The Divider Panel Changes Everything

Dogs should not have more crate space than they need during training -- too much room and they use one corner as a bathroom. The divider panel that comes with the iCrate lets you section off the crate so a puppy only has access to a small sleeping area. As the dog grows, you move the divider or remove it entirely. A single crate serves from 8 weeks through adult life without buying a second unit. It also has the largest buyer base of any crate in this review, with strong feedback across it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Strong feedback from a very large number of buyers -- the strongest proof of real-world reliability in this review
  • Divider panel turns one crate into a puppy crate and an adult crate
  • Leak-proof removable tray for easy accident cleanup
  • Folds flat for storage, travel, and car transport
  • MidWest has decades of crate manufacturing experience

Cons

  • Wire construction is not escape-proof for determined dogs
  • Not suitable for large or giant breeds at this size
  • Wire sides feel less den-like than solid-panel crates

Bottom Line

Buy the MidWest iCrate 30-Inch for medium breed dogs. Strong feedback from a very large number of buyers, the divider panel, and the fold-flat design make it the safest crate choice for most households. Size up to the 42 or 48-inch version for larger breeds.
