Amazon Basics Dog Crate, Travel Dog Kennel Double Door Collapsible, Lightweight Soft-Sided Folding, Portable Dog Cage, XL 42" x 31" x 31", Tan

Hands down the best crate we've ever used. I love that it's portable by folding up, it has ventilation on top, sides at the top, and the 2 ends that are for opening. Gives great shade. We have a more petite GSP and we call it her bedroom. Tons of room for her. It's very sturdy. I keep a few of her things on top when vacuuming (also easy to do), extra blankets, her bedtime large lambchop, even a laundry basket. It shows no sign of sagging or wear and tear. It is kept in our bedroom. She finds that is her safe space when she needs to get rest. She doesn't mind going in when we need her to vs a wired crate or a 2 piece plastic carrying crate. I highly recommend this brand and crate for home, when traveling and you're staying somewhere, or to simply bring to the beach, camping etc. I don't know how water resistant it is as we use it here at home. We got the largest side for her. It's like a king size in a master bedroom for us.

Bought used item. Shipped & arrived as promised. In great condition. Fairly easy to set up, once I figured it out. Very sturdy once it went up however I could see that if a dog was a chewer or anxious it could be destroyed from the inside because it is made from a canvas/duffel like material but that is why it’s a travel crate. I was specifically looking for a travel crate to take to agility class/competitions as you have to crate your dog in between runs. However, I will be returning this particular crate as it is way too big for my 43 lb. Standard Poodle. I purchased the 42L x 31W x 31H crate and upon setting it up realized it was more suited to my 81 lb. Belgian Malinois Doodle. As far as I’m concerned though, the Amazon Basics travel crate gets 5 stars for quality, ease of use/setting up and it’s very light for it’s size. P.S.: It would need to have a pad put in the bottom of it though as there is absolutely no padding. The bottom of the crate is shiny plastic so any liquids spilled (water, urine, etc.) would be easy to wipe up. UPDATE TO ABOVE REVIEW: So I returned the above crate & ordered one size down (36"L x 24"W x 24"H) thinking that this would be a better fit for the 43lb. Standard Poodle. When this new crate arrived, much to my dismay, she is too tall for it! :( She literally cannot stand up fully in the new crate nor even sit up straight; Otherwise in all the other dimensions it "fits" her. Now I'm kicking myself for returning the bigger crate. Who knew that crate shopping for your dog was as painful as shopping for a swimsuit??? Thank goodness for Amazon and their return policy.

We have a hard sided dog travel crate, but Amazon is great 2 in 1 product. Folds flat to take with you. Opens and set up in seconds. We got the medium one which is not much bigger than our hard sided dog travel crate. However, this one is more like our dogs home crate and she much prefers it to the travel crate. I recommend purchasing the one with the built-in strap. It makes it much easier to carry this case when it's folded up.

Nice and light weight, easy to assemble. I do wish it had a side door though>

This portable kennel is so nice, I bought two of them. I’ve used it multiple times on vacation for my two pups. It’s breathable, it breakdowns easy, and light to carry. It’s ideal for tight spaces, outdoor outdoors and can be stored anywhere.

This crate will not dissapoint. Quality, sturdy, roomy, decent zipper, decent mesh windows. Plenty room to spare for a 10 lb. dog. Easy use. No smell. Value for $ Would purchase again. Good shipping/packaging.

This is the second one I have purchased and I continue to love it! I have a dog that is nervous in the car but she’s too big for car seats. So I thought maybe a kennel would help her feel more secure. It worked so well! The kennel itself is super. It’s easy to collapse and set up. It’s just two steps really - lift up the two metal frames on each side and then pull out and place the bracing arms. It feels very sturdy and it has great little features like a zip open top with a Velcro strap to hold it while open. That’s how my dog rides in it. It also has a little clip for you to lock the zipper into for the front door. The front door has a Velcro strip that lets you roll it up and place it. It didn’t work super well because it’s only on one side so the other side dangles a bit. But it worked well enough. I agree with other reviewers that this is not a product for dogs who will attempt to escape or who will scratch at the kennel. The canvas/vinyl style fabric is great but it won’t stand up to major scratching or biting for too long. I bought the large one for my first trip and it was really big. I had to collapse it in order for it to fit in my car and then I could set it up once inside. It did require putting the back seat down. The medium fit in my back seat without needing to drop the seat or adjust the front seats. It also will only go in collapsed but it sets up well once inside. I also used this in hotels when leaving my dog for a while. No issues. It cleans easily too if you get mud or something in it.

Product Review: Amazon Basics Dog Crate – Faulty Zipper on Second Purchase I’m leaving this review to share my experience with the Amazon Basics Dog Crate. I’ve purchased this item twice. The first crate worked well sturdy, comfortable, and my 75-pound Rottweiler really enjoys it. However, the second crate I received had a major issue: the zipper system on the door/entry screen was faulty. While attempting to zip it closed, the zipper track became misaligned and eventually detached completely. There’s no practical way to repair it, which makes the crate unusable for secure containment. This seems to be a quality control issue that potential buyers should be aware of. Because of this defect, I’ll be requesting a refund or an exchange. I still believe the crate has potential, but only if the zipper system is reliable. Until then, I recommend checking the zippers thoroughly before relying on it for regular use especially if you have a large dog like mine. Taj Reid
