Zippity Portable Puppy Slatted Fence, Cedar Vinyl DIY Freestanding Kit

These have been wonderful. I have 2 blind senior chihuahuas who get lost in the backyard, even on leashes. My mom and I are disabled so walking with them was hard on us, too. We got these to mark their pathway straight from the back door across the cement patio into a section of cleared out garden bed that Mom named "The Chihuahua Potty Pit." These freestanding fences are balanced and stable enough that my larger dogs cannot knock them over, but lightweight enough that it is easy for me to move one to open like a gate for larger dogs to pass and go out into the yard to run and do their business. When storms roll through, the wind doesn't knock these over. On one occasion, one fence was knocked over by a patio chair that the 45mph gusts of wind took for a ride across the patio. Fairly easy assembly, too. requires some tools, though.

Very easy to assemble and looks great around our pool. Keeps our little dog out of the pool, yet it is easy to step over. No need to put holes in the concrete and we can quicly remove them if have a poolside or backyard gathering. We purchased 4 sets, all are connected to make one long fence. Looks great, and so far has not tipped over on a windy day. We were previously using those metal pet playpens to fence off our pool, but they began to rust and the rain washed the rust all over our concrete. We will probably purchase a few more so we can rearrange differently in the future, but for now we are very happy with our purchase.

Visually these fences are so beautiful. They made our backyard look so nice but that's not why we purchased them. It was purchased for our puppy and to keep him in an enclosed area. Our puppy is only 6 lbs and was able to move and knock over one panel. They were to be returned. Now taking them apart and putting them back in their boxes are such a pain.

Wonderful fence alternative for the pool. Easy to assemble and set up.

It's easy to put together. Does what I need it to do. Wish it was a bit higher though.

This product looks nice and is fairly well constructed. The main problem I’ve noticed is stability in outdoor use. The manual indicates that the included silicon pads are for indoor use. But without the pads the fence sections tend to wobble—even on a concrete surface. Optional rubber feet or some type of self leveling or adjustable foot would be helpful but none are included or optional. Perhaps the included silicon pads would work outside but the manual seems to discourage this. The wobbly nature of the fence section is complicated further by the fact that they are unstable in even a light wind. We use our fence to block the shallow end of a pool to keep our dog from constantly swimming. But the fence keeps falling into the pool. It’s light weight design is handy for moving the fence but even a 15 mph breeze will knock it over. And the fence U-links don’t seem to add stability. Rather they cause multiple section to topple together. Needless to say, the fence spends more time swimming that the dog. This brings me to a second criticism. The website suggests that the fence should only be used with small dogs. Yet the advertising material and the Amazon page itself depict what appears to be a large Lab seated behind the fence. Clearly, that constitutes a large dog and gives the impression that the fence can be used with larger breeds. It’s a cute picture but I’m afraid it’s somewhat misleading or at least inconsistent. One last point. Although assembling the fence is straightforward, the pickets required quite a bit or force to insert into the fence assembly. Yet the manual indicates that assembly requires no force and even notes that force should not be used. Perhaps that language should be changed or the pickets redesigned.

These fences look great. They are made very sturdy and Customer Service is wonderful. We love these fences

Purchased this for a safety barrier fence for our outdoor patio potty spot for our small Yorkies, works perfectly. It was quick and easy to assemble. It is sturdy but lightweight. Features interlocking capabilities with a simple U hook application. Features stabilizer braces which allow the fence to be freestanding.

It is a very good looking fence perfect for my little dog
