Good door but with some problems.

** We bought Chubbykat size. This door is very easy to install and looks beautiful on the window. However, he has his own problems. Pros - easy installation, beautiful appearance, fine finish (mostly). Cons - I don't like the plastic lid. We bought the Chubbykat version, hard plastic lid. We had a hard time training our little dog with him because when he tried to pull back the plastic door caught him and the pain returned causing him to fear it. Since then we have had to remove the valve and…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Repair

The cat flap is great. Beautiful device with a beautiful design. The one I bought was "used like new" because I don't care if the box is damaged as long as the product is OK AND ALL THE PARTS ARE. The one that was sent was supposed to be a sealant to seal the cat door and window joint. That didn't happen. I don't know when it was out of the box but I figured customer service would supply the missing part with no problem. After all, you don't have to return the damaged box of Revain otherwise…

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • A few little things

I am so disappointed. A very good idea, but very poorly implemented.

Looks good and easy to install but videos and pictures are misleading. First, there is no sliding door over the cat door to latch and protect it from the elements. There are fluffy things around the door that stick to the edges, forcing it to stay open. There is no magnet on the bottom to close it between uses. This way it stays open every time the cat gets in or out. There's a red lock downstairs and it broke the first time I tried it, so now I have no way of locking it at all. I don't have a…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • slim

Works but not great

If you have half-stupid cats, that's pretty good. I also have a cat with CH (disability) and he can use it! Likes: • Feels strong enough • I have 3 cats. All sorted out in 1 day to 3 weeks • Cats are happy and able to go outside (first of all) • Doesn't look out the window • Chubby cat Size is perfect for my cats (weight ranges from 9 to 12 pounds). Dislikes: • Weather protection isn't enough and you need to buy more. Mine also came with a black weather shield, while white would have made more…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • There are some nuances

This is a great product! Brilliant!

I really like this door. A pet door has never been easier. I have 2 Shih Tzu dogs that this works great on. My windows are very low on the inside but taller on the outside due to the height of the foundation. I have steps outside and a protective rubber mat on the inside windowsill that I recommend for dogs. I set up in minutes. It just pops out after you loosen the locks, then lower the window and you're done. The easiest setup I've ever experienced! Worth every penny! This solved my problem…

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Reliability

But who likes to go out in the fresh air?

We have two cats who live mostly indoors but occasionally like to get some fresh air and direct sun. We recently built a glass-enclosed porch in the back of our house and wanted to move her litter box to the porch from a not-so-convenient spot in our main bathroom, but she needs 24-hour access to the litter box. I did a lot of research online and after purchasing a dog door from this company I already knew I liked their products and the item had good reviews here and elsewhere on the internet…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Working speed

And we did it! We have a cation!

2020 UPDATE: we still have this insert and it is an integral part of our window. We now have a fully screened patio (with a pet/trampoline screen) for cats to get in and out of, and we've also added two cats. We recommend. We also added a door insert to our sliding patio door, but we left it in so the cats have multiple options for getting in and out of the patio in case one of them fails, or just to keep the peace between them . .Wow what a project it was to install this cat door casement! But

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old
