This unique dog carrier is unlike any other I've ever seen before. The Pet Magasin Hard Cover Pet Carrier folds flat for easy storage and provides 360° ventilation for your pup. Collapsible carriers like this one are ideal for owners who travel frequently and need to pack the carrier away. They are also great for pet parents who don't use a carrier often and want to store it out of the way when not in use.
Size isn't the only thing to consider when shopping for a pet carrier. You should also think about the following questions:
- Will your pet be comfortable?
- Will it be easy to get your pet into the carrier?
- How will you be using the carrier?
The carrier needs to be the right size for your pet and have the right features to meet your needs. The Pet Magasin Hard Cover Pet Carrier definitely has a unique design that piqued my interested. While it looks really cool, I couldn't help but wonder if it would be durable and effective.
Pet Magasin Hard Cover Pet Carrier Review
The first thing that you probably notice about this dog carrier from Pet Magasin is it's interesting design. The top and bottom consist of a hard shell covered with fabric. The middle is a soft piece of materials that is easily folded.
As I demonstrate in my video guide above, the top and bottom attach to the middle section with zippers. If you detach them, the middle section folds up easily and can be stored inside the two outer shells. Then, you can zip the shells together to form a circular case that can be stored easily in a closet.
When it's assembled, the Pet Magasin Hard Cover Pet Carrier measures 17.5″L x 13″H x 14″W. The hard top and bottom are waterproof, which means they are easy to clean if your pup has an accident.
I was pleased to see that this carrier is also equipped with a zipper lock. This prevents your pup from being able to paw at the door and accidentally slide the zipper open from the inside of the carrier. There is also a soft, fleece covered bed that comes with this carrier to keep Fido comfortable.
The Pet Magasin Hard Cover Pet Carrier only weighs 2.2 pounds!
Because it is lightweight and folds flat, this is an ideal pet carrier for traveling. Unfortunately, it is only available in this one size, so it will only be suitable for very small breeds.
I like the mix between a hard and soft carrier. Again, this design is very unique. In fact, it's the only carrier I've ever seen that has soft sides and a hard top and bottom. The hard top and bottom add stability to the carrier, while the soft sides make it more comfortable for your dog.
Keep in mind that this carrier is not going to be a good choice for pets that like to chew or scratch. If your dog tries to escape when he's enclosed in a crate or carrier, you should purchase a hard sided carrier instead.
You can purchase the Pet Magasin Hard Cover Pet Carrier on Amazon for $39.99 (at the time of this review). For a carrier of this size, it's a little bit more expensive than other products. However, I expected the price to be slightly higher due to the uniqueness of this carrier.
