The biggest complaint about this dog house seems to be that it is difficult to snap the pieces together. If it is not snapped together properly, it will fall apart or blow down. Those who were able to assemble it properly felt that it was nice and sturdy once completed.
One issue commonly mentioned by owners is that because it is so lightweight, it can easily blow away in a storm if it is not staked down. Many owners either staked it to the ground or attached it to a pallet in order to both weigh it down and raise it off the ground. Another issue is its lack of insulation, but many owners felt that it was fine with the addition of a few blankets on the ground or a scrap of carpeting.
There is a small gutter or channel around the bottom of the interior to catch any rainwater, but the channel does not drain anywhere. In order to empty the channel, you have to pick the dog house up and turn it on its side. Owners did not find this to be very convenient, especially in light of the fact that they had to stake it down to the ground in order to keep it from blowing away.
Most owners gave the Suncast DH350 four stars for its durable construction at a reasonable price. It appears to be a good basic choice for pet owners who are looking for a very low cost dog house.
