Read review → Why fit-test a cover?
A cover that gaps at the door is decoration. We measure hem-to-hem against the crates people actually own.
By crate format
Wire, plastic, soft-sided — different problems.
Flaps & doors
We check openings, not just the bag size label.
Wash reality
What survives the machine vs. hangs-to-dry fiction.
Cons, always
Every pick lists where it falls short.
