"I harbor no delusions that it will hold up over the long haul, but this is a good lightweight, inexpensive addition to my training yard. Installation was quick, and the height adjusts easily so I can switch between training my 50-lb. Aussie shepherd mix and my 5-lb. Chihuahua mix with little effort."

β€” Jennifer

"We used this twice before the stake broke off on one leg. It’s not sturdy and poorly made. I would not purchase again and would probably not purchase other items made by this brand."

Bottom Line

Buy it if you need a budget-friendly, portable hurricane for light use; avoid if you have a larger or more active dog.
