Side by Side Comparison of: Carlson Pet Products vs Precision Pet vs AmazonBasics vs MidWest Homes for Pets vs HUALAN

Great kennel at a great price. My little buddy loves his 'bed.' Folds flat so we can take it anywhere. Shut the door and keep him in when necessary, leave it open and let him take a nap on his 'pillows.'

A sturdy kennel at a great price. Easy to clean, easy to set up in a minute, door fastens easily, and my puppies love it. Plenty of room for them to stand up in, and they even roll around and play in it. I like the black color, too. I have bought two of these.

When we got this cage, we expected it to be hard to assemble. Instead, it only took about half a minute! It is also very sturdy and of good quality, especially considering the low price. Our kitten also loves it. She goes into it by herself sometimes, and sleeps in it without a problem. It's very roomy, and is comfortable for her. We all really like this cage. Its quality makes it worth much more than its price.

This crate is well-made, easy to assemble, and frankly, a lot better than the crate I bought from PetCo for a heck of a lot more. I would recommend this to anyone with a medium-sized dog (I have a Cockapoo). The only slight complaint is the lock handle on the front seems a bit loose, but it locks just fine so we'll see if it stands up to wear.

These crates are an excellent deal. We have two boston terriers, one is 25lbs and one is 35lbs and they are the perfect size for them. Not too big but not so small as that all they can do is turn around. The set up and break down takes mere seconds. We bought them for traveling and they are super easy to break down and throw in the trunk or the back of the truck. They take up very little space when laid flat. They seem very durable and the removable pan is easy to clean. Very happy with this purchase.

We bought this for our border aussie when she was a 10lb puppy. Shes 35lbs now and this still works great. the build quality seems fair for the price and she has not destroyed it. However I will admit I do not have a dog from hell so that may be a factor for others who are disappointed.The thing I really like about this is that is collapses and folds down for easy transporting. Easy to set up and only takes seconds. We have never come close to this collapsing unintentionally simply because of the way it locks into itself to remain sturdy.

Ordered this to put in a soft sided pet carrier for my cat, see pic of the pad in the crate below. The material is soft and plush. It was the perfect size and added some softness to the hard foam mat that came with the crate. I left the crate on the floor for my cat to explore for a few days and she seems to like the mat and crate. I would purchase again and recommend to a friend.

Worked perfect in my 13 x 18 kennel. We took out the plastic crate and are using this as my dog constantly tried to chew at the plastic crate. She uses this without issue, I wish I could say the same for the bed/topper we placed on top of this (which was from the same manufacturer) - as it was immediately tore into by my 5 pound terrorizing Maltese.I would not recommend this as the only bedding you use for your dog if their comfort is a concern as it is really thin. I view it more as a liner/base than an actual dog bed. It is probably about 1/4th of an inch thick.

Lightweight and launders well. We use at our Cat Rescue center where bedding is washed often. Cats snuggle up on the soft mats and seem to appreciate. The beds get muddy with red dirt that stains. These are perfect. You can't see the red dirt...and they are holding up to frequent laundering. Do not seem to hold water so work well in areas that do get splash back in heavy rains.

This is a soft, fluffy, well--made mat for my kitty's new carrier (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007IOYIE/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_6?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER), and it fits perfectly inside. He hasn't used it yet, but I know it'll feel much better on his toes than the carrier's bare vinyl floor. For the price, you can't beat it. It doesn't have velcro strips underneath, just a loop at one end, so if needed, I'll buy some strips and apply them.Update: Well, my boy loves this mat and settles right down into it when we go to the vet. It washed up quite well in the machine (air dried after) when my kitty let go of his breakfast on the way back from the vet. Poor thing. Once I scraped off the mess, I threw it into the washing machine, and it was good as new once it dried. I'm adding a star to my previous 4-star review. Great product!

I bought two of these Sleeper beds. I must say they have exceeded our expectations and our two cats, love them. The Precision Pet 3000 Sleeper Bed is, actually, a comfy-fury mat, with little padding with a non-skid backing. That is why I bought them. We have used blankets on the top of the backs of our leather/pleather couch & loveseat, in the past, to protect them from our cats claws, and to give them a comfy-warm place to lay. But, the blankets were sliding off while they were laying on them, and they would fall off the couch. These "Sleeper Beds" are perfect for on top of our couches, they do not slide off and our furniture is protected. We got the 30"x19" inch size. The 30" length is perfect to fit our 16 pound, big boned, mane coon/tabby, when he is all stretched out. I do wish they were a bit narrower, as they hang over the sides of the couch, as they are 19 inches wide and are a bit stiff. But, I know the mats were made to fit into pet carriers and to go onto couch cushions, not necessarily on top of the back of a couch. I'm thinking of cutting them in half and sewing some bias tape onto the cut sides, to finish them off. But, they work, as is, and have become more supple with a few washes and tend to hang a bit more and wrap around the back of the couch, a bit better. Our cats love them and now, wherever we place them, is the new coveted spot in the house, for them to lay. That may change when summer hot weather hits. But, for now, with any temp lower than 65 degrees, they want their Precision Pet 3000 Sleeper Beds. They love them and so do we. I'm so glad I bought two.

