We used this to train our new small breed puppy. I felt if I left him in just a kennel he had no room to play so I put the kennel inside this structure and he could sleep there and play in the pen. Worked very well! We have it indoors in hardwood and it works just fine without being stakes down. It has a half zip cover included and when we’re hook I close it because he can climb out otherwise. Half of the cover is net so it is ventilated. Well designed. Perfect for our use and well made. Price right!

i love this playpen, easy to put up and great for my English bulldog. i wonder how long the floor mat will stay in good condition- it is good quality. i hope i can buy the floormat separately for years down the line.... i intend to keep this playpen for her whole life and i think it is durable enough.
