PAPIHO 86.6" Large Double Dog Crate Furniture Review

Intro

I'm The Pet Dude, and I spend a lot of time sizing gear to real-life homes. The PAPIHO 86.6" Large Double Dog Crate Furniture aims to be a hybrid: a heavy-duty metal-and-wood crate that doubles as a TV stand or side table while giving you two kennel spaces (or one large room if you remove the divider). The listing packs a lot into one product: engineered wood, a thickened metal frame, adjustable stainless steel raised feeders, a divider, and six fabric drawers for storage. I dug through the product details and owner feedback so you can quickly decide whether this is the functional furniture-style crate that fits your dogs and your living room.

What it is / first look

On paper this is a 2-in-1 furniture-style dog crate that can be configured as one large kennel or two separate rooms. The listing gives both interior and overall measurements so you can size it against your dog(s) and your space:

• Interior Dimensions (listed): 84 x 25.4 x 27.7 inch
• Overall / Product Dimensions (listed): 86.6 x 27.4 x 37.8 inches

The manufacturer lists the materials as Engineered Wood and Metal, and the product copy calls out an upgraded thickened metal frame and high-quality P2 particle board. Included components listed are the bowl, divider, and drawers. The crate is marked for indoor use and is described in the listing as chew-resistant, with adjustable stainless steel raised feeder bowls and six fabric drawers on the front for storage.

From the images and the listing's default color value, the available finish is brown. I list colors below in the practical information section.

In daily use

This product is sold as furniture-first crate-second. The listing repeatedly positions it as usable as a TV stand, side table or display stand while also functioning as a kennel. Here are the concrete use notes you should consider when imagining it inside your home:

Storage & multi-use surface

The crate offers a large desktop surface and 6 fabric drawers for stashing leashes, toys, treats, or household items. That desktop is one of the core selling points—if you want a crate that hides in plain sight as part of your living room furniture, that’s exactly the role PAPIHO pitches.

Feeding & bowls

The listing says the furniture-style cage is equipped with two adjustable bowl holders and four 7.5" stainless steel dog food bowls (the copy also calls them adjustable stainless steel raised feeder bowls). The height of the bowl holders is adjustable according to dog size, which the listing frames as beneficial for a dog’s cervical spine.

Two rooms or one big room

PAPIHO ships the crate with a metal divider so you can create two rooms—listing copy says it can comfortably accommodate two medium sized dogs or four small dogs. If you have very large dogs, the listing notes you can remove the iron fence in the middle so the two rooms merge into one larger space.

Assembly & logistics

The listing promises the product is optimized for installation with pre-assembled parts. From owner feedback I reviewed, expect to set aside time: people report assembly taking roughly three hours and that the unit ships in two large boxes. Instructions were described by owners as present but sparse—pictures that sometimes lack orientation detail—so plan for a careful, step-by-step assembly and possibly a helper for aligning panels.

Materials & build quality

The listing is specific about the main materials: Engineered Wood and Metal. A product bullet calls out the use of high-quality P2 particle board as the wood substrate and an upgraded thickened metal frame for structural parts. The marketing also stresses the product is "chewy resistant" and "much stronger than fine wire cages," even going so far in one bullet to call it an "indestructible large dog crate cage."

Included accessory details from the listing that affect perceived quality:

• Adjustable bowl holders with four 7.5" stainless steel bowls included (raised feeder style).
• 6 fabric, foldable drawer organizers built into the design.
• Divider and drawer hardware included in the package contents.

Owner feedback I reviewed reinforces the listing's construction claims: several owners called the furniture "very functional" and "super well made," noting good packing and reinforcement in shipping. A typical positive note: the finished piece felt sturdy and attractive in the home. However, not every detail was perfect—one owner reported receiving a dented metal bar for the divider and a different owner mentioned the assembled unit can "shake a little," prompting them to plan anti-tip mounting. Those are practical, real-world build notes: the crate's materials and factory finish look good overall, but you should expect a careful inspection on arrival and potentially minor touch-ups or anchoring once it's in place.

Safety considerations

Safety is top of mind for furniture crates because they sit in living spaces and interact with curious dogs and household activity. Here are the safety-relevant, evidence-backed points from the listing and owner reports:

• The listing marks the crate for indoor use specifically, so plan placement away from wet, outdoor exposure.
• The product copy calls the unit "chewy resistant." That is a manufacturer claim and owners reported the frame and boards feel reinforced, but the listing does not provide laboratory chew-proof testing data—so treat the chew-resistant claim as a marketing attribute rather than a guarantee against determined chewers.
• Adjustable raised feeder bowls are stainless steel per the listing, which is a positive for hygiene and chew resistance for the bowl hardware itself.
• Owner feedback noted the crate can "shake a little," and one owner planned anti-tip mounts. Anchoring or anti-tip hardware is something I recommend planning for, particularly if you have large, rambunctious dogs or place heavy items on top of the desktop surface.
• One owner reported a dented metal bar for the divider on arrival. Inspect any crate for damaged metal or sharp edges before letting your dog use it; the listing states the brand offers customer service and says they will respond within 24 hours for support.

Final safety note: Always measure your dog against the interior dimensions (84 x 25.4 x 27.7 inch) before buying. The listing provides these measurements so you can ensure a comfortable standing and turning radius for your dog's breed and life stage.

Who this is for / who should skip

Based strictly on the listing and owner feedback, here's how I break down the fit by dog size and household use:

Best fit — multi-dog homes, living-room furniture seekers

• If you want a crate that visually blends into your living room and provides storage, this is one of the more furniture-forward options at this size. The large desktop and six fabric drawers make it a functional piece for people who want to hide gear behind doors.
• The listing and owners note it works well for two medium dogs or four small dogs. Owners also reported it is "big enough" for combinations like an XL plus a medium, so mixed-size multi-dog households are a core audience.

Who should be cautious or skip

• If your dog is a very heavy chewer or escape artist, keep in mind the listing's "chewy resistant" claim is manufacturer language; there is no independent chew-test data on the page. If the chewer has destroyed metal crates in the past, you may want a dedicated heavy-duty steel kennel with verified chew resistance.
• Outdoor use is not recommended—the listing lists the crate for indoor use only.
• If you need a crate that arrives entirely pre-assembled or you don’t have time for a long assembly process, this model may frustrate you. Expect a multi-hour assembly and two large boxes for delivery.

Verdict

If you want the look of furniture and the function of a double kennel, the PAPIHO 86.6" Large Double Dog Crate Furniture is a compelling option. The listing combines an upgraded thickened metal frame with engineered wood (P2 particle board), adjustable stainless steel raised feeders, and six fabric drawers for storage. Owner feedback I reviewed praises the overall finish and sturdiness once assembled, but also flags a couple of practical points: assembly takes time, the instructions are minimal, and some buyers recommend anchoring to prevent shaking.

Bottom line: this is a strong choice for indoor multi-dog households who value furniture-style design, storage, and built-in feeders—provided you plan for a careful, time-consuming assembly and do a post-build safety check for dents and stability.

Check before you buy

• Measure your dog(s) against the listed interior dimensions: 84 x 25.4 x 27.7 inch.
• Plan for assembly time—owners report about three hours and two large boxes on delivery.
• Inspect metal parts on arrival for dents or sharp edges; the listing states PAPIHO offers customer support and will respond within 24 hours.
• Decide if you will anchor the unit—some owners said it can "shake a little" and they planned anti-tip mounting.
• Remember this is labeled for indoor use only.

Available colors (from the listing):

• brown

Overall, this crate furniture is a practical blend of style and kennel function with a few assembly and anchoring caveats. If that matches what you're after, it’s worth considering.
