Very sturdy and thoughtfully designed
So far, I am very pleased with this product, it seems very sturdy and thoughtfully designed. I will update this if I run into any problems, but I am not expecting any.My last two carriers had to be thrown out because they were less carefully made. One could not be properly cleaned, and had to be thrown out after an accident. The other broke by having a rod stick out – luckily it stuck out at me, but it could have just as easily stuck into the carrier without me noticing, which could have been uncomfortable or dangerous for my cat.This one appears to have solved both problems. It can be machine washed, so it should survive an accident. And the denier material is very sturdy, and carefully reinforced. Additionally, the rods providing structure are all tucked into seams on the outside – if a seam ever fails (which seems unlikely in normal use) the rods will poke outside the carrier, it seems impossible for it to be poking my pet without me knowing.I am impressed by the extra room available when the top is collapsed to fit under a plane seat, that was very cleverly done. The very study and removable base means itâs unlikely to tip, but still washable. I like the option to expose the mesh or cover it – the mesh is important if itâs hot, but my cat is calmest when her view is obscured. The mechanism for locking the zippers is easy to use and secure.My small complaints: I would prefer a less plush insert, so thereâs more vertical space. I wish the Velcro attachment on the bottom for the insert used the soft side, so I could choose to remove the padded base, but thatâs easy to replace. I also prefer one over body strap to the two strap system they used, but I cut apart the two straps easily.Iâm really happy with this. I donât mind spending a more for a product that will last longer, and I think thatâs exactly what this is.My cat seems pleased with it, and got in to relax with no coaxing.

Super functional, perfect design
I am going to use it for transatlantic air travel with my cat. This pet carrier is so well designed with attention to a very tiny things. Quality of material used, unique concept of design with flexible rod-based frame accommodating to available space, hard and super light floor cover with soft pad, openings for venting – everything is superb. I have checked several other products available on the market and this one is just perfect for any travel, especially for air travel. I am highly recommending this product, just select the right size for your precious friend.

Great air travel bag for a larger small dog
I got a large sized bag and was nervous that my Chihuahua mix would be considered too big for it and turned away at the airport, but we had no issues whatsoever. My dog is about 15 in at the shoulder and has long legs, but he is lean and only weighs about 15 lbs. We flew on WestJet into Calgary- the agents didn’t even look at him during check in and the bag fit perfectly in a window seat (definitely wouldn’t have fit under the aisle or middle). He can’t stand up fully but can turn around and is comfortable laying down. The bag is overall well made and designed, but with a 16 lb dog it got pretty uncomfortable on my shoulder when carrying him around the airport. Overall a great bag!

Worked well!
Worked great for traveling with 2 kittens on an airplane. Fit under the seat in front on American Airlines. Made well. Sturdy.

High quality bag with some downsides
I did a ton of research on airline compliant pet carriers for my 15 lb pup and this is one of a few I chose. The bag is super high quality and looks quite durable. The bed inside is also probably the most comfortable of the carriers I ordered. It does have flaps on the top you can open for more ventilation. Also the rounded shape plus the strap make it way more ergonomic to carry over your shoulder than the rectangular ones. But I ended up going with another carrier for a few different reasons.The main issue for the large size of the SturdiBag is that my pup is at the limit of fitting comfortably in the the airline compliant dimensions, and because this bag is rounded that meant total space was tighter for him compared to a rectangular bag with similar dimensions. The other issue is that the only opening to the bag is on the front, whereas the carrier I went with also opens on the top. This makes it easier to train your dog to get use to the carrier and also gives you more optionality when using it than the SturdiBag.That said the SturdiBag was more comfortable to carry over my shoulder so if my dog had fit more comfortably I would have definitely gone with it. In the end Iâm going with the Roverlund carrier which also has the benefit of being able to be carried as a backpack.

Very good quality bag, but very expensive

I was looking for a carrier that can fit under the seat on the plane. I bought other brand earlier where the side expands to give more space, but then it was pretty stiff and felt I cannot squeeze that in although it said it will in the description.This one is really flexible and can squeeze down easily, but then it gives plenty of room inside. My pup is 33cm shoulder to toe when standing up (5.4kg), and she can easily stand and turn around inside this X-Large size . It does look pretty big, so am not sure what the impression the airline company will have. The size is not so different from XL to Large, so I might try buying the Large and give this one away. Overall I am satisfied with the product.

I bought 3 different carriers for my two cats, as I need to comply with the airlines because of relocating. I returned them all until I found this gem. This carrier is very roomie and can be squished down to fit under the seat of a plane that has very little room. Most planes are good with 10 inches. Unfortuneatly the aircraft we are on is 8 inches max. The material is great quality and I highly recommend. My cats recommend them also.
