Thule Allax Dog Crate S

The Thule Allax Dog Crate S is an aluminum vehicle crate for transporting dogs in a car trunk. Thule lists a built-in lock, an emergency escape hatch, an adjustable depth and a gas-damped door, but the listing gives conflicting dimensions that should be checked against your vehicle before purchase.

Pros and cons

Pros

Adjustable depth gives some flexibility when fitting the crate in a trunk.
The lock, escape hatch and gas-damped door address access and door handling during vehicle use.
Aluminum construction is specified, and the manufacturer describes front and rear crash testing.

Cons

The manufacturer specifies trunk use only, so this is not suited to a truck bed or back-seat installation.

Aggregate customer ratings lean positive overall, but a noticeable one-star share makes the picture less uniform. With no written review summary provided, the ratings do not explain why customers were satisfied or dissatisfied. Buyers should weigh that limited signal against their own fit requirements, especially given the listing's conflicting dimensions.
