I have both, the wire kind and this kind. I use the plastic one more. For one thing you can remove panels easily and make it smaller if you need to. I am just using 4 panels right now. The wire one I bought is taller and has a door, which is nice, but sometimes it's quicker to just bend over the side on the shorter one. I like them both, so it's just a matter of preference. If you are carrying it around places, the wire might be easier. |
