The trap ships flat, so a little assembly is required. the directions aren't very clear, but looking at the parts, it's easy to figure out where things go. Setting the trap door is simple, and the smooth edges allow the trip to release the door to trap animals with little pressure required by the animal. The top of the trap has a metal plate surrounding the handle, making it safer to carry a trapped animal, although I still recommend using sturdy gloves when handling the trap with a live animal inside it. The size is adequate for raccoons, opossums, cats, ad other animals around that size. The wire spacing wouldn't make it a good choice for smaller animals such as rats or chipmunks, although large squirrels may not be able to escape. So far, this trap seems well designed, well made, and should last a long time.

Using this for trapping feral chickens. So far, it caught 1 rooster, 2 chickens, and a chick. It also caught a toad and a dove. The trap works very well, but can sometimes be difficult to set. The trigger mechanism is very sensitive and although it can be adjusted (bending the hook to shape), I've chosen not to adjust it yet. Still waiting to nab a neighboring rooster that crows at all times of night and day. He's comes around every so often, so hopefully, I'll get him shortly. For those who live on Oahu, City Feed sells ready packed chicken feed, around 5lbs, for $6. Apparently, they get a lot of requests for feral chicken bait, so they carry pre-packed bags. This trap is built very well and is a solid buy. If it can fit your needs... buy it! 5 stars! As an aside, it's recommended by Pest control that you shade the trap. I used this shade cloth,. cut it to size, and attached it with zip ties. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CXN7SMXX?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 UPDATE: Since first puchasing this trap in Feb 2025, I've caught over 50 feral chickens in my yard to date (Jul 2025). Also, a few young feral cats that were trapped/released. Howerver, I had to mod the trap by totally covering the entire trap with 1/2" square Hardware cloth (metal wire type), including the doors, because small chicks would escape right through the existing wire grids. Still, the trap works very well for chickens and roosters so I continue to recommend it.

Works as advertised. It’s an ingenious design the way it unfolds and becomes fairly sturdy. Build quality is fair for the low price. Easy to use once you figure it all out

Easy to set up and use. Helped me catch a raccoon that kept getting into my cat's food. Had to tape some card board on it, because otherwise he would just reach through the bars and grab the marshmallows I used for bait. Relocated him to the woods far away.

Trapped feral cats without a hitch.

Cheap material and no instructions on how to assemble or operate the product so definitely not worth the savings over other brands and I didn't even try them

I trapped this little kitten who had taken up residence in my garage at about 8 weeks old. While I like the trap and it worked just fine, if I hadn't been experienced with live traps, I don't know if I'd ever have figured out how to assemble it. The instructions were terrible. Only by knowing the basic premise of how a trap works was I able to get it together. Other than that, it is fine and I will be trapping a mama and two kittens who are now headquartered in my garage. Cats everywhere!

decent size , very poorly written and illustrated instructions, you almost need to speak a second language to understand the badly composed, grammerly incorrect English, amazon should insist that instructions be redone and reviewed for clarity even if they hire a second grader. will not buy the same again
