Customers say
Customers find the pet carrier well-constructed with sturdy zippers and appreciate its generous size for soft-sided carriers, taking up minimal space in closets or drawers. Moreover, the carrier works well for small dogs, is comfortable for pets to sleep in, and folds flat for storage. Additionally, they like its appearance, with one customer noting the nice bright nylon canvas fabric, and find it easy to transport, particularly for larger breeds like Dachshunds.

Lifesaver!
We bought this for our 10lb Yorkie poodle mix so he would have somewhere comfy to be on a 4 day road trip in the middle of our 75lb German Shepherd and our 3 year old’s car seat in my VW Passat. This carrier is awesome and fit perfectly. He just fit in it with a little room so if you have a dog that is much bigger I would go with a larger size. It is collapsible but easily put together by zipping the front and back panels. There is panel on top that zips open to let doggie’s head stick out, a hook inside the carrier that can clip on to a collar or harness, the front flap zips closed or can be rolled up and attaches to a small piece of Velcro, and the padded insert inside is removable to wash. There are also 2 compartments on the back- a mesh pocket and a snapped pocket (we kept his leash in the mesh one). It seems to be very durable and held up quite well. We don’t use it very often now but it is definitely something we will use until it totally falls apart.

Study, spacious, well-made, and useful!
I love these cat carriers! I don’t think I could find such quality at a cheaper price. When I opened the packages and looked them over for defects, I was just in awe of how well they were made. I have 3 cats, so I bought 3 carriers to take them all to the vet at the same time. They do fold down for storage, but I leave them up in case of an emergency. This carrier is very sturdy, the bottom doesn’t buckle from my cats’ weight and the sides do not collapse inward. The bottom of the carrier consists of a wooden board, covered with the carrier’s material and a soft pad for you pet to lay on. In the back corner of the carrier, there is a lead to restrain your pet and prevent him from jumping out as soon as you open the carrier. There are 2 zipper enclosures, on on the front and the other on the top, both of which can be rolled back and fastened with the velcro strips. There are mesh windows on all 4 sides and the top of the carrier. There is 2 carrying handles on the top that can be fastened together with the velcro. There is even a loop on the back side of the carrier for a seat-belt to go through to secure your pet in a vehicle. This is a very spacious carrier and allows for enough room for even larger cats, including my Maine Coon mix. I couldn’t ask for a better carrier for my cats.

Much better than traditional carriers!
Wow what an upgrade! This putty tat went from a small studio in Manhattan to a luxury condo on the burbs! He HATED the old carrier. It took a minimum of 2 people to force him in the thing! I’ve had the new one opened for less then 10 minutes and he already WILLINGLY went in by himself! He is a fairly large boy and still has plenty of room as you can see from the picture. I love that I can secure it in the car with a seat belt and that is has mesh windows on all four sides plus the top to let in more light. Set up was a breeze and I love that it can be stored flat with no more than a quick unzip! No bars to disconnect inside, just unzip, fold the sides down and viola! The structure is very sturdy with a solid bottom that won’t sink in when you carry it with the pet inside. I have yet to test this baby out on the road but something tells me he will do much better in this carrier compared to the old one! Highly recommended!! This one checks ALL the right boxes!!**Update**2 years later and I’m still in love!! I’ve used this now on many road trips including and trip from Ohio to Georgia and back. The quality is still just as good now as the day I bought it. I even tested it in the washing machine to see how it would hold up. Cleaned up nicely and still holds a perfect shape. I would let it air dry though. Not sure how it would hold up in the dryer. Still very happy with this purchase! This one was made to last!

Keeps My Dogs Safe
I have two small dogs, so I bought two of these for a trip we will be taking soon. One of my dogs is a rescue FROM a rescue society, and as such, she’s used to being schlepped around to this or that pet shop for meet’n’greets with potential new owners. But my other dog was rescued off the streets, and he has no car manners at all. He is a nightmare while driving – he whines, paces nervously, tries to sit on you while you’re driving, wants to be everywhere you don’t want him. We were rear ended a few years ago with him in the car – he was launched toward the windshield from between the seats, where he’d been trying to come up front. Luckily, I was able to get my arm up fast enough to stop him, or he’d have been a guided missile through the glass. This little kennel prevents mishaps like that because it has a strap across the back which allows you to thread the shoulder belt through and hold the kennel in place in case of any sudden stops.The dogs can see through the mesh, so it’s not like they’re in a box. There’s just enough room for him to turn around and get comfy – he’s a little bigger than our other dog, so he’s a little squished in there, but there’s plenty of give in the side and top walls, so he can move around if he needs to. But he has, so far, laid down and been much more settled while we’re on the road. The whining has all but stopped, and he seems to be ok with the ride, for the most part – maybe it’s due to being able to see and be close to our other dog, and we tell him to watch her and do what she does. It’s made traveling with him a lot easier, and I think it helps him be calmer, too. Great, lightweight, good quality stitching and construction.

Good for big cats (>17 lbs)
I have struggled to find a carrier for a large cat (he’s almost 20 lbs) that isn’t a nightmare to get him in and out of. This one has worked out pretty well. There’s plenty of space for him in there, and the zippered seams make it a breeze to get him in and out — no more wrestling with my huge cat every time we go to the vet. It’s also easier to carry than any of the hard cases we’ve had previously — the handle is padded and easy to hold and the soft sides of the carrier mean you don’t have to hold it out away from you when you walk. If you have a big cat, you know how hard it can be take them out of the house (I tried to get mine to do a harness and leash just to avoid this problem, but he hated it). This carrier makes it a tiny bit easier.

It’s ok for small calm pets but because there’s no structure to keep the kennel frame solid I would be cautious with active pets .
Gale –
very sturdy and has comfy matt inside. great for keeping my 10lb. dog secure in car and as a carrier.

We bought this to use as a booster in our car. Works well generally. Can be attached to the car for safety. Cat collar can be attached to internal harness for safety. Much easier to carry around as so light, so we have retired our old plastic carrier. It’s good we can open the lid and pet her to keep her calm.
