Question 1

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

Accepted Answer

No, it has not. I received the 36x23x25 intermediate crate today (2/22/2019) and the edges are definitely sharp. In the past two years, I have ordered two of the higher end MidWest Ultima Pro crates and neither had sharp edges. I wish that I purchased another Pro but I needed something lighter, cheaper for a growing puppy. I think the Midwest Pro is the way to go-thicker, sturdier, no sharp metal.

Question 3

Looking 2 buy double door crate for 2 dogs w/idea of using the separator 2 put each dog on a side 2 have access 2 their own door.  Will this work?

Accepted Answer

As others have said, the configuration of the two doors is as shown in the pictures which renders the middle partition somewhat useless.  However, with a set of pliers and about 10 minutes of work, you can swap the two end pieces and have doors that access both sides.  If you bend back the 4 retaining loops on the bottom of both end pieces with some pliers and swap the two ends, the end piece with the door will then be separated from the side access door.  With the partition approximately in the middle, you then have room for 2 dogs with separate access.  One partition is larger than the other due to the width of the side door, and in my case, I ran the partition slightly diagonally to make them more even.  Hope this helps!

Question 4

How do you insert the divider? It seems not wide enough to be engaged into both sides.

Accepted Answer

The divider is wide enough to insert into both sides, you probably have to rotate it.  However, there is a small gap between the roof of the crate and the divider.
