Great Offer Stock had the best price on the Midwest crate I wanted for my dog. who had both bent and escaped from the crate I got at Walmart. I wanted something more secure. I have no complaint with the price or shipping speed from Great Offer Stock...they were great! The crate was a little 'snarled' in the box and took two people to get the pieces unhooked from each other, but was easy to set up once that happened.
The door is indeed removable which is nice. However, it requires VERY exact placement of the 3 'hinges' in order to get it back on! I wish that part wasn't so tedious. Though sturdy and seemingly secure, my 'escape artist' dog finally figured out that she could lift up on the hinge side of the door and it would pop off! SOOOO, I would highly recommend the door be fortified with trigger clips on both the hinge side and the hook side before leaving your dog unsupervised! There are actually 3 doors on the crate and my pooch has yet to figure that out, but given enough time, I'm sure she will! Bottom line: for best security, it would take 4 clips per door x 3 doors = 12 clips! If you have a Houdini dog, know before you buy! The crate is sturdy and well made but is NOT escape proof.
