MidWest Homes for Pets Eillo Folding Wooden Outdoor Dog House

Mel: It is big for a small size I bought it for stray cats they’re staying behind the pushes so it’s getting cold out here and I hope they can use it although they haven’t been in it hopefully soon. The top I wanted to add actual roofing later because I don’t want the top roof to get damaged from the rain

EileenT: I purchased this for my cats in their catio enclosure. Its very sturdy, well built and cute! My cats dont use their catio in winter. It folds into itself nicely for storage in the garage in winter time. It has not been exposed to subzero temps and snow so I cannot speak to that, but it has certainly been exposed to heat and rain and it still looks as good as it did when I purchased it 3 years ago.

marlo allevamarlo alleva: This was a great find! My tortoise loves it- the lid opens up so I can check in on him; and best of all- it comes completely assembled, just opens up and locks into place!! I did put peel and stick tiles in the bottom to have an extra barrier to protect the wood floor- and painted the outside to give it a little flair!

CRSCRS: My dog loves to be outside in the cold and I wanted him to have a warm place to go when he refuses to come inside. Decided on this house because no tools were needed. It just folds open, so I didn’t need to assemble anything. My husband insulated it and used a shower curtain liner to make a dog door to help keep the wind out. He said the floor was ‘cheap’ because there is nothing to support underneath it (I’d just put bricks under it if I felt it were starting to sag. Time will tell because we’ve only had this dog house for a few weeks.) The dog I got it for is about 50 lbs., and I ordered the XL house so he has room to turn around and move into the corner to get away from the cold/door. I also ordered him a heated dog bed from Amazon (K and H is the manufacturer), but he was happy laying on blankets inside before the dog bed arrived. The top flips open so it’s easy to put a bed or blankets inside, and the house is really cute. I’m sure there are better quality dog houses out there, but for the price I’m very happy with this house and so is my dog. I tried adding some pictures to show the insulation, dog door and bed. I wouldn’t leave my dog in this house,...

Kate J. Hampton: I bought this kennel for a stray cat so he's obviously not heavy but the bottom has gone through numerous times, ive had to fix it in place.
It is in no way weatherproof, ive only had it 2 months and already there is black mould on the front and inside, it's a good idea just not practical

Florian: Very good value for money, much less than an equivalent in a normal shop. Keeps what it promises.
Only negative is that a small crack remains at the fold, which makes it easy to assemble, but also allows cold air in from both sides.

CJCJ: I purchased the small size Eillo folding wood pet house for outdoor feral cats. It appears sizable for several cats, if they want to be in the pet house together.

Pros: Very easy to assemble. Just fold out the sides, drop the bottom, and close the lid! Added feature is leveling feet for uneven surfaces. The unit is attractive and has a pleasant cedar fragrance, cute design, and sizable entry. The roof hinge system allows the top to swing open ~270 degrees for easy access/cleaning.

Cons: The unit is not insulated and the wood is thin. Gaps at the bottom of the walls where they meet the floor will be "breezy". Although the finish is an attractive grey with white trim and sun motif, it is minimal and this will deteriorate outdoors in probably a season (depending on if the unit is protected or not).

Suggestions:
1. Insulate the unit for cold weather use. I used Pink Panther 1/2" rigid insulation on the bottom and lined the interior walls with double sided, reflective bubble type sheets. The rigid insulation was easily cut with a box cutter, while the reflective bubble type, flexible sheet was cut using scissors. Duck Tape sealed the seams. Any soft bedding (old...

linda: Facile est assemblé ,je l'ai verni en dehors ou cas ou que un chat viendrait sur mon patio uriner dessus car celà avait déja arrivé avec une autre maison il a fallu que je la mettre au vidange car elle était faite en matériel, une chose qui n'est pas bien fait c'est la porte au-dessus de la maison car quand elle reste ouverte pour nettoyer , elle tient seulement sur deux petites pentures et le porte est lourde et quand vous essayez de la renforcer les morceaux autour de la maison en dedans en haut n'est pas du bois ,il faut changer celà et il va falloir mettre une penture par en dedans tout le long de la porte et de mettre quelque chose pour quelle reste ouverte aussi et j'ai ajouté une planche au fond pour plus de chaleur et aussi le dedans de la porte est en carton il va falloir changer ça aussi par une feuille mince de bois en cèdre ou de bois vert pour pas avoir de moississure ,regardé bien car j'en ai vu une autre qui est tout en bois et qui a tout ce que j'ai changé ,je ne la recommande pas , mais regardé bien car il y en a une de bonne
