Review on Enhanced SEO: TRIXIE Natura Classic Outdoor Dog House with Weatherproof Finish and Elevated Floor by Karen Murray

It's handsome, beautifully designed, easy to assemble, comes with all the necessary parts and has pre-drilled holes for your convenience. Materials seem decent, bolts, screws, hinges. The top is covered with some kind of gravel from which a few small pieces may fall off at first. The wood itself leaves a lot to be desired, it is quite thin and brittle. There is a slight damage to one of the side edges as the cover was scratched. The sides should be slightly square so that the lid fits properly when closed. One of the plastic legs broke when the wood split where it was screwed in because I was carrying it instead of lifting it. It can be easily screwed back on in another position where the wood doesn't split. It gets one star for the material, but honestly I'm not sure I could have done better for less. Although it was supposed to be weatherproof, I added another coat of Rust-Oleum 207008 Marine Spar Varnish 1-quart to each piece before assembling it as it will be exposed to rain. If you choose to do this, make sure you do it in a well-ventilated area and give yourself extra time to dry and air out before allowing your pets to use it. I haven't received the TRIXIE Pet Products Large Flat Roof Plastic Kennel Door, but we'll see when the rainy season starts. As a kennel I would be a bit skeptical about using it for a dog over 50lbs. I think it's better to listen to other reviews if you have a big dog or a dog that likes to destroy things. It is ideal as a waste container. It can hold a Nature's Miracle High Wall Cat Litter and Litter Genie Plus Cat Litter Disposal System with Odorless Bucket System, Silver with free space. The hinges seem to work well with frequent lifting, locking in place with a faint click (both hinges engage) and unlocking easily with a slight tug. For those of you with large (or many) cats, Home Depot's plastic tub (similar to the 26 x 20 x 6-inch Maccourt At2606) fits in, but doesn't have room for anything else.
