EliteField 3-Door Folding Soft Dog Crate (36in) - Extra Roomy

In this review the EliteField 3-door folding soft dog crate is evaluated as a portable indoor/outdoor pet home designed for dog owners who need a lightweight, roomy option for travel and everyday use. The single biggest reason to buy is the extra interior space compared with typical 36in soft crates, giving taller or growing dogs noticeably more headroom and movement without adding much weight. The crate ships fully assembled so setup and teardown are quick, and the included carrying bag and fleece bed make it travel-ready right away.

Key Features

• Spacious interior: The 36in x 24in x 28in footprint provides an extra 2in width and 4in height over many 36in soft crates, giving dogs more room to stand and turn comfortably.
• Quick setup: The crate is fully assembled and can be set up or folded down in seconds without tools, saving time when moving between home, car, or campsite.
• Durable construction: A steel tubing frame and 600D fabric with hex mesh create a lightweight but sturdy structure that balances ventilation and strength.
• Three access points: Top, front, and side mesh doors increase airflow, light, and flexible access for placing or removing the pet.
• Washable comfort: The removable crate cover and fleece bed are machine washable, making cleanup after travel or accidents straightforward.
• Portable kit: Includes a free carrying bag plus a handle and carrying straps on the crate and bag for multiple transport options.

Who It's For

This soft crate is best for owners who want a portable, lightweight travel crate for road trips, camping, or home use where a hard-sided kennel is unnecessary. It suits medium to large dogs that benefit from slightly taller interior height and owners who value fast tool-free setup and easy storage.

Owners who need a chewproof, heavy-duty metal crate or plan to use the crate for escape-prone dogs should look elsewhere, since some customers reported fabric damage under heavy chewing and the soft-sided design prioritizes portability over extreme bite resistance.

Pros & Cons

Cons

• Soft fabric construction can be vulnerable to persistent chewing and may not suit determined escape artists.
