I bought this for my pitty that lives outside- I have it under roof coverage so haven't tested whether it's truly weatherproof- Appears to be able to hold my dogs weight nicely with no extra support underneath- Wood looks to be engineered but it's pretty solid- Installation was ok, not straightforward though.- Did not use the springs as they look so unstable and cheap. It doesn't matter as you can open the lid and hold it anyway- So far it's accomplishing what it was intended for- Need to use it longer to better understand how far it can go but it's a rating of 5 so far- Give it a try - it's not the cheapest one but it looks a better option than the others

I just needed something quick, simple, and high quality for my pup and this actually delivered. The instructions were a bit hard to parse and the advice they give for assembly didn't work for me. What worked best was to just put the house upside down on top of the roof (without the floor), mark all the screw holes, and then assemble the hinge that way instead of doing it the strange way the instructions tell you to. Then put the floor in last, since the roof opens and you can just drop the floor in. Once we figured out how to put it together the easiest way, it was smooth sailing. It took maybe an hour to throw it together and my dog seems to like it. It's very sturdy and it's got a nice pine smell that should deter bugs. It comes stained and with a proper shingle roof. It looks nice on the porch and seems like it'll last for quite a few years, plus the top is only slightly angled and can be used as a table if you have a small space and need your furniture to multi-task. The 40.75x26.75x28.25 is the perfect size for my 60lb Blue Heeler mix and her favorite Ikea outdoor mat. She'll get a lot of use out of it in the fall and I'll get her a heated outdoor mat. (We don't make her stay outside, she just wants to.)

I purchased this dog house to convert into a duck house. I did make some improvements, however for the price i got a really good start.*Upon unboxing, i noticed the piece with hinges was broken in half. The box it shipped in was in great condition so unsure how it happened but i used some wood glue to fix it. Problem solved.*Assembly took me less than an hour. It was very straightforward, all my holes lined up evenly enough. I assembled it alone. The wood had several gaps throughout ( Sides,bottom,corners) I used paintable white caulking meant for exterior windows to plug all gaps. I caulked each board on the bottom both top and bottom and also the sides. This made it extremely sturdy, at this point i was able to use a hand truck to move it around*I wanted to make it completely waterproof so i used some black truck bed liner on the inside. i did several coats*i needed to make ventilation so i added a 2" round plastic vent on each side and caulked it in, then painted the entire outside roof includedi have had it outside for four months at this point, it is holding up extremely well. I added a small piece of wood to trap the bedding inside because they kept spilling out the bedding and that seemed to fix the problem. one of the hinges broke almost immediately, i removed it and have been using just the right side , it still functions the same. i do anticipate having to replace the hinges at some point but thats a very menial taskI would recommend this dog house, however you just need to add a little tlc to improve it. Our ducks and geese use it every night (we have three cayuga ducks and three brown chinese geese and they fit very snugly with the male geese at the entrance protecting the others)

Fairly easy to assemble by myself (getting on a bit female) although take care with the roof as the holes for the hinges are not marked and I had to reposition. The lid does not open completely vertically so don’t position as such. Lid is heavy so this is the trickiest if you have no help.Diagram not brilliant at all for the way the screws are positioned at the back.However, very sturdy, well made and I used the box to make a liner as the kennel is for my cats (and parcel deliveries).

È molto facile da montare. Per i miei cani : schnauzer nano 8kg e lakeland terrier 7,5kg, la dimensione dell'entrata è giusta. Interno è spazioso, in una cuccia ci possono stare tutti e due insieme. L'odore iniziale si sente come dicono in tante recensioni. Ma dopo 24 ore lasciato fuori è già diminuito, penso che dopo 3 giorni sia a posto. X la resistenza devo vedere ancora. Comunque le ho messe dove non ci batte il sole diretto, dove non piove ma bagna solo quando c'è temporale. I cani stanno ancora studiando!

El unico pero que le pongo a esta casa es que es de madera muy delgada, aun no se que pasara cuando se moje, pero hasta el momento, a mis perros les gusto mucho y se ve muy bien, es para dos perros de Raza Maltes.

There are a lot of mixed reviews on this product so I felt obligated to post my two cents. This dog house is everything you would expect for a $130 product. We were considering building our own but when we calculated the cost of materials we were already in excess of $150 and we would have spent an entire weekend building it.Pros: I purchased this in the XL for my 60lb pitbull and my 25lb corgi mix to share and it is plenty spacious for them. It is attractive looking and sturdy enough for them to bound in and out of it without it breaking. The hinged top is awesome, and the removable floor is sweet too. I really like that it's up off the ground so it won't get all wet in the weather. It only took about an hour to assemble and was very straightforward. They both went right in and took a nap, so I think they approve. It also smells nice.Cons: I had to stain it to weatherproof, but I painted it to match my house so it looks great. The wood is very thin and somewhat flimsy and I suspect that I will need to put some effort into insulating it further if the pups are going to stay warm in it this winter. The floor is a thin material and I'm almost certain that I'll have to replace it at some point. The hinge arms that hold the top together are total junk and I threw them out instead of installing them. The hinges on the back of the roof are pre-installed, but there are these arms that are supposed to prevent it from opening too far and snapping off, fortunately mine is up against the wall of my garage so it don't need the arms to ensure it doesn't fall open.In summary, if you're looking for a dog house that's as sturdy as a human house or if you have a really large destructive dog I wouldn't buy this product. If you're looking for a reasonably priced dog house and you're willing to put some effort into making it weatherproof and insulated then this is a great product.
