Overview
This PETMAKER puppy playpen is a foldable metal exercise enclosure made of eight 24 by 24 inch panels that lock into an octagon, with a gate panel and dual latch closure for dogs, cats, or small animals.
The panels fold flat for storage or travel, and the enclosure works indoors or outside. Amazon's spec sheet lists the manufacturer as DTX International (also referenced as Pet Trex), even though the title and brand field both say PETMAKER. Assembly is required before first use.

Performance notes
Eight hinged 24 by 24 inch panels lock together into an octagonal shape, with one panel serving as a gate secured by dual latches. The metal frame folds down for storage or transport once the pins are released. At roughly 14 lb, it's light enough for one person to move, but assembly is required out of the box.
