It took a long time to arrive but worth the wait, especially as I wasn't required to pick it up at the border! Best crates ever, they will last a life time. This is the second time I purchased Variocrates as I changed vehicles and needed smaller creates than I had. They hold their value, unlike plastic crates.

I purchased a MIM crate, cover, leash hooks & bowl. All items are of superior quality. Dogs love the crate, love that they are safe. Customer service was terrific. Good experience all around! Thank you!

If you're buying the kennel you might as well get the bumper protector - it's very well made!

MIM Safe Variocage Single

Wheeled trolley for collapsible crates

After making our first flight to Montreal, my satisfaction for the crate is still at a high level. There was a bit of a hiccup departing from Calgary as the staff didn't want the wheels placed on top of the crate. ...however when departing from Montreal there were no issues whatsoever. I loved that I was able to lock the crate with the key. Actually NUMEROUS people including the airline staff commented on how safe it looked and felt. As a faster check-in tip, I suggest having the weight written down ahead of time to avoid going to the scale..especially in Calgary as it's higher above the ground....the picture here shows Lazer waiting to be picked up on our way back....he wasn't stressed coming out of the crate when we arrived in Montreal and surely didn't seem to worry about getting back in on our way back. I attended a show while vacationing and people took pictures of the crate and said they were planning on looking into one as well....heck even my mom's cat wanted to claim it!

Very nice people and great crates. I recently bought a large stationary crate . I am very happy with it. The guys at K&Js were super friendly and helpful when I picked up the crate . They also helped me strap it down in my new Jeep. I recommend K&J to everybody who has car safety in mind for their K9 family members .

Very easy to deal with K&J. Sizing was perfect. The cage works like a charm. It was more difficult to assemble than expected, but not too bad. Great overall!

My dog LOVES this crate and is very eager to spend time in it. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is that the screws tend to come loose randomly, and from a safety standpoint it’s a concern. I check them regularly to ensure they are good.
I love this crate!

I have a German shepherd mix who escaped the standard wire cage and injured herself doing so. Since getting this beautiful crate she is safely secured while I am out of the house. I got the XL and my girl has plenty of room to lay down and turn around. Very happy with my purchase.

Love this crate so much I’m going to surprise my mom with one

Great product, love assembly with rivets. However instructions are lacking and if you rivet wrong stuff together you have to drill them out! Still highly recommend, just be careful.

Pros: Beautiful design, strong, smooth locking mechanism, turnaround time was reasonable for the order.

Cons: some corners were bent during shipping that we had to hammer out, the rivet gun provided was really hard to use so we had to get our own, the instructions for the crate were very vague and since we had to assemble the crate ourselves that was an issue.

My dog is not sound sensitive so this isn't an issue for us, but the bottom pan of the crate tends to make a loud metal popping sound depending on the dog's weight distribution in the crate, additionally the handles on the top of the crate are spring-loaded and snap back against the crate of you let go abruptly making a very loud metal pop sound in the crate.

Well built and smooth rolling

Customer service was fantastic exec before I ordered, and then the crate came quickly, super easy to set up, very nice, and my dog immediately wanted to investigate, can't wait to take it travelling!

We pre-ordered our crate on sale and it came faster than expected. It came very well packaged and set up easily. The back rail was too long, so I took a video and photos to email the company. I was completely surprised to get a phone call from the owner who answered all my questions and popped the correct piece in the mail with a return label that same day. The crate itself is fantastic. Everything is so well thought of and the material is extremely durable quality. My dog fits comfortably (75 lbs, German Shepherd female) in the large. Wish I had bought a crate like this years ago, we will never go back to flimsy wire or plastic crates!

We received our crate in excellent order and our Donnie’s loves-it. We are happy to know he is secure and safe….

We ordered a K&J Collapsable Crate after our Corso puppy got her teeth and jaws caught in a standard wire kennel. She was okay but we knew we needed a safer option for her so we ordered a Canadian made crate. It arrived within a week of ordering. Exceptional quality, indestructible, military grade and built to withstand wear and tear all while keeping your dog secure and giving owners peace of mind.

I love this trolley system! I love how it is easy to get on and off the crate and how it stores on top of the crate for travel. This is the best trolley system I have ever used!!

After having our variocage for a few weeks we are very satisfied. The quality of the cage is high. It was easy to put together. The dogs are safer inside our vehicle..
The folks at KJ are also incredibly professional. Very responsive to emails and always friendly and helpful.
Would not hesitate to purchase products in the future from them.

Perfect for traveling with pets. I like that it can extend to make room for larger dogs.

I bought the size large in the gorgeous pink colour for my husky girl who loves to break out of crates. She has met her match for sure…
The team is so helpful, responsive over email, and even talked through options with me over the phone. Can’t recommend them enough!

Buy it right, buy it once. This is the only crate your dog will need in his lifetime. Great value for money. Added bonus, it looks great in the house. I got the teal blue. Beautiful.

I was looking for something well-made and stylish for my 9 month old GSP puppy. He does really well in more enclosed crates anxiety-wise and his crate is his everyday hangout spot. It would be a permanent fixture in our home but it mattered to me that I could disassemble and pack the same crate to use anywhere I brought him. The colour I wanted wasn't in stock, so I pre-ordered and waited but it didn't take long to receive, even all the way over in Ontario.

I considered buying a competitor crate that looked similar but I'm glad I didn't. The customer service I received from K&J was amazing, they replied to my emails within the same day and when I received the crate I realized that they truly take pride in building a solid, practical product thats's built to last. That kind of workmanship is rare to find these days as everything is made cheap and disposable.

Great product, great Canadian company. My pup is happy in his XL collapsible crate and something so practical will make it easy for me to bring him many places and he can still have his calm spot. I probably could have gone with the Large size, but the extra room won't hurt.

Like my vet says.. GSPs are not for the faint of heart.(not our first one) He loves it already and it'll help ensure that his calm demeanor continues!

It was a pleasure doing business with K & J. The box is very well built and exactly what I was looking for. I like a company that you can actually communicate with by phone!!! They were always polite and helpful. I would recommend them any time.
