  • After 3 years: Sturdy and cat loves it
Size: 20.0"L x 12.0"W x 12.0"H Style: Without Wheels
3 YEAR UPDATE: I can't believe I've had my kitty almost 3 years. I still have this carrier and still LOVE it. She still naps in it sometimes and she likes to jump in and out of it while playing. The carrier hasn't shown any signs of damage! It was a great buy that I highly recommend. The only drawback is that she's heavier so it's not as easy to carry her with the shoulder strap, but that's not the carrier's fault. Edited to add: It's been a few months and I still LOVE this carrier. My cat plays in it all the time and scratches at the sides but it doesn't show any sign of damage. I took her to the vet and liked how she could see her surroundings well while being secure in the carrier. I also walked to the vet and it was easy to carry using the shoulder strap. I really am very glad i bought this and my mom has one now for her cats to play in. Original review: I bought this to bring my new cat home from my mom's house, which involved a six hour car ride. I took it to my mom's and set it open on the floor, hoping the new kitty would get used to it and not be scared to go inside. Well, it was a huge hit with all 4 of the cats in the home. They took turns napping in it, and they played with each other through the mesh sides. I was a bit concerned how the mesh would hold up because the kitten seems to think it's a scratching posts, but so far it's fine. It was easy to coax her in after she had spend a few days with The carrier. The kitten didn't enjoy the long car ride and much meowing and scratching ensued, but the carrier was good and fit perfectly behind the front seats. Now we're home and ever though it's only been one day since her harrowing experience, she's already back to napping in the carrier. I guess it's her safe spot, which is great. I plan on buying another for my mom's cats because they loved the thing. I'll update of it doesn't hold up long tem, but it seems well built. ... show more

  • Very Nice Pet Carrier
Size: 16.5"L x 11.0"W x 11.0"H Style: Without Wheels
This Pet Carrier is comfortable for my 10 lb. cat. He has plenty of room to turn around in. This is a medium size Pet Carrier. It has plenty of room for him to look outside. It's very sturdy. He doesn't mind getting in it. It's nothing like those plastic carriers where the kitty can't even look out of it and you have to tip the carrier upside down to get kitty out. It has a really nice top zippered cover to take him out of when we go to the vet. And a very nice zippered front cover for him to get in the carrier. Very, Very Pleased. ... show more

  • Worth getting, though it has a few shortcomings that you may need to compensate for
Size: 20.0"L x 12.0"W x 12.0"H Style: Without Wheels
First things first, up the expected size when buying this, if you're going off dimensions. My 10 lb cat should easily fit within the dimensions of the small but, going off the large I bought, would likely have been extremely cramped within the medium [which was the one recommended for her weight category] (while the large did give her some room to stretch). Best I can figure, the dimensions provided in the listings are made by way of the containers being measured from the outside of the container, including strap ends. As far as the weight recommendations, those also seem dubious, as the large (and its somewhat low quality flooring) buckles enough under her weight that the bottom needs to constantly be supported and, even then, she's still slamming into the sides uncomfortably as we move, given the carrier's lack of stiffness. I've found that sticking a cat bed inside helps both stability and in comfort, so I do recommend that. Further issues with the flooring are that the velcro panels are off-center, which is especially an issue as both the flooring and the padding rely on it to stay down. Or, put another way, good luck on the padding (which is woefully, tragically thin to begin with) actually staying attached. Again, I recommend using a cat bed in place of the included padding. The clip for attaching a collar within the carrier is heavy-weight, while its attached leash is overly short. This means you gotta clip it to itself, to keep it from heavily smacking your cat in the face, or use it to keep your cat tightly locked in place. With neither of those being ideal, this element is the most criticizable with the carrier's current design. The mesh is a slightly sticky kind of plastic, that feels as though it'd be weak to melting or tearing, compared to a more traditional mesh plastic. That said, after a dozen uses, I haven't seen any hint of tearing, or even stretching, so this doesn't appear to be an actual issue. The carrier is stiff enough to maintain general form- it won't buckle, so long as you have the flooring in place, and it'l mostly maintain its rectangular shape while carrying it. That said, it could definitely do with a bit more stiffness- as I noted before, it easily warps in places while carrying it, leading to extreme discomfort and instability for any included cat and, even with a cat bed inside, still has some "squishing" on the sides and top. This again emphasizing that a larger-than-recommended carrier is ideal, so as to give your cat protection against being tapped on by the container. All criticisms said, the container is still one of the best soft mesh containers I've seen and, even more notable, and despite all the traumatizing instances of being carried around in it, my little fluffball rather loves sleeping in the carrier at home. It's definitely got a design that cats find appealing, especially if you leave the top flap slightly unzipped, allowing them more options in how to get in and out. All things considered, I'd say that each tier of the carrier is inflated in price by about 30%, relative to the quality of design and materials provided. In fairness, this may still be less than other soft mesh carriers I've seen, which are all but useless and made of clearly inferior materials and still insist on $30 price tags. Rather, the Amazon carrier is one of the better soft mesh carriers I've seen- and that despite its obvious corner-cutting, certain haphazardly implemented elements, and dubious recommendations on associable size and weight. All in all, this is a carrier that could use some improvements but, in the meantime, works rather well. if you don't have time or energy to hunt down something a bit more refined (and again, most soft mesh carriers you'll find will likely be worse quality than these), then this is a fairly reliable one. Moreover, if you can get it on sale, you'll get pricing suitable for making up for the slight quality issues. In the end, it's not a carrier I regret buying, as it handles what it needs to well enough, and its issues can mostly be resolved just by adding a cat bed, strapping down the attached leash to the side of the carrier, and adding an additional (better quality) leash to it. And, moreover, it's a carrier that has held up over repeatedly being walked places. If you're not doing any long-distance travelling, and just need something to get your cat to the car and back, then this should be fairly ideal. Besides, by this point, it might be worth its cost just off of how much my girl has been enjoying using it for naps. ^.^ ... show more

  • Better than the more expensive name-brand soft pet carriers, highly recommended!
Size: 20.0"L x 12.0"W x 12.0"H Style: Without Wheels
I have two medium-sized cats. Previously, I used hard carriers whose doors were metal grates. In the car, one of the cats would constantly work at the grate to try to open the door, and his paws would start bleeding. It was time to get a soft carrier. My first soft carrier was a name brand that cost much more than the Amazon Basics one. It did the job okay, but the sides were not rigid enough and it would collapse too easily. The large Amazon Basics carrier is just about perfect. The sides are just rigid enough that it holds its shape. It is soft and comfy inside. I love that it has a door on top as well as on the front - sometimes at the vet, the cat won't come out of the carrier front door, so you can open the top door and just lift him out. I've only had it a few months, but it seems reasonably well-made - at least as well-made as the more expensive name-brand carrier I bought. One last thing about the size: I got the large. The medium is big enough for a cat but not very roomy inside. The large is big enough that the cat can comfortably turn around and change positions. I think this is very important on long car rides. The only downside of the large size is it might not work for bringing your cat on an airplane. But I never do that, so it's no problem for me. ... show more
