has the problem of sharp edges in the crate been corrected?

NO IT HAS NOT!!! Look at the pictures i have posted a picture of mine with sharp pointy spikes because of poor workmanship and quality control.

Second crate was better. Not perfect. But no sharp edges. A couple of bent pieces but husband was able to bend back.

Not sure which 'sharp edges' you're referring to, so I suppose it has been fixed as I haven't come across any sharp edges. :)

I bought this crate about 2 months ago, today is 7/4/13 I was not aware of sharp edges in the crate nor have I seen any in mine. Hope this helps.

I bought mine about 3 months ago for a Golden Retriever puppy and don't see a problem. The only thing on the cage that appears "sharp" at all might be the little 1/2" metal connectors that connect the sides together. They are positioned along the outside edges and don't appear to be a problem.

I bought one of these 2 years ago and have never noticed any sharp edges. Just bought another one today, so we'll see how that one is on Wednesday.

Yes there is a grating below the pan. I would by a liner sold on Amazon as well or use a towel on the plastic. This crate is much too small for a 55 lb lab. I use it for a 10 lb dog. I would get a bigger size.

So far, no. There has been no such problem. Have you contacted the manufacturer about it? If not, why not?

I am considering buying this ramp and have read most of the reviews before I make my decision. I just read a review dated 2011 that these sharp edges have since been corrected and the once sharp edges are now a sturdy protective plastic.

Hi Peggy - I honestly didn't have an issue with the crate's odor. Perhaps for a short while after unpacking it, but after airing out I can't say the odor was noticeable. For us it was all about the durability and not holding up for more than a few hours. Good news is we were able to return it easily.

Absolutely. My dog did the same thing to the steel and plastic. Don't waste another dime. Buy this crate. Get the big one. I don't have the wheels on mine. He's great in it. Best thing I bought for him.

I didn't have any problems with the fence. It is well crated and even survived a drop from the lift-gate with only damage to one of the fence adjustment clamps - which was promptly replaced.

I had the same problem with an older crate. You will need to tell them whether your door is "old style" (flat across the top and bottom) or "new style" (straight on the sides and arced on the top and bottom).I called them (1 (877) 738-6283) and was directed to Karen Brevard. She was extremely helpful and very nice. Her e-mail is kbrevard@petmate.com. For one of mine, I needed to e-mail a picture to be sure to get the right size.I'm sure she will be able to tell you the correct door to order.

The one I received & have used a lot does not have sharp edges at all. In my case it is just what I wanted & would highly recommend it.

I use an old comforter in it for my Pit Bull to lay on, thinking the wire would catch his toenails. When the blanket is pushed out of the way or being washed, the dog doesn't seem to have an issue just standing in the grate itself. This crate has been great for our needs thus far!

Mine is fine . I bet if you contact Sharp they will give you a software update.

The corners came chipped on ours, but I've banged it off a few things and haven't added any more. Our pastry cutter hasn't added any scratches.

I haven't had any problems with mine. The only edge i had was on the outside and a simple nail file took care of it.

My Great Dane, who is just over a year old, broke this crate at the bottom where it should be the most sturdy... She has severe separation anxiety and we were trying to correct it.. seems we went a little too long!The corners were all zip tied and also throughout the rest of the crate anywhere there was a place where the crate latched together with another piece.. It all depends on how determined the dog is into getting out.. Mine was very...very.It is a pretty decent crate though.. especially for the price!

Yes, the edges are rounded; thus, no sharp edges anywhere on this item. I bought two of them and am very pleased with the purchase. I think you will be pleased if you decide to purchase the item. I have no interest in the company and do not work for them, etc. I'm just trying to answer your question.
