For the price, this kit is a great value. It's obviously pretty cheaply made, but for those who MIGHT want to get into dog agility it's a great kit to make that determination without spending a couple hundred bucks. Would also be a great toy for kids to use to train their dogs. Shipping was quick - as usual. Didn't have to read the directions in order to figure out how to use it. The ribbon awards were a bit overkill, but the rest is pretty good. Just keep it put up and don't leave your dog unsupervised with it. This led to my beagle stealing the top of the jumping bar and running around the yard with it and she managed to chew one end up pretty good, but it still works.
