I have 3 wire crates and wouldn't want it any other way. They fold down with ease & set up in a snap, well except one of them because it is an old crate. lol They are very sturdy & easy to clean. They are portable as well. One of them even has double doors (door at the end and one on the side) Someday I will add a soft sided crate to my crate family for when Kaige competes in agility.
