Review: Nice roomy kennel for extra large/giant dog breeds - Make sure you have plenty of room for this dog kennel, taking the measurements before you buy it is one thing, actually seeing it put together inside of the house is quite another! Our 3.5 month old great dane puppy was starting to look a bit cramped in an older 36" kennel we had. She still fit but looked very uncomfortable when she tried to stretch out and stand up. She looks so much more comfortable and has plenty of room to grow in this kennel. I read all of the horror stories about the condition people received their kennels in due to the size and weight so I was worried we would receive ours damaged too. Ours actually arrived in pretty good condition. The UPS man moved it around with a dolly and my husband wrestled it into the house. The box is huge and the kennel is very heavy. We sliced open the side and slid the kennel out. Everything is held together with white zip ties. A few of the panels were stuck together, but they were easy enough to unhook the side hooks from where they attached themselves. Putting this together was a bit of a chore, not because it was hard, but because it was big and bulky and there were two of us that insisted we knew what we were doing, so we argued over which way the panels should face, put them upside down a couple of times, then had to re-do them. This does come with a set of directions, but some of the pictures weren't really that clear. The picture on the outside of the box actually gives you a better idea on how this all fits together. There were a couple of places where the wires were bent and we had to straighten them out with a pair of pliers. Also one of the side wires had a broken weld where it connects at the top, it was next to one of the bent hooks (corner area) so it had probably been set down a bit too hard at some point during shipping. It doesn't seem like it will affect the kennel, and it doesn't show so I'm not going to worry about it. I'm not too pleased about the side door of this kennel though. The top slide bolt latch did not slide into the holder that was welded onto the side. The holder had been welded a tiny bit too low (quality control should have checked this), we had to bend the tip of the sliding pin down a little so it would be able to slide into the latch. The side door also seems a little stiff to open and close, as if it is misaligned. We can still open and close the door though, and once shut it is very secure. There were also a few areas we had to straighten out so the drop pins could connect the corners. Once this is put together it really is very sturdy. It is not flimsy at all, we are actually pleased at how sturdy this kennel looks and feels. The bottom pan slides in and out smoothly, and I won't worry about our dog spending time in the kennel while we are gone, or during the night. She loves the extra room and until she finishes growing she has plenty of room inside to sprawl out and play with all of her toys. The problem areas we found when this kennel first arrived were easy fixes, the completed kennel is large and strong. I checked around before I purchased this kennel and the price here was so much more reasonable than anywhere else, plus you get free delivery right to your house. If you have the room, and you have one of the giant breed dogs, then this kennel will be perfect. *Update 7/31/16- at 5.5 months old now our dane puppy is still growing. There is plenty of room in this kennel for her, her jumbo round Costco bed, and a stack of toys. She loves her crate! Our Aussie and the cats also love going inside to relax. Giant puppies can make giant messes, this crate is the perfect size for her and we are so happy that there is plenty of room inside for her to grow. No worries about her eating the couch while we are gone!
Review: Perfect Crate for training the perfect dog :-) - When I first got this crate, I knew I wanted to use it for crate training, however, I seriously had no idea what I was doing. Nada. Zilch. I thought we were all set. We have the crate. We have the puppy. Now what? It comes with a divider. I thought the divider was for two dogs, until my daughters fiancé showed me how to use it :-) If anybody else doesn’t know, the divider is designed to give them just enough room to turn around, lay down comfortably and sleep. You can adjust the divider as the puppy grows. Apparently, if you don’t use the divider, they will potty in the crate. The crate is working well for our puppy. I felt like a meany at first, but, it all worked out. Our puppy will randomly visit her crate during the day and does not see the crate as a punishment. The assembly is super easy. It’s strong, it’s sturdy & it’s actually bigger than what I visualized. It has this tray in the bottom that slides out for easy cleaning. The doors and latches are easy to use. It is definitely chew proof! It is difficult for me to adjust the divider as she grows, so I try to do that when somebody strong is available to help. I would definitely recommend this product. Update: Today we are still using this crate. The puppy is now five months old, and I also have a 12 year old the same breed - Border Aussies (Australian shepherd, mixed with border collie). I’m working on training them for different things, and every single time I say, the word crate, it’s a race to see who can get into the crate first! It’s more useful than just for potty training. It makes them feel safe, give them their own space to relax, and in our case or useful tool for other types of training. I certainly feel like we got our moneys worth out of it. I love it how the dogs still use it. I hope this review helps you!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: has the problem of sharp edges in the crate been corrected?**
A: No, it has not. I received the 36x23x25 intermediate crate today (2/22/2019) and the edges are definitely sharp. In the past two years, I have ordered two of the higher end MidWest Ultima Pro crates and neither had sharp edges. I wish that I purchased another Pro but I needed something lighter, cheaper for a growing puppy. I think the Midwest Pro is the way to go-thicker, sturdier, no sharp metal.

