Review on 🐾 Portable Dog Crate: Collapsible, Travel-Friendly & Washable Soft-Sided Fabric with Soft Mat - Compact, Waterproof & Ideal for Medium to Large Dogs & Cats. Perfect for Vet Visits, Grooming Appointments & Indoor Use by Nate Caldwell

Very durable, well-made dog cage. The quality is much higher than I expected. My daughter has a new puppy and I thought this crate would be great for training and traveling with a new family member. I ordered the medium version and although I knew the measurements I was still surprised by the size. It's not heavy, but feels very sturdy. It's easy to set up, but due to the size, we had to do it with two people, one on each side, to pull it. Folding it back can easily be done by just one person. It comes with a nice carry case with a shoulder strap so it can be transported with minimal fuss or stowed away when not in use. The small drawer has a shoulder strap for the drawer itself, the larger ones don't (they're still too big and bulky). The frame is strong and sturdy, and the mesh is built to withstand heavy use. All the zippers are double-sided, they work smoothly and the ventilation is good because the top, front and back are almost entirely mesh. Sides with a "twist and pull mechanism" for installing / folding the device are made of fabric. The top can be unbuttoned and wrapped at one end to open, and the front and back can also be unbuttoned. When the mesh panels are rolled up tightly, they can be secured with Velcro strips located along the inside of the bottom of the mesh and the top of the drawer. The lining is soft but not as thick as I expected and the frame bars at the bottom of the box aren't covered by it. It's probably fine for a light puppy, but I'm not sure it will support a heavier adult dog enough. The pillow has grooves on the bottom for ventilation, while the top is smooth and easy to clean. I think for now it's ok to just have a blanket over it, but later I'll try to find another pillow to cover it for more comfort. The current price of $62.99 seems very reasonable for this versatile, well-designed dog crate.
