I have a 6 month old puppy, and wanted to get a crate that would be a good fit for when he's full grown. I decided on this crate for it's good reviews and reasonable price, and I haven't been disappointed! I'm currently using the divider, as he's still too small to be using the whole crate, and it's worked out great for me. I know there have been some reviews about dogs having chewed up the crate, but personally, I think a large dog could chew through any crate if it wanted to. I think this crate provides a good compromise between sturdiness and portability. It's somewhat heavy, but definitely possible for someone (man or woman) to pick it up to put in their car. Overall, I definitely recommend this crate. It's been great for us!
