Why it matters

The 30 in iCrate measures about 30.5 x 19.25 x 21.5 in and MidWest sizes it for dogs of 21–40 lb, such as French Bulldogs and Dachshunds; for dogs near 40 lb it suggests the 36 in model. It folds without tools and includes a divider so a puppy can grow into it, a leak-proof plastic pan, rubber feet and a carry handle. Rounded corner clips and a slide-bolt latch with Paw Block reduce snags and escapes.

  • Very low price
  • Folds flat

Cons
