Performance notes

The leak-proof tray and secure latch are the two functional highlights MidWest calls out directly, aimed at easy cleanup and keeping a large, strong dog from working the door open. The 1 year warranty is notably longer than the 30 to 90 day warranties common on some competing large breed crates, worth factoring into the price comparison.

What buyers say

With 56,884 reviews and a 4.7 star average, this is one of the most reviewed and highest rated crates available, a strong signal of consistent performance across a large number of large breed dogs.