**Q: What are the dimensions?**
A: From their web site:  http://www.midwesthomes4pets.com/products/icrates-double-door-1500dd-series-218" Size: (18"L x 12"W x 14"H) - Weight: 8lbs22" Size: (22"L x 13"W x 16"H) - Weight: 9lbs24" Size: (24"L x 18"W x 19"H) - Weight: 14lbs  30" Size: (30"L x 19"W x 21"H) - Weight: 18 lbs36" Size: (36"L x 23"W x 25"H) - Weight: 22 lbs42" Size: (42"L x 28"W x 30"H) - Weight: 32lbs48" Size: (48"L x 30"W x 33"H) - Weight: 40lbs

**Q: Looking 2 buy double door crate for 2 dogs w/idea of using the separator 2 put each dog on a side 2 have access 2 their own door.  Will this work?**
A: As others have said, the configuration of the two doors is as shown in the pictures which renders the middle partition somewhat useless.  However, with a set of pliers and about 10 minutes of work, you can swap the two end pieces and have doors that access both sides.  If you bend back the 4 retaining loops on the bottom of both end pieces with some pliers and swap the two ends, the end piece with the door will then be separated from the side access door.  With the partition approximately in the middle, you then have room for 2 dogs with separate access.  One partition is larger than the other due to the width of the side door, and in my case, I ran the partition slightly diagonally to make them more even.  Hope this helps!

**Q: How do you insert the divider? It seems not wide enough to be engaged into both sides.**
A: The divider is wide enough to insert into both sides, you probably have to rotate it.  However, there is a small gap between the roof of the crate and the divider.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ durable & well made
*by F***R on August 7, 2025*

I have had 10 of these xxl Great Dane 54”crates for 3 years used in my home dog boarding / daycare business. I absolutely love them. The top patent pending L-hook is very valuable as it definitely adds stability to the top. I have had crates without this feature and the top is wobbly and the sides easily bow in at the top (even with zip ties to try to help). The L-hook is worth its weight in gold! The three slide bolt latches on each door is adequate. They are secure, strong, and easy to use. I know it says you will need 2 people to assemble, however I have put these together and taken them down myself multiple times. It just takes a little thought, planning, and creativity. The two door feature is VERY helpful. Some of the crates I have lined up on the wall to use the long side door. In another room I have them lined up to use the short side door. I like to use black zip ties to close and secure whichever of the two doors I am not using including the floppy handle to provide stability and reduce sounds when it shakes a little as they walk around. I like to I like to take a piece of finished plywood and cut it to cover part or all of the crate top to provide a counter for the dog’s food, meds, care sheet, etc. This crate is so tall that I don’t have an issue with dogs jumping up and stealing what is on top, though I am sure it is possible if you have a determined unattended pup. I sand the corners and edges round and smooth, paint it black to match, drill holes, and use black zip ties to attach it. If you are tight on space this shelf is very helpful for storage or at the least convenient for leashes and treats, etc. I don’t care for annoying sounds and so I like to take black zip ties and secure all the edges where two panels come together to increase stability and reduce friction squeaking. It is quite stable as is, however the black zip ties firm everything up and aren’t noticeable unless you are looking for them. I also like to put a piece of padded linoleum, train table grass, or towel between the crate pan and metal floor grid to provide some cushion for the dogs and reduce unnecessary noise from the two rattling together when a dog walks around in them. When the crate sinks down into the carpet it naturally helps with this, but not when it is on a solid floor. Also, I have a piece of underlayment (painted black on top to match) secured with black zip ties through drilled holes in it to the bottom of the crate to prevent rust marks & scratches to the floor, as well as an extra layer of material a dog has to work through if they try to escape through the bottom as the grid is larger than the top and sides. They also can’t rip up my carpet through the bottom or leak liquids onto the carpet if the crate pan develops a crack I am unaware of with a wood layer attached to the bottom. The bottom becomes like a sled and can easily be slid around myself to clean behind it. I take the rubber rollers off before I secure it to the wood underlayment. The crate pans are nice and thick. They do tend to crack in shipping since this is such a heavy product. However they happily and quickly ship me replacement crate pans when this happens. The pans are easy to clean & remove, hold up to light chewing, nail scratching, and cleaners. However occasionally when a dog throws up overnight the high acid in their stomach (which is strong enough to digest bones) will etch the gloss finish off before I can find and clean it up in the morning. Most pee, poo, water & food messes, and most throw up clean off quickly and leave no damage. I use metal crate buckets with back hooks for water and sometimes food and they do scratch off some of the black finish on the exact hook bars, but this is minor and an obvious reason for the wear and tear. Some of the finish also gets rubbed off at the latches, for the same reason of friction use. However the rest of the areas of the crates for the last three years still have its original sharp black glossy finish in tact! If you do have some spots scratched off, a black sharpie can hide a multitude of sins. 😂 The black color is classic and classy. I never noticed any offending odors upon delivery or assembly. The value for the product is excellent and you will get many years of use out of it, probably the life of the dog and more!
