Highlighted Reviews

— Patie

"Quanah loves to be in our car but we knew we had to put his safety foremost. He jumps all around front/back, he doesn't care. His mom and dad thought this product would keep him safe and it does! Q isn't too happy but he will grow to love it like mom and dad!"

— Paige

"It broke the first day we had it. My dog put her paw on it, in an attempt to push it, and the bungee cord ripped right off and it fell allowing her to come right up to the front seat."

Bottom Line

A good and budget friendly option, for keeping pets in the back seat, but be wary of durability issues and limitations with very active or persistent pets, which leaves hesitation to recommend it to all pet owners.
