Questions & Answers
I'm not sure what I'm saying. One that I own is navy blue.
I read these reviews before purchasing these, drove 3 hours to fly them on the plane, and they were refused because they have holes on the bottom half of the crate, which cannot be allowed. I was forced to purchase their crate, which was twice the size of what I required and cost me $400 in additional plane tickets and $90 per crate. DELTA. beware
The size of the animal and how much headspace it requires determine the height and length.
The majority of our products are made in the United States, but this is not one of them. It's a Chinese-made product.
Selected User Reviews For IRIS Medium Deluxe Pet Travel Carrier
I purchased both the Petmate Sky kennel and this one (both in the Small size) so that I could compare the two and ultimately choose this one. The following are the reasons for this: • The handle is exceptional, and it is extremely dependable. The handle on Petmate feels EXTREMELY flimsy and prone to breaking. br>• Plastic is used to construct both kennels. Petmate has more flexibility than IRIS, but I prefer the quality and feel of IRIS. br>• Although the nuts and screws are all metal, they require a hex key wrench (which is included with the L wrench). Although the nuts on Petmate are made of plastic, they do not require the use of any additional tools. • IRIS has two holes at the top and bottom of the door frame, which is a good feature. You can tie it up to keep it from being opened by accident. (When traveling by plane)br>• IRIS has a flat floor, whereas Petmate has a ditch around the perimeter. Depending on your requirements, they have advantages and disadvantages. I prefer to use a dry pad, so IRIS is the better choice. • More vent holes equals more airflow. br> Petmate is also good, but the metal windows on both sides give me pause. I'm concerned that if I hit them, my cat will suffer an injury. Metal windows, on the other hand, may be better for dogs because they have smaller vent holes that prevent their paws from reaching outside. (Dog chews)br>• Without disassembling the kennel, the door can be opened from either side or completely uninstalled. • Less expensive! (for the time being)br>• In Japan, the IRIS kennel is quite popular. I was concerned about "Made in China," but when I received it, it exceeded my expectations in every way. Each and every detail is of exceptional quality. Internal size: 17. br>br>Small model (21 inches) 5"L 11"- 12"W (bottom edge to edge and center-to-center and bottom edge to edge and center-to-center and center-to edge-to-edge height) 13. 5"H.
I've bought several travel cases for my dogs and cats over the years, and this one is made of excellent materials. The plastic appears to be strong and sturdy, but the door is extremely flimsy. I honestly don't think I'd trust it with my air travel. I bought the small size, but now I'm wondering if I should have gone with the x-large. Because at least one side of the door is securely in place for that carrier, it's a small one. I'm also perplexed as to why a door latch locking mechanism was not included. Overall, the design is illogical and clearly the work of someone who has never actually transported animals. I'm keeping the carrier because I try to avoid returning items unless they're absolutely necessary, but this is a huge letdown.
I really like the fact that it's made of screws rather than nails. This carrier is extremely sturdy. I really like how it's held together with screws rather than latches. My 18-pound cat was perfectly comfortable in the small, with plenty of room to turn around. Unlike the majority of carriers, this one is not made cheaply.
For my long-distance flight, I've been looking for an airline that is airline-compliant. big-bodied, big-hearted corgi-headed corgi-headed corgi-headed corgi- mix of sorts I am currently residing outside of the United States, and she will accompany me to my new residence. It's critical to have a carrier that's sturdy, ventilated, and fits into a shipping box that's under a certain size; I was constantly looking for carriers that were long enough for my dog, but they were never tall enough due to her high, erect ears. This carrier met all of my requirements, and I especially like that it comes with a food/water bowl (which I will replace for airline travel). It included metal screws and a couple of "live animal" stickers. I was also happier with this purchase because it was more cost-effective on Amazon than on the Iris website.
(We raise Arctic Spitz puppies and travel or ship them all over the United States. ) Very strong and well-made. designed. It has a good grip. The door is well-built, and it is simple to operate. open from the left or right (but not easily opened by dogs! ) and the crate itself is appealing and simple to put together. br>br>The only drawback is that they can be difficult to find online! We've bought a lot of crates over the years, and while we prefer these, we've had to settle for less-than-ideal alternatives many times because these aren't available when we need them. Make preparations in advance. It's money well spent!.
Please provide a size between 21" and 26" in length. The quality is excellent. The plastic is noticeably thicker than that of competing brands. The handle has a more substantial feel to it. I like how big the door is and how secure it is. The latch is fantastic! Because the pokey parts are contained in a housing, you can't poke yourself like you can in cheaper kennels. So it's because I adore it that I'm disappointed that there isn't a size between 21" and 26" available. My Norfolk terriers weigh in at around 14 pounds, so there are no weight issues. However, the 21" isn't quite as spacious as the 26", and the 26" is far too spacious. Keep your eyes peeled for what you're going to do. It's like when you're a half-size shoe and have to wear shoes that don't fit because only whole sizes are available. Sigh. In any case, I intend to keep both.
I drove my two cats in these crates. The crates are well-made and easy to put together. br>I like that the crates come with a bowl that can be attached to the small door because I've used them on the trip and they've stayed put. If you're driving with your pet, they're also a good size for a temporary food bowl. br>I purchased the medium-sized crate, which accommodated both of my cats! So I was relieved to discover that they had plenty of room to stretch in their own crate. If you're looking for a dependable and long-lasting crate, I recommend this one.
I needed something more durable to replace my old Pet Taxi, and this fit the bill perfectly. I looked at a lot of different options before settling on this one, and I'm glad I did. It includes everything you'll need and is simple to put together. My cats (which range in age from ten to a hundred years old) All of the items (12 lbs) fit perfectly with plenty of room to maneuver. It's also taller than the carriers I'm used to, which makes them feel less cramped. This was well worth the money to me because I no longer have to hold the bottom in case it pops open. The plastic is thick and rigid, and it's held together with screws rather than plastic clips. The door closes securely, and there are no rough edges on the inside (other brands have had this problem, causing animals to be cut). This is the carrier I will buy next time I need a new one.
