Leaving a dog home alone, encaged, is a stressful and unpleasant necessity for many dog owners. Often this circumstance leads to guilt for the owner, and potentially distress for the dog. The Lucidium Dog Pen offers an alternative. The enclosure is much larger than a typical crate, and has 360 degree views. The pleasing aesthetic will lead to more favorable placement in the heart of the home, perhaps by a sliding glass door, so dogs have an interesting and unobstructed view, while they enjoy the space to move around and stretch out. The generous space inside the pen may need to be cleaned, or arranged at times. The walk-through door provides easy access, which is especially beneficial for older pet owners, or pet owners with health challenges. The Lucidium pen is a sturdy home furnishing designed for small to medium dogs weighing up to 40 lbs.

Worth It! Gorgeous, High Quality and Easy to Assemble
I am so pleased with this pen! I have had my rabbit's pen in the most frequently visible and central location in the house. This pen is so much nicer to look at. I consider it a piece of furniture, not a pen.This pen is great for my rabbit. She gets more space than a standard exercise pen because she can't move it. In the "before" picture, you can see I had to use cable ties to secure lengths of PVC pipe to the pen and place hand weights to keep her from pushing the pen into a new shape several times a day. She also won't jump over it. Most rabbits don't do a straight jump out of a pen. They typically jump into a corner, get front and hind paw holds on the wire and then climb over. With this pen, there's no way for a rabbit to get a "pawhold." Since the walls of the pen are solid, hay, etc. stay in the pen and don't end up on the floor outside the pen. The 27" makes it easier to reach into than the standard 30" wire pen.The pen is very high quality. I had thought that slits had been cut in the aluminum tubing for the acrylic panels. No, the tracks where the panels go are part of the tube. The tolerances for the holes to secure the panels to the pipe fittings were spot on. Any of the times I thought there was a tolerance problem getting the bolt through, it was because I didn't have the panel fully seated or square.I've assembled a lot of RTA and IKEA furniture. I found the assembly easy and the instructions clear. It did take me about an hour.

LOVE IT!
LOVE IT!! I wish I could say that I spent less than I actually did... but in the end, I really love the product. I give the product 5 stars for aesthetics but 3 stars for actual quality. The assembly wasn’t difficult at all, took less than an hour. A lot of the time is spent tediously taking off the packaging and little stickers. It could be a little taller and the sides could be harder. If you have a tall/large dog and he/she tends to get out, I don’t recommend this product. I have a 20lb roughly 13inch tall Lhasa Apso and he can get his paws on top of the bar pretty easy. As another reviewer mentioned the sides are flimsy. I wouldn’t say that it’s “flimsy” but it’s definitely a softer plastic but it’s durable enough to hold especially after you install with the bars and gain stability from fitting all the parts. Keep in mind that a clear product will not stay “clear” with a furbaby because of their little paws, tongue, nose, etc and it needs occasional cleaning for maintenance.

Great Product
I have an unusually long corgi and wanted to buy a dog pen that will fit her body structure since the typical kennel size doesn't work well for corgis. After much consideration, we decided to give this dog pen a shot. The price is definitely high! However, I'm willing to spend more money for the comfort of my dog. Plus, I think of it has preventive care; it's much better for her back/spine in the long-run.Change isn't easy, even on dogs. So it took a while for our dog to warm up to the pen. During the first few days, she would whine and even howl after we left. She would jump on it and although she's long, she couldn't flip the pen over or anything like that. She's 30 lbs and she was able to move the whole pen a little bit, but the weight of the pen hasn't been an issue for us. However, I think if you have a bigger dog, you might want to consider getting the higher/taller pen.Overall, I'm satisfied with this purchase. She's able to sleep in different positions and move around, even if it's still limited due to our smaller condo. I really do think it makes a difference. The seller also provides the option to expand your pen so once we get a bigger house, we might order extra walls!

beautiful, functional,can clearly see my pet, could be a bit taller, difficult assembly
I love that the dog can see you and you can see the dog and seems like my puppy did not feel enclosed, no wining to get out or anything. Just the right height for a small dog ( Frenchie) that cant jump out, too short for a taller dog. My daughters shiba inu does not jump out shes probably about 18 -20 in height but I think she could if she really wanted or was left alone in it. I did not like the door closure - its turning a thin metal latch into a thin slot in the bar so its easy to miss and not get latched on both top and bottom. The assembly for one person very hard because of needing complete assembly - installing the clear panels with top and bottom bars and each bracket that hold them together, actually put it together wrong and had to go back and re-do. I took me about 4 hours to figure it out...but then I'm horrible at assembling things. I have porcelain floors and it stays put although I would think they would add some rubber pads to bottom of bars somehow would be an improvement however I have no problem of the dog scooting it around it is heavy enough to stay put even with puppy jumping or standing up on the side walls. The acrylic walls are thinner than the door and they do flex when you wipe them clean or the dogs jumps at them , they could be a bit thicker for the price that was a bit of a disappointment. I would have to recommend to the manufacturer a better latching system, thicker walls and easier assembly. Once assembled it not a quick thing to disassemble. I had first ordered the richell pen but it got sent back because you cant see the dog hardly at all and it was too enclosed. Overall I do not regret getting it and love the pen and this would be good for someone with puppies to really see well what's going on.

So clear/ sturdy!
Wonderful pen. Bought for my ferrets. Bought 2 to have a big enough roam room for them. Only problem was one of the boxes had parts missing. Called the number they provide not expecting someone to pick up, it was late at night, to my surprise they did and they apologized and said they would send the missing parts priority mail. Will update speediness of this. The one I put together was so easy to put together. It looks amazing! So clear!! One of my animals has already walked into it lol. So glad I bought this!! Highly highly recommend!!
