Overview
This is a folding metal wire dog crate from MidWest's New World line, sized for large breeds between 71 and 90 pounds. It ships with a removable leak-proof tray and a secure latch, and it folds flat for storage or transport.
The New World crate name covers both single and double door builds, but this listing is the single door black version, so check the door count before ordering if you need access from two sides. At 42 by 28 by 31 inches it suits large dogs but not giants, and the fold-flat frame matters more once you need to move or store it seasonally.
- 42L x 28W x 31H inches
- Rated for dogs 71-90 lbs
- 30 lbs, metal wire construction
- Black finish, single door
Who it's for
Owners with a large adult dog in the 71 to 90 pound range who want a crate for house training, travel, or containment when unsupervised. Less suited to giant breeds near or above the top of that weight range, who would need a larger size instead.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Removable leak-proof tray for easy cleanup
- Folds flat for storage or travel
- Secure latch built for large dogs
- 1-year manufacturer warranty included
- Single door limits placement options
- Not sized for giant breeds over 90 lbs
Performance notes
The crate folds down for storage and transport, and the removable tray simplifies cleanup after accidents. The secure latch is meant to keep a determined large dog from pushing the door open, and the single door layout sets the entry point on one side only.
