EliteField 3-Door Folding Soft Dog Crate with Carrying Bag and Fleece Bed (2 Year Warranty), Indoor & Outdoor Pet Home (24″ L x 18″ W x 21″ H, Blue Gray)

Perfect Travel Crate for My Bulldog!
I travel frequently throughout the year with my 60lb male English bulldog, so I needed a crate that was lightweight and travel-friendly. At just 5’5″ and 105lbs, handling heavy metal crates was a hassle—they’re bulky and take up too much space. This crate has been a game-changer! It’s the perfect size for my dog and fits easily in either the trunk or back seat of my Dodge Charger. I couldn’t be happier with this product and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a convenient, durable travel crate.

Excellent Portable Crate for Non-Destructive Small/Medium Dog or Large Cat
I already have a wire crate at home that I use as a regular dog crate, but I didn’t want to fuss with taking it down and setting it back up when I travel to places with my dog, since I use it as an end table as well. So I bought this to be a spacious hang-out crate for my 11-pound pomeranian mix when we go to K9 Nosework class (though he typically rides to/from while harnessed in a dog carseat). And at some point, I’d like to get a miniature poodle and have this be that dog’s travel crate. That’s why I got this size–so it would fit that size dog and not flatten/damage its topknot. (I’m a groomer and go to dog shows, so that’s important to me). And I’ve gotten to use it as such, transporting my friend’s mini poodle(s).For what I use it for now, it’s plenty spacious for my pom mix to spread out and have a large, non-tipping water dish, a food dish, and a toy.It’s lighter than a wire crate of the same size, and will not scratch your walls/doors/car paint if you are moving it around.The canvas is durable and resistant enough that it’s fine to set on the ground outside (provided it’s not really wet or muddy).I love all the different entry points; that makes this crate very versatile so you can put it almost anywhere and still access your pet. When I was transporting my friend’s two (almost fully-grown) mini poodle puppies, the top-loading door was so helpful in keeping them from running out during loading/unloading. That feature would also be great if you’re planning on using this to transport a large cat, as it’s easier to set a cat into a large hole than to try to cram them sideways into a smaller entry. And the doors are all big enough you could get a small litter pan in and out.It is cumbersome to carry this crate, fully-assembled, with an animal in it, for more than a dozen or so feet, so either get a crate dolly (like the kind dog show people use), or look for something smaller (like a large, top-loading, plastic carrier, or a pet stroller) if you want something to manually tote your animal around in. Unless you’re the Hulk; then do whatever you want. ;)I’ve also used this as a car travel crate for my pomeranian mix, and for my friend’s mini poodles (up to two at a time, but it was a little cramped with two full-grown mini poos in there). I put it in the back seat with a seatbelt or two through the top handles. It is not super well-anchored that way, but it doesn’t move around much; just rocks a bit. It’s a bit large for a transport crate for my pom–I’d be worried about him rolling around back there with sudden stops. (I prefer him to be harnessed in his car seat). But it was a good size for transporting the mini poodle(s).I like that the sides are soft, yet sturdy, so the dog isn’t ever slamming against hard surfaces. I don’t know how it would fare in a real wreck (if a dog could fly through a windshield, it’ll probably fly through this), but at least for maneuvering in normal traffic, it’s great. Much safer than having a dog loose in the car, that’s for certain.It has good ventilation with the mesh on 5 out of 6 sides, so the AC can get to the pet. A determined dog could probably tear the mesh apart, but the nervous mini poodle I transported didn’t damage it at all when he was clawing at the mesh for the first 10 or so minutes until he calmed down.It’s very easy to assemble and disassemble. You just pop both pairs of upper support beams together or apart (which I can almost do one-handed), and it folds easily as long as you make sure the beams are not in the way when they dangle down.It folds about as flat as a wire crate of the same size, but I think it’s easier and less of a production than folding a wire crate. Wire crates usually have to swing far one way, then the other, then another–so you need a big floor/table space to set them up or take them down. This folds in on itself, so you can open and close it right in your car without taking it out.It comes with a matching canvas carry bag to fit it in, but I often don’t use that. You can’t fit much of anything else in the bag at the same time; it’s just for the crate and maybe a few flat or small objects that can be squirreled away in the nooks and crannies of the folded crate. And this crate is easy enough to carry without it.It has storage compartments on the top and side, but I’ve never used those. Would be a good place to store low-profile things like your pet’s vaccination records, waste bags, and a small bag of food or treats.It has a thin, fleece pad lining the bottom. Easy to remove to wash. Stays put okay, but not great. If you have a digger, they’ll probably rearrange it at some point. It’s not cushiony; but pro-tip: a standard size pillow fits in the bottom of this crate almost perfectly. ;)On top of everything, it looks nice and is affordable. My sister oohed and ahhed when she saw it and said it looked “fancy.”

Nice product and well made but surprisingly small. We bought the large size but it will be a tight fit for a fully grown Labrador so sent back.

We broke the zipper on the 1st one so we decided to buy another and keep the 1st one for spare parts. The best part was adding the old mattress to the new o e for a very comfy sleep for our dog.
