When she hears the rattle of the door hinge She runs for the hills! This little pop-up tent carrier is so cute and the price is very nice! It's works for both of us. As soon as i set it up she went right in. It comes as a small condensed, compact circle that has a elastic band around it with a caution tag. HEED THE CAUTION TAG!! As I was pulling the elastic band off it immediately popped open and flew out of my hands!!! So warning, please do not open directly in front of your face, as it takes off like a shot!! I wear glasses so my eyes would have probably been protected somewhat if it had flown at me. Please don't open around children or pets either as it could be dangerous!! With that said, you just zip it up and it's ready to go. I inspected it thoroughly and the stitching and zipper seemed good and sturdy. My cat is about 9-10 lbs and there was plenty of room in carrier for her, or a fairly small dog. I do wish it had a hard bottom because it sags when you lift your cat in it. I would be afraid to put a heavier cat in it because the bottom is only made of two layers of nylon material. If you look at the bottom of the carrier, there's a hole in the outer layer. For what, I don't know. So I rolled up a small baby blanket and slid it in between the two layers of material and smoothed it out flat, to give it extra strength and padding for my cat. That helped but a hard bottom is better. The windows are made of a material type mesh, so I suppose if you have a cat that likes to bite or has claws, they could rip a hole in the windows, as they aren't made with a heavy fiber. My cat likes to lounge in it occasionally, so I just leave it out for her. The front door has a flap that you can fold aside with velcro so the door stays open all the time for easy access. Makes for a cute cat house! If you don't like the added clutter , just unzip and fold flat for easy storage, as it doesn't take up any space that way. I would not try to contort it back into the circular shape that it came in, or you could get injured trying!! All in all, I like the design, shape and convenience of it, so I would recommend for 10 lb or less animal. Sorry this review was so long but I wanted to give you as much info as possible. Hope it helps. Thanks! Review: Buy it. - I was very skeptical. This carrier perfect for my needs. Very light weight. Can fold it flat for storage. Easy to wipe down. Very cute. Cushioned handles. Lots of air ventilation. Lots of room inside. I have a medium sized adult cat. Zipper works perfect. Ease of axcess. Fantastic price. ## Features - POP-OPEN, COLLAPSIBLE CAT CARRIER FOR TRAVEL – Lightweight soft-sided carrier sets up in seconds and folds flat for easy storage, making it ideal for vet visits, travel, and everyday transport. - BREATHABLE MESH PANELS FOR AIRFLOW & VISIBILITY – Multiple mesh sides provide excellent ventilation and allow cats to see their surroundings, helping reduce stress while on the move. - SECURE ZIPPER DESIGN HELPS PREVENT ESCAPES – Zippers are reinforced with an O-ring closure, adding an extra layer of security to help keep curious cats safely contained. - REMOVABLE INTERNAL WIRES FOR EASY CLEANING – Interior support wires can be removed so the carrier can be cleaned more thoroughly, helping maintain a fresh, comfortable space for your cat. - COMFORTABLE & LIGHTWEIGHT FOR CATS UP TO 15 LBS – Designed to hold cats up to 15 pounds, offering a cozy, enclosed space without excess bulk. - FUN PATTERNED DESIGN – Eye-catching print adds personality while still delivering practical, travel-ready performance. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07D6SSZ7C | | ASIN | B07D6SSZ7C | | Best Sellers Rank | #18,964 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #44 in Cat Soft-Sided Carriers | | Brand Name | SportPet Designs | | Color | Pattern | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (3,174) | | Date First Available | May 15, 2018 | | Date First Available | May 15, 2018 | | Directions | Keep out of reach of children.
