it's what they're used to. These tables just eliminated the big clunky wire crates (that my sensitive skinned Pit Bull would use to rub her back on until it bled.) Now they still get crated but their "crates" are also tables that can be used for all sorts of things. Below I will list pros/cons: Pros: • It's a table dog crate. It's genius! • Not an eyesore like most standard "dog crates" • Perfect for dog owners who crate their dog(s) and don't have a lot of room/space. Since the crate is a table, you get a product that has multiple uses. • The tables are sturdy. Cons: If you're like me and have dogs who have been crate trained for a long time, these tables will be an adjustment. Used to just have to holler out "Beds!" And my dogs would run to their crates & get in. They seem to be slightly confused by the tables being "beds". Lol, but they learn fast. SIDE NOTE: I would not recommend these to animal owners whose pets are not at all familiar with crates or completely crate trained. I would not use these to start crate training a puppy or an animal that has "accidents" regularly inside the house. Simply because when beginning to crate train for the first time, especially with puppies/young dogs, accidents are bound to happen. These tables are exactly that: tables. A large amount of urine or a pee puddle that isn't cleaned up IMMEDIATELY would probably warp/ruin the floor of the table crate. Regular dog crates are usually either hard plastic or metal wire with a plastic bottom, which aren't affected by accidents/getting wet. Since my dogs are older and have been crate trained for years, this wasn't a concern or issue for myself. Also, because of that, I haven't looked into liners or plastic trays that could fit the area inside the crate table. If you could find something like that, that would fit the entire area, accidents wouldn't be too damaging. But it would need to fit snuggly, side to side-back to front, with no spaces. :::Above is my own personal opinions on the product. I purchased, assembled and use the product. I did not receive this product/crate table for free and I did not receive it at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest review. I have shared my personal opinions, experience and ideas to help potential buyers decide whether or not the tables would work for their animal/situation. I hope my review has been helpful.