This sleeper is perfect! I bought a new carrier for our dog and wanted to find a cushion to put in it (1-to make him comfortable & 2-to keep him from sliding around). Normal pet beds are far too bulky to fit in small carriers, and I didn't think a thin flannel baby blanket was comfortable enough so I was looking for something in between. Someone said it was more like a rug, and I had pictured maybe a bath rug or a cotton throw, but it isn't like that at all. It's actually very soft and padded but still thin enough that your doggie doesn't feel smushed in his carrier.I bought the smallest size (18x13), which is about an inch too big all around to fit perfectly in our small Marchiori carrier (size 19.5 x 13), but it's still close enough to perfect for me. Heck, you can't buy a towel or bath rug for less than the price of this sleeper pad. Highly recommended!

The tray was warped the first time any water was spilled onto it. I wish there was an option to purchase a divider. Sturdier if you use zip ties to strengthen the corners of all sides.

Sturdy fold-up crate works just as advertised. Our 40 lb shar pei has plenty of room and uses it as her bedroom (with a padded liner, of course). Seems like an excellent value for the money.

Perfect size and easy to assemble. Bottom tray slides out easily for cleaning and then it locks back into place.

A little out of shape, but the wires can be bent to fit. I dislike that the door cant be adjusted to what side it opens up

Like this cage, I only wish it were a tad heavier. Our puppy only weighs five pounds and can drag this thing across the floor. I've weighted it down myself sine then. Also the extra 'wall' doesn't really fit ideally to make the crate smaller, dog got stuck under it pretty easily. All in all I would say this was a great buy for the price.

My dog absolutely hates being confined and is very smart at breaking out. I have attached an old leash clasp to the part of the door that slides to open so he cannot get out that way. After 2 months he broke one of the bars but I do not think it is because the cage is bad - like I said he is VERY smart. I had to have a panel welded in on the front to thwart his escape attempts and now he cannot get out.

Pretty flat, not much too it. But it's soft so the dog likes it ok enough

My wifes sorry trash dachshund still found a way to destroy this within a few days, but that's her problem, not mine.

These were good, until my dogs tore them up! They fit nicely in their large crates but by day 2 they had torn them apart. Back to towels in the crates for the pups.

This is surprisingly wonderful and practical. I have a lap dog, and sometimes I like to sit crosslegged in chairs. He isn't so keen on that. This little mat creates a perfect little space for him.

Perfect size for my cats to sleep on and protect my wood furniture. I will be buying another one as one cat took it over and won't let the others on it.

I try to buy dog mats for my Pug because he will EAT the stuffing out of regular beds.I saw this and I was happy to see it looked comfty and with very little stuffing.I thought the 18" x 13" was going to fit my puppy but rather looks like it is for teacup dogs, toy breeds or Chihuahuas.I put it outside in the terrace and eventually my dog went to investigate the strange object.He liked it and doesn't chew on it but eventually you need to remember you are not purchasing something fancy or stylish.But for the purpose I bought it ... I'M DEFINITELLY HAPPY :)

had some areas that were bent out of shape and was difficult to put together due to it.

Cheap purchase, works for my small dog but because its portable and really doesn't lock down solid I wouldn't advise this product for a larger puppy.

The metal has already started bending and it just doesn't hold up well.

Big scratch on my arm from putting it together. After about 10 minutes of filing I thought it would be safe for my dog but it still got him a couple of times getting in and out. I finally think it's smooth enough but someone didn't think this through well. Other than that it seems to be very sturdy and well built.

It gets the job done, but we'll definitely be upgrading to a better quality crate here pretty soon. The lock on the door is fairly flimsy and there's only one as opposed to two on most other crates.

My biggest problem was the instructions for assembly were inside the folded crate, so you had to figure out how to assemble it before you could get the instructions out. Fortunately, not that hard to do. Wish it had a handle on top of the cage to make it easier to move around. Works well for my puppy. He likes the openness of the wire sides and top. The medium sized crate was a lot bigger than I thought it would be. Would be nice if the dimensions were in the item description.

Crate came with minor damages

This cage works perfectly. The problem is in the sloppy manufacturing. The wires used to construct the cage were never ground smooth after they were sheared, leaving sharp edges. When we used the cage my wife and I each cut ourselves several times reaching in and out of the opening. I had to take a file to all the ends of the wires to make this thing safe to use.

