We've had this dog house for my yellow lab for almost 4 years. Very sturdy. It's been in the sun the whole time, but hasn't had any sun rot. The color has modified slightly, but that's all. Other than the slight color change it still looks brand new. She's mostly an outdoor dog, so this house is well used by her. During the winter she stays in it most of the time. There are times when our dog is inside our home but she'll ask to go outside so she can go in her house. We live in cold, snowy mountains--lots of skiing, so we're used to cold weather. Like the other reviewer, we use cedar chips inside--nice. I like the ideas the reviewer gave about modifying the house with foam. I think we might try that this winter to make it even more cozy. The door was frightening to our dog at first, but she got used to it and now she likes it. I like the window that can be removed in the summer. We might put carpet over those during the winter.

This dog house is solid when put together! Easy assembly, strong and durable. I would highly recommend this dog house to anyone with a medium to large size dog. It keeps the dog nice and warm too. I live in a very cold climate (think 20 below ZERO!) and my short haired beagle does just fine spending the night outside in her dog house.

Since it hasn't gotten too cold yet I can't comment on how warm it is. But it is definitely a well built, solid house. The pieces lock together in a way that keeps out water and even the windows have plastic covers. My dog is a little wary of the door and it takes coaxing to get her to use it. In nice weather I just prop it open. Overall, a great house and I think it should keep her toasty all winter!
Honest reviews on ASL Solutions Foam (Styro/EPS) Insulated Dog Palace
My St. Bernard loves this house. I bought it in the summer and duct taped the hinged door open for a few days. My dog is timid but after throwing in a few dog treats, encouragment and watching me crawl in and out, he became comfortable using it, so I took off the duct tape, crawled inside and he followed! It was a crazy tight squeeze to get out. The hinged door didn't bother him in the least and it is a great design for keeping rain out and removing in the summer. Now it is winter and he is very dry and warm. I agree with another reviewer that the dog creates his own warmth. I added a cedar bed, but would opt for the heater if it froze more often where I live.

I purchased this insulated dog house for my black lab pup about a month ago and she loves it! She easily figured out the hinged entry door the first night and seems to be very comfortable inside even when the overnight lows recently dipped into the 20's deg F. I do plan on adding ASL's FHL-20 thermostatically controlled heat pad for the cold Montana winter ahead. In my opinion the maintenance-free construction and pleasing design/appearance of this dog house makes it a good value. Both dog and I highly recommend this product.
