OK.
Date: November 20, 2009
"This cat door is just OK. It works well, in that it does it's job. I bought the small one and it was totally fine for our two average sized cats. It is NOT quiet though. That doesn't bother me much really, since I have 2 kids under 2 so our house is always noisy anyways. haha. But yes, I can hear the cats going through it from the other room. Also, my cats have figured it out! It goes from our kitchen to basement door. At night we lock them in the (finished & warm, with food and water) basement since they are more like dogs and will rip apart the house at night. Anyways, I would lock it so they could go down but not back up. Well, we discovered that our cats use their paw to swing it up and then quickly shove their heads through to catch it, and then get in! ALSO, yesterday our cat banged into it repeatedly when it was completely locked and busted the locking mechanism of the plastic!! So now it won't lock at all and we have to get a new one. SO, apparently the plastic isn't very strong. Or my cat has super-cat strength and a hard head! Which I suppose is highly likely. These cats are more like mini-tigers! Like I said before, they are really more like dogs in every way, which is very strange. ANYWAYS, yes, this cat door is alright. I suppose if you have an older cat that is more mellow it wouldn't be an issue at all (ours are just a year old)."

Flap Qaulity Door
Date: June 28, 2008
"Flap door is of questionable quality. The plastic swivel pins on the flap door broke and the manufactured would not replace the door. Problem similar to one mentioned in another review of this product."

good flap
Date: January 22, 2008
"Good cat flap. I use it on an indoor door so I remove the plastic flap altogether. It's neat and tidy looking, not too big, and now I can put the litter box in the closet and not have to leave the door open!"

has limitations
Date: January 4, 2008
"For the price this is OK, but it does not stand up well to daily locking and unlocking. Considering the cost of installing, get the higher priced flaps."

Not all that quiet, breaks easily
Date: February 5, 2007
"I have used this door between an indoor and outdoor cat area. I already had to replace it once because it broke (the flap itself--near one of the pins which holds it in place and lets it swing) and now my 2nd one has broken as well. I don't know if it's because it gets brittle when exposed to cold air--if this product shouldn't be used outdoors, they should let customers know. Also, they claim this door is "quiet"--I would say it's anything but. I can EASILY hear whenever one of my cats is going through it, especially when at a run. And like the other reviewer said, the locking mechanism is a joke. My cats have easliy pushed it open when it was supposed to be locked."

Locking mechanism is a joke!
Date: October 26, 2006
"My cat took about 1 minute with this door and she pats it with her paw just enough to lift the door up and clear the little locking pins that BARELY even come up!
I contacted the company to see if they could replace the faulty product. Instead they responded by telling me that if I wanted to lock my cat in then I should just purchase a different product that uses a seperate closing cover! Its funny that they claim on the description that you can lock this cover but then won't stand by that statement once you buy it and it won't do its job!
