Durability Disappointment August 31, 2010 Shrek I received this product the first of July and at first was very pleased with the item. It was plenty big for my chihuahua and installation was a breeze. The problem I ran into was the durability of the product. In less than 2 months the straps that hold the front part of the carrier disintegrated and broke. A slight tug on the strap and you could break off a piece. My dog enjoys the seat so much, that I'm not going to return it but instead put new straps for the front of the seat.
I'm not sure if others have had this problem or whether the fact that I live on the Big Island of Hawaii has an effect on the straps deteriorating.
I have no complaints with Amazon and do most of my shopping with them. When they say shipping is free they mean it, even if you live in Hawaii or Alaska.
Do Not Buy! POOR Quality August 21, 2010 Ruth K Blackwell I returned these as they are poor quality. No padding around the top of them so if you do have to stop suddenly the dog can be hurt by the metal bars around the top. These were so cheaply made - if you are going to use this type of seat get one with padding around top. They also do not give the dog a nice area to lay down in it's too small and confined.
Purchased the Top Paw Booster seat instead from Petsmart ($59.99 each - I needed 2). It even comes with a food / water bowl that attaches to the front. Is very sturdy and is the perfect height for the Chihuahua's to see out the window while riding. They love to ride! I do suggest that anyone who uses a car seat or even takes their dogs ( any breed) in the car that you purchase the padded harness which attaches either with a clip or you can run the seat belt thru the straps.
NEVER use their collar to attach them to a car seat, seat belt, or even in a doggie handbag you will snap their neck. This is just common sense. Here is the one I use :Solvit 62294 Pet Vehicle Safety Harness, Small. The dogs now sit down and help get in their harness as they know it means "car ride". The Top Paw Booster seat can be used in all vehicles with a seat belt (does not need a head rest to attach to). I even has a storage compartment under the seat and has a nice padded place for them to rest on. I did have the same problem as others with this seat as it does collapse if you use the legs to raise it up but I found that either using a pillow between the legs or just not raising them works perfectly (in my little Focus Wagon there is no need to raise the legs as the dogs sit high enough to look out.)
I have seen the Top Paw Booster Seats on Ebay but currently they are all out of stock - they were the same price as PetSmart.
With the dogs secure and no longer stuck in the kennel in the back they are happy little pups.
Kyjen Outward Hound Booster Seat August 16, 2010 Donna Grabany Seems to be working well, keeps my puppy safe--He wants to be up where he can see out and he is. He tried to get out the first few times but it does snap onto his harness so he couldn't get completely out of it. I just wish it would support more than 30 lbs. He's a lab and will outgrow quickly.
Measure your dog first! July 28, 2010 Mikey's Keeper The small is too short for my pet to lie down in, although he is only 9 pounds. The straps on the front rub his ears when he looks out the window or moves around. It tilts too much and bunches up where it rests on the seat back. The one zipper pocket is nice (three advertised) The exchange policy is ridiculous....the company will call you within 1 to 2 business to set up the exchange, and then will ship the replacement once they have received the unwanted item back! I ordered this item for a 9 hour car trip coming up this weekend. Disappointed! Poor customer service and not great marketing strategy!
For Toy Breeds Only! July 28, 2010 Zoe Bush I purchased two of these seats and was most disappointed as my Shihs' were too large even though they weigh less than the 20 pounds stated. I dreaded the thought of having to return but Amazon made that very easy.
