New World Pet Products B550 24 Reviews Summary

Construction and Design

Pros:

• "This is a sturdy product and easily folds for storage or to move around other areas of the home."
• "It's constructed well and came out of the box ready to go."
• "The materials used for this playpen are quality. It is made of a lightweight and sturdy metal."
• "The sturdy black metal construction ensures durability."
• "Very well made! 👍🏼👍🏼"
• "The quality is far beyond what I expected for the price."
• "It’s well made and is useful."

Cons:

• "It's flimsy, but the price was good."
• "However, it is very flimsy. It’s easily moved and scratches the floor."
• "Unfortunately it’s flimsy and when he jumped on a panel, his paw got caught in the folds of the panels."
• "Poor construction, poor design, and an overall DANGEROUS product."
• "Many of the welds all over this ex pen have very small razor sharp points. I cut my hand the first time I picked it up."
• "The things meant to attach the panels together were plastic and broke immediately before I could even assemble the fence."
• "4 stars because a few panels were bent upon arrival, not sure if amazon fault or product defect."

Functionality and Versatility

Pros:

• "Panels are easy to move around and put in different shapes to fit an area."
• "We have used this for play yards for puppies, rabbit mobile pens, gates across doorways, all KINDS of things!"
• "You can disassemble and make it smaller, you can shape it to fit any space."
• "It’s a perfect size, and folds up very easily and stores perfectly in the 'basement' compartment of the RV."
• "The fence can be connected at any two panels allowing user to change the pen size quickly and easily."
• "I use this item to allow my 2 puppies to be outside and enjoy the fresh yard."
• "It does not have to be set up in a circle or square, it can be used as a wall like we’ve done."

Cons:

• "Wish it was a few panels bigger."
• "But then noticed the puppy could just keep pushing the edges b/c the panels didn't keep their shape..."
• "The only thing I wish is we could easily remove and add panels."
• "I do wish the panels could come apart. Maybe just even in 2 big pieces instead of each panel coming apart to make it smaller or to use to block off doorways."
• "I would have preferred the ability to remove each panel and be able to use a 4-panel and other layout configurations."
• "Linear footage is deceptive... I needed 20."
• "The only con: there isn't a way to brace it when using it indoors so if your pet likes to jump up or push against a fence it'll move and fold."

Safety and Security

Pros:

• "It’s a long strip, not a circle. You can use it as a fenced in area, or just create a wall to block off parts of the house."
• "The stakes secured it to the ground nicely and we didn’t need to use any additional force."
• "The ground anchors help keep it secure to the ground so that rabbits cant push under it."
• "The panels are strong enough to lay a piece of wire across the top as protection from a hawk or other large bird."
• "When puppy parents are busy with household tasks, placing our puppy in here with toys, food & water makes her safe & secure: keeps threats away, restricts her from chewing inappropriate or dangerous items."
• "This has kept our new puppy safe and controlled until he’s able to be trusted in our home."
• "It's sturdy and protective, my dogs are kept within where they are meant to."

Cons:

• "It pinches the fingers like the dickens, too, but that's user error."
• "It served its purpose to keep mom enclosed with pups. Definitely NOT for large dogs."
• "It is good but my puppy husky kept biting and bending the cage lol but she tried jumping over the fence so many times and got hurt."
• "This pen is so dangerous!! Due to the poor construction, my puppy’s toe was caught between two panels and she was hanging by her foot."
• "We bought this for our new 8 week old puppy. It was going pretty good until she started to bite the pen. Since then she has gotten her mouth/ nose stuck and we’ve had to bend the bars in order to get her unstuck."
• "A larger dog could easily knock this over. I would not use this unsupervised."
• "Dangerous for puppies, my mastiff got his paw stuck in between the panels twice today."

Portability and Storage

Pros:

• "This playpen came preassembled and was simple to set up."
• "The pen stores nicely in the box it was shipped in."
• "So easy to just unfold the panels, it's all put together, no instructions needed. It's very sturdy, well built."
• "The pen itself is a super easy setup. Even taking it down is super easy."
• "It's really easy to use and handy, and if I need to put it away, it's super easy to fold up and put out of the way."
• "At night, the playpen is folded up and tucked out of the way."
• "It folds up to store easily."

Cons:

• "Only thing I would recommend if you get rid of the box and plan to travel with it, is to get something to secure the panels with, otherwise it rattles."
• "Product works as I intended. However, very disappointing that in under a week it started rusting."
• "It’s sort of easy to fold, only problem is that it doesn’t bend right and sometimes can become unstable when folded wrong."
• "Had this product a little under six months... We have had to use zip ties to try and make the pen functional."
• "But it folds up great to store under the RV and is light enough for one person to handle."
• "This was a great price for this playpen so I just used some zip ties to hold the two ends together without a gap."
• "The second one looked like it was obviously used with chipped paint and rust."

Customer Service and Purchase Experience

Pros:

• "The seller only allowed me to buy two sets, but I needed four sets - of course I got what I needed."
• "Shipped Fast!"
• "Great quality and value! Highly recommend the product!"
• "This thing is amazing! It's so versatile and was worth every penny!"
• "I would buy this again every time... Because it has so many panels it allows us the ability to do both."
• "Bought for our new puppy and it’s absolutely perfect. Moves easy room to room. Size is great."
• "We used this for our pit bull puppy and it kept the dog and cat away from each other."

Cons:

• "Super disappointed."
• "I asked to see if I could get partial refund (as it will still work but was not new as promised) and was put on hold for 20 min before they hung up."
• "The gate arrived damaged (an end panels is bent/warped, so it can't line up properly to close)."
• "So far it has lost two of the metal hinges that connect the folding panels."
• "I am very disappointed in this product. I purchased a previously used item. It was missing 3 of the 8 panels advertised."
• "I don't recommend purchasing this item used."
• "Great, we have two in the house to keep our puppy contained and just ordered 3 more to make a pen in the backyard. Downside is they are heavy and cumbersome to move."
