MidWest Floor Grid for Dogs FG30B - Elevated, Easy Clean

In this review the MidWest Floor Grid for Dogs FG30B is evaluated for owners of medium metal crates and medium puppy breeds who want an elevated, hygienic surface. The bottom line: it is a simple, durable vinyl-coated grid that keeps paws off messes and pairs with a leak-proof pan to make cleaning faster. For anyone using compatible MidWest models the floor grid provides clear functional value as a crate accessory; the review focuses on fit, comfort for paws, and how well it works for crate training and cleanliness.

Key Features

• Fits specific crates: Designed to fit MidWest iCrate 1530 and 1530DD, Contour 830 and 830DD, Ovation 1930 and 1930DD and similar medium models, ensuring a correct fit for those models.
• Elevated design: The grid sits above the leak-proof pan so pets stay elevated and paws remain out of waste, improving hygiene inside the crate.
• Durable vinyl coating: The 1/2-in spacing vinyl coated metal grid resists wear and is comfortable on a dog's paws while providing longevity.
• Easy cleaning: When a pet soils the crate the pan below catches messes and slides out for quick, hygienic cleaning without removing the grid.
• Appropriate dimensions: At 28.5L x 20.4W x 1.1H in the grid fits medium metal crates and provides full coverage where specified.
• Manufacturer support: Includes a 1-Year Manufacturer's Warranty and MidWest customer service contact for sizing questions.

Who It's For

The floor grid is best for owners of medium dog crates who use MidWest iCrate, Contour, Ovation, New World B30, or Lifestages 1630 series crates and want to keep a puppy or small dog elevated and cleaner during crate time. It is especially useful for crate training, for pets that occasionally soil their space, and for households that prioritize easy maintenance.

Owners of non-standard or custom-sized crates should double-check measurements before buying, and very large breeds or owners seeking a soft bedding surface should look elsewhere, since the grid is a rigid elevated grate intended to work with a pan rather than replace bedding.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Fits designated MidWest crate models precisely, making installation straightforward for those crates.
• Keeps dogs elevated above messes and pairs with a leak-proof pan for easy cleanup.
• Vinyl-coated 1/2-in grid is comfortable on paws and resists corrosion for longer life.
• Backed by a 1-Year Manufacturer's Warranty and accessible customer service for sizing help.

Cons

• Some customers report width can be tight or slightly large depending on crate tolerances, so measurements are important.
• Not a substitute for bedding; it is a rigid grid intended to work with a pan rather than provide extra padding.

Specifications

Our Verdict

The MidWest floor grid is a practical, value-oriented accessory for owners of compatible medium metal crates who need a hygienic elevated surface during crate time.

Measure your crate first, but for the intended MidWest models this grid is a worthwhile addition that simplifies maintenance and supports crate training.
