iCrate Double Door Dog Crate

This is perfect for what I needed. I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the 30inch is perfect for her size. It was also incredibly easy to put together as you basically just have to pull up the sides and kind of snap it together. Also, my dog likes to paw at the door a lot at times and it holds up great to that. This was a great buy for the price and is probably worth more. It does need a crate pad to go into it but I currently have a blanket in there and that works for now also.

This crate saved our trip to Grandma's house! Our old crate was not locking correctly, so I had this one shipped overnight. This crate is high quality, easy to set up and large enough for our two Golden girls. The open sides means the air flow keeps the pups cool and allows them to see what's going on. The crate came with a divider, which would be perfect if you were crate training a puppy. (If the crate is too large young puppies are more likely to use the restroom in one side of the crate.) Ours kids can even break this crate down and slide it under a bed when we are not using it. It is a great value. I loved it so much I bought it twice!

I purchased this crate as a back up to keep up my sister’s house where I visit with my pup often. It arrived on time. It was easy to assemble and it folds down and has a handle for carrying. For the price, I was very impressed with the quality. I have paid twice as much for other crates of the same quality. This is a great bargain! The size was perfect!

I ordered this 30" Midwest crate from Amazon, for my 12 lb Affenpinscher (very, very small dog), having great previous success with a larger crate that's served my larger Belgian Malinois mix very well. I opted for the 30" size, as my intended use is as a night-time sleeping area -- no need to minimize size for portability.This create has slightly-thicker metal than my other crate, appears sturdily-built and exhibits great welds.I'm very glad that I opted for the model that includes a side door (Midwest offers models with and without side doors), as I've found side entry perfect for my Affenpinscher. He happily enters the crate, each night, and lies down in his bed.I would happily select this brand, again.

Good customer service through MidWest via Amazon. The first one arrived dented, and a replacement was on our doorstep within 24 hours, which was very important to us since our new puppy was coming the next day. The replacement was in excellent condition and a breeze to put together. It is a well-constructed crate. The replacement one was also missing one of the two plastic carrying handles that come with it, which is useful for collapsing and carrying it with you on trips. I again reached out to Midwest through Amazon, and the second handle was in the mail within a couple of days. We have the large, 42-inch crate so that our lab can grow into it. So, we love the divider. The divider itself isn't as easy to install inside the crate. You can't just slide it in place and attach it to the sides. You basically have to get down on the floor and instead enter the crate yourself a bit to install it. So, as we adjust to her growing size, that part is cumbersome because it is hard to get it out of the crate and then put it back in. Still, I love having it!

Make sure you have plenty of room for this dog kennel, taking the measurements before you buy it is one thing, actually seeing it put together inside of the house is quite another! Our 3.5 month old great dane puppy was starting to look a bit cramped in an older 36" kennel we had. She still fit but looked very uncomfortable when she tried to stretch out and stand up. She looks so much more comfortable and has plenty of room to grow in this kennel.I read all of the horror stories about the condition people received their kennels in due to the size and weight so I was worried we would receive ours damaged too. Ours actually arrived in pretty good condition. The UPS man moved it around with a dolly and my husband wrestled it into the house. The box is huge and the kennel is very heavy. We sliced open the side and slid the kennel out. Everything is held together with white zip ties. A few of the panels were stuck together, but they were easy enough to unhook the side hooks from where they attached themselves.Putting this together was a bit of a chore, not because it was hard, but because it was big and bulky and there were two of us that insisted we knew what we were doing, so we argued over which way the panels should face, put them upside down a couple of times, then had to re-do them. This does come with a set of directions, but some of the pictures weren't really that clear. The picture on the outside of the box actually gives you a better idea on how this all fits together.There were a couple of places where the wires were bent and we had to straighten them out with a pair of pliers. Also one of the side wires had a broken weld where it connects at the top, it was next to one of the bent hooks (corner area) so it had probably been set down a bit too hard at some point during shipping. It doesn't seem like it will affect the kennel, and it doesn't show so I'm not going to worry about it.I'm not too pleased about the side door of this kennel though. The top slide bolt latch did not slide into the holder that was welded onto the side. The holder had been welded a tiny bit too low (quality control should have checked this), we had to bend the tip of the sliding pin down a little so it would be able to slide into the latch. The side door also seems a little stiff to open and close, as if it is misaligned. We can still open and close the door though, and once shut it is very secure. There were also a few areas we had to straighten out so the drop pins could connect the corners.Once this is put together it really is very sturdy. It is not flimsy at all, we are actually pleased at how sturdy this kennel looks and feels. The bottom pan slides in and out smoothly, and I won't worry about our dog spending time in the kennel while we are gone, or during the night. She loves the extra room and until she finishes growing she has plenty of room inside to sprawl out and play with all of her toys.The problem areas we found when this kennel first arrived were easy fixes, the completed kennel is large and strong. I checked around before I purchased this kennel and the price here was so much more reasonable than anywhere else, plus you get free delivery right to your house. If you have the room, and you have one of the giant breed dogs, then this kennel will be perfect.*Update 7/31/16- at 5.5 months old now our dane puppy is still growing. There is plenty of room in this kennel for her, her jumbo round Costco bed, and a stack of toys. She loves her crate! Our Aussie and the cats also love going inside to relax. Giant puppies can make giant messes, this crate is the perfect size for her and we are so happy that there is plenty of room inside for her to grow. No worries about her eating the couch while we are gone!

This thing came boxed well with no damage upon receipt! It pulled up together good. I never did check the instructions so I can only guess I have it together properly. There is one extra piece I tossed on top. I recommend reading the directions but if you do not, it works perfectly for my 15 pound dog. I absolutely recommend the double door feature. It is totally worth the added cost! Thank you!
