I received the pet crate promptly. It assembled quickly and easily. It has a nice metal gate at the front, which appears sturdy plus provides air venting for your pet. My only complaint is the carrying handle. It is of cheaper plastic, and comes out of the slots easily. For instance, if you have a heavy pet, and you pick up the crate at an angle (not straight up and down), the handle may come off. The handle is not hard to put back into the two slots, but you might drop your pet if you aren't careful. They should work on improving the handle.
