Review on Heininger 3048 PortablePET Pet Partition: Adjustable & Portable Solution for Containing Pets in Vehicles! by Todd Saunders

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Side-moving bars don't snap

It's really cool and very strong! Except that the side moveable bars don't snap into place, hence the 4 stars. However, the likelihood that your dog will understand this and learn to put the bars back in is very small. And there are ways to fix them. A piece of tape is the first idea that comes to mind and the dog won't be able to tape it at all. I think it's for the cargo area but I use mine behind the front seats. This will not allow your front seats to recline or slide back when you install them the normal way. To get around this I attached it to the headrests and built the base into a pocket on the back of my seats (although you could probably use more elastic for the base if your seats don't have pockets on the back) and I have used a piece of corrugated cardboard to block off the center console area (but even a jacket or something can actually work). Now my dogs can't sit in the front at all (1 mix of medium boxers and 2 chivinies) and I can adjust my seats. I'm very glad I bought this! I would attach an image, but the Revain app UI doesn't show my full gallery, leaving me with just a few irrelevant images to choose from.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not automatic
