Aluminum Collapsible Dog Crate, Heavy Duty Folding Kennel - Small (Black)

This is the best crate I've bought in my life, so easy to pack up and move to and from my friends house. Its basically the impact crate but your not paying the 1300 it would cost if you bought from them. The latch latches strongly, easy to fold (just make sure to remove dog toys first, made that mistake), super strong (can contain my 40 pound Aussie easily (size medium). No creaking or screeching in the hinges. Matches my esthetic of industrial that everyone notices and comments on. I took a photoshoot of my dog and her breaking out of her old crate and putting her in a jail suit outfit and sending her to "maximum security doggy jail." Even had the front and side mug shots next to her crate with a sign saying what she was in there for ahah. Was a perfect funny Facebook story post.

This crate is exactly like an Impact collapsible crate at a much more reasonable price. The door is like the older version of Impacts with the bars instead of holes. I prefer this as it gives much better ventilation. The large is equivalent to the 40+ with Impact. Impact charges $1300 for the tan vs $750 for this one. The thumb screws are a game changer and really make the crate solid. It's such a good idea that Impact sort of copied it except theirs are 2 pieces with a bolt that goes on the inside and a cheap plastic nut that goes on the outside. The only negative (and it's not enough to take off any stars IMO) is I don't like how the tabs on the side rails are exposed on the inside of the crate (2nd pic). For some dogs that chew on everything, this could be a cutting hazard. Impact collapsible crates gave the same issue. I wish there were little pockets welded on the inside that would cover the tabs. Maybe future versions could incorporate something like that.

My dog has high separation anxiety. He’s about 70-80 of muscle. He’s destroyed 3 other crates before this. Even ones considered “heavy duty”. While this is big, it holds up to his chaos. I live in an apartment or we’re traveling in an RV and it’s easy to assemble or disassemble daily if needed. It’s not ideal but it’s doable. It’s sturdy while still being collapsible which I found hard to find.

This cage is nice the answer for an anxiety filled dog. The bracket covering the lock mechanism on the inside is sharp enough to cut your hand. My dog is starting to chew through the door. It came bent up. For the price I shouldn't have any of these problems. DO NOT BUY. THIS CAGE WILL HURT YOUR DOG.

Love this crate so much. Holds up great and keeps our pet safe. Love that it collapses, makes moving it and storing it so easy. Even loaned it to a friend to help with their new husky and is still doing great. Budget friendly compared to Impact and no bad reputation. 10 outta 10 would buy again.

One of our dogs is a 63lb rescue who wasn't crate trained (and didn't want to be). He would get into things (garbage, food, M&Ms, etc) and ruin things when we were gone (i.e. scratch doors & window sills, chew blankets). He knocked screens out and escaped from our RV twice while traveling. He broke out of the folding wire crates easily and chewed through (!!!) a $250, THICK, composite plastic crate. Imagine coming home from work to a possible vet visit (and bill) almost every day! This crate has changed all our lives. He is SAFE now when we're at work and on the road. It has the perfect amount of room for him, it's secure (we don't even have to additionally lock it - though we could), and it's not too difficult to manage folding down. I'm so glad this company offered this crate for this price. It's a lot of money, but WORTH it compared to the alternatives.

Looks like a good and sturdy kennel. Unfortunately it was damaged in the transport and I didn’t see damage until it was fully assembled. I will repurchase it again.

Don’t listen to the armatures negatively reviewing this kennel. This kennel sets up fast and tears down the same. If you own a tornado of a dog, then you need this crate! I’ve read some of the reviews on here and people complain about the moistnessYes, aluminum is noisy, so get a pad for the bottom. If his crate is durable and escape proof if set up correctly. I’ve used some of the higher end K9 kennels offered by other companies and this one is by far the lighter of the bunch. Totally worth it if you have a lot of dog.

Lightweight but very sturdy.

Está Muy bien, resistente, lo es un poco estorbosa y pesada, pero me siento seguro con ella