The door doesn't close easily, and you have to give it a bit of a push. Also, the lock bar that slides across catches on other wires, making the whole crate door hard to operate in general. Either things were measured wrong, or the frame is bent.Too much of a hassle to return it, so I'm going to grudgingly keep it. You get what you pay for.

My 24 pound dog was able to bend the wires by sticking his snout through. She also escaped once by knocking the entire front panel down, and once again by climbing out through a corner she has managed to pull apart. I would not recommend this for chewers, or strong dogs, or escape artists.

I had been purchasing another brand. I was looking for something similar in quality, but at a lower price. Needless to say, I was quite disappointed. I expected the wire to be of a heavier gauge. Using the work "secure", implied that it would be a stronger crate. I only gave it the second star because I they shipped two double-door crates in place of the single door models that I had ordered. I will have to stick with the other brand for now.

Inexpensive, yes, and quickly delivered... but on the second day, my medium-sized dog managed to bend the cage door inwards and escape by pushing the latch open. This isn't a sturdy wire; it's easily bent by hand -- or determined paw. Not going to help me much if it doesn't actually contain the dog!

Too thin. My dog doesn't care for it.

Description says 4 x 19 x 30. That is incorrect. This mat is maybe a half inch thick! Other than that it seems nice. But not want I thought it would be.

This is a pad, not a bed. It is not plush. The backing is not non-skid. Overall, it is waaaaay overpriced -- you'd be better off going to your local thrift store and buying a used bath mat for a couple of dollars (or, at this price, buy 10 of them).

Sheds and comes apart when dog nests before laying down. lasted 3 wks

This pet bed is okay. It's thin but soft and my pup seems to like it okay. The issue I had with it was when I washed it I discovered that it had hundreds of little bitty balls on the back side of it that flaked off and got all in my washer and then my dryer. I had to vacuum my washer and dryer out three times and also rewash all my laundry that went it after it. There were still some left on the bottom, like another 100ish, so I had to pick each one off into the trash before I could wash it again to avoid having this same issue happen. It seriously looked like I had sesame seeds poured all over my loads following this and all in my washer and dryer. Highly frustrating and no I wouldn't buy it again.

I bought this product just to create a bit of comfort inside of my dogs crate. Well it lasted perhaps one day because she destroyed it. I was hoping the product would be more durable and would last longer. Also it was not as padded as I would have liked it to be its about as padded as an oven mitt. If your dog likes to chew even if it likes to nibble this is not going to last long. It started to be chewed on because of the tag that is sown into it on the side. Maybe if it did not have that tag my dog would not have torn the poor thing apart. Oh well RIP Dog Sleeper in chocolate. Oh the color was nice actually.

Went to collapse it and the side where the door is snapped off where the metal was connected. I have to move cross country and don't have time to go get a new one so I'm going to have to tie the door on or something. Very dissatisfied.

I was very disappointed in this crate. I have a 25 pound terrier and he was able to bend and break one of the metal bars off of the door. He then got his head stuck in the door. Thankfully I was home and had not left for work yet. :(

A 12 y.o., 21 lb Beagle with bad teeth did this the very first time she used it.'Nuf said.

My dog is quite small, and managed to break the kennel wires, leaving them portruding, really dangerous, low quality

We had this kennel for 4 weeks and our 12 week old 13 pound puppy has been able to bust out twice now. The hinges on the left side of the kennel have stretched and now we are at a loss at what to do to prevent her from escaping when we leave.

Our dog destroyed this the first time she was out in it. Not sturdy like we hoped.

This is the worst dog cushion ever! It has flattened out to nothing after just a few weeks of use. Do not waste your hard-earned money!

Not as advertised

Extremely disappointed with this product. Not only is it paper thin- but it does not match the dimensions. I've come across bath mats that are more cushioned and supportive. Would not recommend this for anyone who has a dog that weighs more than 7lbs.

Dimensions are NOT correct. This item is not 4" thick...only the box it ships in is that thick. The 'bed' itself is about half an inch thick...it's a mat, not a bed or cushioned pad. Sadly, our dog already drooled on it before I had a chance to return it so we're stuck with it. :(

We thought that this was going to be a good purchase until about a week after receiving it when the backing starting coming off in the kennel. The little beads on the back for the non-stick functionality have all basically come off. Many came off in the kennel but mainly came off in the washing machine after 1 wash. (we did not appreciate having to clean up the mess either inside the washing machine) This item no longer works (it slides all over the place) and was a total waste of our money.

This looks wonderful when you get it. However, don't wash it. Hundreds of black plastic dots come off in the washer from the backing. I was very unhappy and threw out both that I bought. I was not worth having to deal with all the dots in the washing machine.
