Amazon Basics Foldable Octagonal Metal Exercise Dog Playpen – Indoor/Ou, , Blacktdoor, No Door, Small (8 Panels, 24 x 30), Easy to assemble, store, and customize, 30″ – Small, Black

Best ones I have tried in 18 years
These are absolutely perfect for a litter of puppies. They are the perfect weight because the puppies can’t move them around, but they are lighter weight than some of the other ones are and are easy for me to move them around. The door allows me to step through and also to section them off. With two pens put together I can move them into one area and close the door so they can’t get in there with me while I clean, then I open it up and let them back into the other area. In one side, I put bedding and their water bowl and toys and then the other side I have puppy pads where they learn to potty away from where they sleep, and it helps to jumpstart the housebreaking process in doing this. My puppies never go potty in any other area by the time they are 4 1/2 weeks old. I love these exercise pens and literally could not do without them. Very good quality and value for money. You will not regret buying these for your litter of puppies.

Works exactly as I need it to
I purchased a Used-like new item and it was exactly as described. No issues as far as quality control. The price is very reasonable compared to the same item at larger chain stores. And of course , the versatility of this is unmatched. I have this set up every night for my nine week old puppy to sleep in with an elevated bed inside. I generally crate train my dogs right from the beginning for bed time but am switching tactics to train to sleep in “their bed” instead of starting in an enclosed crate and working to an open door crate. My puppy is calmer when enclosed in this playpen then he was in his 48 inch crate. My other dog has an open crate with her comfy bed she sleeps in. I have also used this attached to a 36inch double door crate to put both my 2 yr old red nose pit and 9 wk old rottie in while I was running errands. Lastly this has also been used as a travel playpen at a family reunion (will update pics of that later). This has most definitely proved it’s worth in each instance. I do not think this could be collapsed WITH extra reinforcements in each of these scenarios. When used with the elevated bed I have zip ties added on the sides where the feet for the elevated bed are. So the playpen is secured to the bed at the very bottom. This keeps the playpen from being able to be moved/caved in/etc while set up like this. When attached to the 36inch crate I have zip ties on 4 points where the crate and playpen connect to eachother. I also have the metal clips on there too but it seemed sturdier with the zip ties. The plastic clips that come with it for the top in my opinion are useless on their own. Hence the 4 instead of 5 stars. They constantly pop off at the slightest movement and become a hazard to the dog inside. Especially a teething puppy. To remedy this I also have these zip tied to the top. When used outside as a travel playpen I make sure it is strategically staked to the ground and the included metal clips to attach this to a crate becomes a back up door closure as well. Judging from some of the reviews I believe a bunch of people expected this to be like the heavy plastic kid play yards and were not expecting to take a few extra steps to think about how to reinforce it… take the extra time and make sure it is secure to make sure your dog is safe. Is it a portable tall thin enclosure. Of course on its own it is a bit flimsy. When used responsibly it is a great product and very simple to use. I am glad I bought this for sure. I am planning on buying another one so I can take both of my dogs on our last vacation of the summer and let them have some room to play without being on leads. It is not too heavy considering it’s metal…and looks decent. Yes it’s a bit bulky when set up. But it’s fine..lol…for reference I bought the 59×48. Or 48x48x48. I don’t believe in starting small and buying bigger as the dog gets bigger. They start out with ginormous stuff and grow into it so they know from the beginning it’s theirs.

Height is very good for our golden retriever. It is also spacious that he could move around with his bed inside. Just need to place it in a corner and put some weights on the side to keep it sturdy. But if to be placed outside, it comes with a metal pegs to keep in place. For the opening. can easily open and close it too.
