Our take on the Soft Kennel

The Maelson Soft Kennel is a foldable fabric crate built on a heavy-duty steel frame, with tight-weave mesh doors on the front, top and side and roll-down blinds on the sides and rear. A waterproof base, washable padded cushion and in-car safety straps make it work both at home and in a vehicle. It suits owners who want a lighter, softer-sided alternative to a rigid plastic or wire crate, though the fabric walls offer less chew resistance than metal. Rounded reinforced corners protect car interiors and furniture.

About the Soft Kennel

The Maelson Soft Kennel is a foldable dog crate for use at home or in a vehicle. It has a heavy-duty inner steel frame and a waterproof base. It has three openings, on the front, top and side. The frame has no protruding or sharp elements, and the corners are reinforced and rounded to protect furnishings and car interiors.

The doors and windows use tight-weave reinforced nylon mesh. Roll-down blinds on the rear window, side door and opposite side window can close out the surroundings. The front door has no blind, so air can circulate at all times. Velcro patches at the top of the front door let you attach a separate piece of fabric to cover it for short periods.

Nylon loops on the top and nylon straps on the bottom secure the kennel on a rear seat, or in the trunk using the vehicle's tethering points and bungee straps. The bungee straps are not supplied. A padded inner cushion is included. The nylon cover and the cushion liner are both machine washable.

Questions and answers

Is the Soft Kennel safe to use in a car?
It has straps that secure the kennel with a seat belt, and the steel frame keeps its shape. It is not a crash-tested carrier, so a crash-tested harness or hard crate is safer in a serious impact.
Can my dog chew through the mesh?
The mesh is tight-weave and strong, but it is fabric. A determined chewer or a dog that scratches at doors can damage it, so it suits dogs already comfortable in a crate.
How do I clean it?
The inner cushion is washable, and the waterproof base wipes clean. Replacement fabric covers and cushions are sold as accessories if the shell gets damaged.
Does it fold flat?
Yes. The frame folds down for storage or transport, which is the main advantage over a rigid plastic crate.
What comes in the box?
The kennel with its steel frame, the padded inner cushion and the in-car safety straps. Deluxe cushions and lounge mats are sold separately.
Where is the Soft Kennel cheapest?
At SnowPaw Store, for $127.14, as of our latest check.
