I bought this to keep my cats in the very back of my Tahoe when moving across country. It was very difficult to install. I used pipe insulation (think hollow pool noodle) to protect the ceiling upholstery. Even though the screen was snuggly fitted to the contours of my truck, 2 cats somehow got past it. It might work to keep smaller dogs contained - a large dog would defeat it.

Works so well. I still have it set up in the back of my car.

Anytime, I have to go and take the cats. They seem fine with it and can’t get through.

I was so excited to find this product. Then it arrived. First it is a bit confusing to assemble. If you designed this thing it makes sense. If you are the customer not so. The plastic clamps are weak and don’t hold together. One of my dogs bumped into the assembled barrier only to have the thing pop loose and fall to pieces. The other remarkably poor thing is the legs. If they screwed into the poles that hold the thing up it would be better. If there was away other than friction for it to stand up then perhaps it would work better. I was driving along and heard a crash and found the thing in pieces on the floor. There is nothing to hold the unit in place except friction. This allows it to vibrate loose and somehow the clamps let go. I don’t know how others made this thing work. I can’t get it to hold together past getting it in place. I will ask Chewy for a refund.

Bought this to act as a divider for my 2012 Subaru Forester on a cross-country trip I took with my cat. I wanted to give my cat the ability to freely explore the back of my car without risking her getting up and under my brakes. Unfortunately the gaps between the edges of this don't quite stop a cat sneaking through without modification. I am aware this was designed more for dog use so that's not really criticism of the device itself. Even so, I was still able to create a successful barrier by filling any gaps with cardboard and blankets. It works great once it's together but it's admittedly a bit difficult to assemble and you can easily end up pinching your fingers between the metal legs and the actual grating which HURTS. I recommend it for long-term use but it might be a bit cumbersome for someone who wants to quickly put up/take down a barrier relatively frequently.

Disappointing

Not very stable/sturdy. Dog was able to pull it down. Perhaps this would work well for a dog that is calmer in the car.

We have a St Bernard that wants to be a lap dog so we needed a partition to keep her in the back seat. This barrier works as long as you have something to cover the the bottom part. we put it behind the front seats. I added parts from a large playpen fencing to the bottom. Also, connecting it is sketchy. It works in my van because I could zip tie it to the handles in the back. Don't know how it will work in our truck. The pieces to keep the grates together are crappy. I used zip ties. Much easier to work with and sturdier. Some of the parts were incorrect or missing. But with some customization it works.
