BestPet Heavy Duty Pet Playpen Dog Exercise Pen Cat Fence B, 40-Inch, Black

Ease of putting together, very sturdy. Can be configured for dog run. Can be folded up or disassembled for storage when not in use.

We bought this to use on camping trips with our 90lb Chessie and our 30lb Pit Bull / Heeler. We used it for the first time this last weekend...Memorial Day Weekend. Let me tell you, with 7 dogs in our camp and our two on their first camping trip (their first trip anywhere, ever) this thing was a God send. We let our Chessie run free a bit, our little one is still too young. We also kept them on handheld leashes and staked cables...all for brief periods of time before the other dogs acted up or ours needed a little break. This yard allowed our pups to stay outside for 90% of the time. They only went inside the trailer for brief periods to nap during the day. A GREAT WAY TO KEEP YOUR PUPS SAFE AND INVOLVED WITH THE FAMILY IN THE CAMP. NO ROAMING BETWEEN WALKS. My husband was skeptical at first and thought we really didn't need it. He changed his mind as soon as we stopped to set up camp! This fence is very easy to set up. Be careful moving the fence...take care to not move it while fully constructed, as it will bend the lock pins (Hubby had to straighten two I bent, but it was easy). Just remove one panel and "snake walk" the rest of the fence to the new location, if it is close, and you don't want to take the whole thing apart. However, it is a quick and easy set up. Very sturdy, too! We had a lot of interest from other campers in the area! They thought it was a great idea. SO SO GLAD we bought this fence!

I just bought a new house that doesn't have a fence, and I have five small dogs who live inside but do their "business" outside. I chose this product because of the customer reviews on Amazon. I purchased two of these pens and hooked them together (16 panels) and then placed them in a semi-circle around my backdoor. Instant fence! It's been almost 2 months with no problems at all. We've had some really severe storms, and the pen hasn't budged. Plus, the door is great, because I can get in and out if need be. The quality is great (no rust yet at all, even though our weather is crappy), the price was reasonable. Shipping was really expensive (about $33 each) because they are so heavy, but it was worth it. Plus, the cost of the pen plus shipping was a little less than similar products in local stores. The two pens together, plus shipping costs, totaled about $200.00. Fencing was going to be about $2500.00. So this was a good choice for a quick fix. And the seller shipped on time as promised. Also, I'm a 53 year old woman (with arthritis) and I was able to unpackage and set this up by myself. All in all, I'm very happy, and I've recommended these to several friends and family members who don't have fences but want their dogs to be able to go outside.

I rarely write comments, but I felt prompted to do this one. First – the positives: 1. It is well constructed 2. It is sturdy 3. It is very easy to assemble 4. It arrived on time 5. It looks like something that would last 6. It seems to be stable on the floor, given proper shaping 7. Being that it comes in segments, it can be handled by one person to assemble or disassemble (or after one or the other – move) Now the negatives: 1. The gate:!!!!! a. It is only 12” wide, and if the owner of the dog is a big person – there would be no way to get in or out of the pen (which you’d need to do to clean it, adjust the pillows, and do anything that needs to be done in the dog’s pen). It is hugely miscalculated (and no – I am not the one who cannot get in – but having to go in sideways and watch every step is a problem) b. TO compound that problem there is about 7”+ of a threshold that you (going sideways) and your dog would need to negotiate over!!! If you are the one like I am – to buy the pen to rehab my dog after TPLO surgery (and I have a Samoyed who is 75 lbs) – you are embarking upon a very difficult, and dangerous task. You would need to go in, sideways, in your socks (if you, like I do, have 2 dog pillows in the pen for the dog to rest on), hook the dog on the leash and put the sling underneath – and then – (ha, ha!) maneuver to get the dog out of the pen, with you following, leaning forward, sideways, and maintaining the tension on the leash in one hand and sling in the other, to get the dog over the hurdle (i.e. threshold) and not have the dog get hurt (by stumbling or hitting the threshold) and making sure you are safely over, sideways. Simply – the whole pen is great, but the gate is ill-conceived and needs to be changed by 1) making it wider and 2) having no threshold or having 1-2” at the max for reinforcement. Hope this helps you all – from the people like me looking to get the pen to the manufacturer who should definitely change a design. It’s a good product, it just needs safety adjustments that are desperately lacking now.

I've had this dog pen for almost 10 years, and it continues to be a versatile and sanity-saving tool. I originally bough it to create safe area in my basement for my dogs when we were at work. Later, I created a connection point on two walls to expand the overall are and make more of a permanent location. Adding a doggie door to my basement door (which leads to a fenced in side yard) make a permanent in-and-out dog pen. After Covid, I began working from home, so the pen didn't see much action until I began boarding dogs at my house. Now, in different configurations, it's a safe place for dogs to hang out in my garage while the humans have dinner parties, a barrier to separate diggers from my humble grass backyard, a cordon to keep dogs safely away from power tools, and a temporary small pen for a new puppy. No only has this thing performed well, but I would not hesitate to buy a new one...IF this one showed any signs of needing replacement. (A couple spots of rust where it's been dinged, easily sanded and painted.) Oh, and for anyone worried about the gate size? Yes, it's narrow - it has to fit within one of the panels, after all. When I need a wider gate (for an elderly basset hound, for example), I just undo one of the connector rods and use a whole panel as a gate plus a spring clamp to hold it shut. For the price and quality - it's a no-brainer!

I bought this pen for my Pitbull x Lab x German Shepherd puppy so that he is not in a crate for 12 hours straight when I work 3 days out of the week and to make it easier on my mom who will be at home keeping an eye on him. I do not have him yet so I have not tried it out with him. It came in 2 days earlier, and I have set it up and put my 4 year old Pitbull x Blackmouth Cur in it and I absolutely love it. The size is perfect, my 4 year old is only 45lbs but my new puppy will be rather large and I think it will be a perfect size for him to grow into. I would like to purchase another in the near future and use these on camping trips, a play pen, maybe even a permanent indoor kennel for my 4 year old. Set up was incredibly quick and easy. I love that the pens are long enough to stick into the ground to make it even more durable. Very sturdy, just an all around wonderful product.

Very good sturdy dogs will not knock it over!

This fence was very easy to install. It looks beautiful and really made our little yard area look nice in the RV Park! We also put rebar behind each panel and hammered it into the ground and then attached it to the fence for extra sturdiness. We also painted the rebar black to match. We wanted a bigger area so we bought 3 fence kits and it turned out great! We’ve received lots of compliments and we’re asked where others could gets theirs as well! The fence also arrived 3 days early!! I highly recommend this company and the fence!!! I have attached pictures so you could see how nice it really is!!! The only part I didn’t like about it was the gate. It’s too small for me to fit through, as it’s made for small people. So to remedy this we put a threaded rod through the connecting areas and open the whole panel instead of using the small door. It’s still a perfect fence for our 3 little dogs!!!
