Rank #7 in Best Dog Crate 2026: The Inch Is Not a Measurement
Large 36 Inch Dog Crate with 2 Doors and Removable Tray, Folding Metal
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
This 36-inch metal crate costs £36.99 and is rated 4.5 stars from 522 ratings, with two doors, a removable tray and a folding frame.
It takes seventh because the sample is thin but the reviews are specific — one owner bought it to replace a fabric crate their dog had destroyed, which is the clearest statement here of why a wire crate is the one you leave a dog in.
