Review on 🐶 SMONTER Heavy Duty Dog Crate - Sturdy Metal Pet Kennel Playpen with Dual Escape-Proof Lock, Large Dogs Cage on Wheels by Kristy Powers

So my 40 pound pooch has separation anxiety so after chewing my way through a decent wire box and a homemade wooden crate I decided it was time to upgrade to a heavier stand -upgrade by option. The box arrived with loose screws on the frame edges, requiring a set of sockets and a wobble link extension to tighten to keep the sides from dangling. Not too much of a problem, but still a pain in the butt. The biggest problem, however, is that the square steel bars of the hollow frame are actually quite brittle. My dog bit through nearly three bars on the door within ten minutes of being locked in the cage, cutting his mouth open. The paint (powder coat?) on the frame is peeling off where he chewed it and I'm concerned he's swallowing flakes of paint. It can open the latches when not secured with one of the included carabiners - how I don't know, but it did. Overall probably not recommended due to less durable construction materials and weak latches.
