| Does anybody have this ex-pen? I have a superyard ex-pen, but I really want one with a door so he can come and go when he wants to. I'm thinking about selling it on craigslist or something and buying this one. It has really good reviews on amazon and this site is the cheapest I found it. It really is a good price for an ex-pen if it's good quality. Wondering if anybody else has this one? Some have complained of climbing but Capone isn't a climber. IRIS USA, Inc. - Plastic Indoor/Outdoor Pet Pen in White Thanks for any advice or opinions.

| Looks like a great idea for small or young furbabies. But, not tall enough to contain those furbabies that are climbers... Or, even jumpers for that matter. |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I love it, if I ever get another puppy, I would love to have this. Hubby made one for Joey, and it cost over $100 to make, someone borrowed it and moved away, so I've been keeping my eye open, just in case. By the way, Joanne Fabrics sells extra wide thick vinyl fabric that would make great flooring for this. For climbers, we found that the fabric screening that home improvement stores sell, works really well. There are some reviews on the site you linked, one breeder hooked several up together. http://powerreviews.s3.amazonaws.com...84348_full.jpg Also some people say that as the puppy get older you can just use a couple of the walls for gates to block off rooms.

| I'm going to hold on to the one I have and try this one because it has a door, I really want a door and the price is right. If I stop using the one I have I will sell it or give it away.

| I have several of these i can put 2 or 3 together when i have a litter & they clean easy and store when not in use, I only have 1 climber and he can escape anything should have named him Houdini or magic but they are great little pens i usually sell 1 when i let a puppy go

| Good to know, just wish I would have found this one first! I'm not a big fan of the popular Superyard only because it's hard to move around and it doesn't have a door.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Joanne's Fabric store has large bolts of vinyl fabric that is bonded. It's really wide, I think around 54 inches, and they have weekly 40% off coupons, so you can get it for a pretty good price. It's much thicker than the material used on a vinyl tablecloth. When my husband made ours, he stapled the fabric to some type of lightweight board, but you wouldn't have to do that, it's really thick.
