18-Inch iCrate for Tiny Breeds, Up to 10 lbs, Single Door Folding Dog Crate with Divider Panel, Leak-Proof Tray & Secure Latch, Portable, Durable & Easy to Assemble

Very sturdy and simple to put together. No tools required for assembly. Basically unfolds and clips into place. Be careful not to pinch your fingers though on the last panel. We have a larger wooden crate for our puppy but I was looking for something smaller to provide a safe place for him to sleep as he trains and to provide a safe place for him to stay in the kitchen while I’m cooking. It is lightweight enough that I can just pick it up and move it room to room without collapsing the kennel. Arrived in excellent condition and has a great door latch that is stable and secure. This size is perfect for a 24 inch padded crate mat for him to rest on. I don’t like to just leave the uncomfortable plastic tray as his space to lay but it is easy to remove and clean when needed. The divider that comes with it might work for smaller breeds but would make the space too small for my puppy’s needs. It’s a great size for the car if needed as well.

I hated putting my Great Dane in her crate. She was crate trained since a pup, so she was fine. It was ok for her size, but I hated that she couldn’t fully stand up or stretch out. I searched and read reviews on larger options. This one had great reviews and looked large enough to meet my requirements. It arrived quickly and immediately I was super impressed with the quality. So much better than most. The crate is made of thick, tough metal. It might be tough enough to crate a Malinois! Definitely strong enough for my 145 lb Great Dane. Set-up was really easy and didn’t require a bunch of tools. I would highly recommend looking at the pictures and labeling the pieces before getting started. It makes it easier, you don’t have to keep referring to the pictures. Once it was up, we tried it out. I was overjoyed - seriously! It was SO big!! Bigger than I expected-it was perfect! She has so much room- she actually can horse jump onto her back legs a little. She can spread paws out comfortably. I couldn’t be happier. Honestly, look no further- you could not find a larger, better quality crate if you tried. Absolutely a fantastic value too -worth every penny. I am 100% guilt-free putting my girl in her “room”.

I actually use this as a carrier for my chickens and it works great. Sturdy, easy to transport, and the size is perfect for short trips or temporary holding. Well made and does exactly what I need it to.

This dog crate is exactly what I needed for my puppy. It is sturdy, well-made, and feels secure without being heavy or bulky. The size is perfect, giving my puppy enough room to move comfortably..Assembly was quick and straightforward, and the door latch works smoothly and reliably. I also appreciate that it is move when needed. Overall, this crate has been a great purchase and a great price!

Nice quality. Easy to set up. I have an 8-week-old puppy who needs a kennel in the bedroom at night. The size is just right. He won't fit when he's full-grown, but it works while training. It fits a 24x24 round bed with little room to spare, so the bed takes up the whole bottom of the kennel.

This crate is huge! If you have a large dog this is the one. Seems to be sturdy and well made. Easy to assemble. This is a very nice crate for the price.

When we got our 2 American Eskimo Dogs from Eskie Rescue recently, our Rescue owner let us borrow her #2 24” Aspen crates, which were fine for our new dogs to get them home. They were comfortable, and both dogs could lie down in them for their 2.5 hour journey home. Several days later, when I ran a search for the Aspens, they were expensive, even around the holidays, during which many items on sale. The reviews for the Midwest ICrate, however, caught my eye: the price for a 30” crate was much cheaper than the 24” Aspens AND they were on sale. ICrate is also an American company based in Muncie, IN, and it has been in business for over 90 years. Buying anything American is a boost for US workers and businesses. Even though these ICrates are manufactured in China, they are made with exacting US standards/ assurances and Quality Control 6-Sigma Lists, to ensure the best quality products. When I read the reviews of the ICrate, the price was great and so was the product. We bought 2 of them. Here are the specifications for the ICrate Model 1530: 30” (L) X 19: (W) X 21” (H); Weight: 18 lbs. This crate is made for breeds that weight 26-40 lbs. (Our Eskies weigh 23 and 25 lbs.) Even though a standard Eskie is listed for the next larger crate size, our Eskies fit in their 30” crates comfortably even with their food dishes in them plus a small water dish. We also cover the bottom plastic tray with either a bulky blanket or a King-size sheet, scrunched up for adequate snuggling. The 30” also fits onto our car back seat for transport. Even though there is only one door on this crate, it is adequate for our needs. 5 other things on the ICrate are noteworthy: 1. There is a divider panel, which can be used for a pup to gradually become an adult (and owners don’t have to buy interim crates along the way); 2. There is a handle; 3. There are 2 rollers (1 front and 1 back), to allow the entire crate to easily and smoothly be rolled on the floor without gouging or scraping the floor; 4. The crate comes in a satin-black electro-coat finish (the door seems to have a plastic-coated latch); and 5. The crates are easy to clean: we haul them out on our deck, spray them with a Tide-vinegar-water mix, and then hose them down. They dry fast after they are tipped against a railing post. Setting up the ICrate took very little time; we just watched the video, followed the instructions, and the crate was erected in no time. Our 25 lb. 4 year-old male Eskie now uses his ICrate as his main abode because the kennels that we have used for our other dogs, internationally, have 1 door whose latch is broken after years of use. He’s entirely comfortable in his ICrate, and because it is positioned to see the entire kitchen and dining rooms areas, he can ‘monitor’ to see when we are coming into the kitchen to see him! (We often catch our 5 year-old 23-lb. female going in his ICrate to check it out [even though she has her shipping kennel to go in.]) When our boy wants some voluntary ‘time-out’, he self-exiles, and we often find that he just gets in his ICrate and goes to sleep, especially after walks, play-time, and meals. When we want to shut out some noise and light, we place a blanket or King-size flat sheet on top of the crate and let it drape down over both sides and the front. One last comment: What is the determining factor for buying the ICrate? The most important point is whether our dogs like being in the ICrate or not: Our boy loves his ICrate (and our girl also loves HIS ICrate). From this, we think that other dogs will want one, too!

Ordered this crate for our new cavalier puppy to crate/potty train her. We especially wanted a crate with a divider bc she’s very small right now. So this crate was perfect. Setup was a breeze as was adding the divider, which can be adjusted accordingly depending on the size of the dog. The crate is sturdy and the latch is strong and easy to use. The design is perfect with no spaces between the wires that would be large enough for our puppy to escape. Overall I am very pleased and would recommend.
