Pros & Cons
Pros
Purchased for multiple outdoor cats. Would definitely recommend despite the shipping damage. We are happy with our purchase and so is our dog.
The roof panel is pre-hinged to a wooden frame member that becomes the top of the side wall. All you need is a 10mm socket wrench and a phillips screwdriver. It helps to have 2 people for getting the nuts on some of the bolts.
Made of cedar (dove tailed together), easy assembly, shingled roof, covered porch. It has a nice front porch for additional weather protection.
Cons
Extremely flimsy build quality. This product is absolute garbage. Sad people charge so much for inferior * like this.
The packaging is awful, very thin box, thin styrofoam. Ups tracking only indicates one box was shipped. I expect mine to be in the trash heap by the end of the week.
Each slat of wood is (cheaply) stapled to a main header and footer board.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to set up and good quality
Easy to assemble i did it solo in under an hour all parts were there instructions were clear and to the point
If you get it wrong the roof will not close and you might damage the hinges or the wood frame member they are attached to when ... Read More
The inner top plate simply wasnt cut properly andor attached properly to come close to fitting the sides
Price
For the price i think this is a very good deal
There is no way i could have designed or built this at the price point
A few days later it hadnt even close me in yet and i found it for 70 cheaper
Shipping
Finally it showed up as having arrived in town again last night and was finally delivered today
They shipped together both of them were supposedly out for delivery by ups 4 days ago
This seller needs to understand the dangerous journey items make in shipping
I didnt have the shipping damage that most did
Packaging/appearance
To set the record straight the packaging is a joke the styrofoam isnt strong enough and the cardboard was paper thin
The ridiculously thin cardboard box arrived torn in several places with one corner completely exposed
However the packaging could have been a little better
The packaging is a bit marginal for such heavy items and the second box was a bit torn up
