Why it is listed
iCrate is LifeStages’ little sibling: same fold and divider, thinner wire, one extra small size. Fine for a calm housetraining puppy. Spend up to LifeStages or aluminum if the dog tests doors.

Pros & cons
Pros
- Official iCrate page: seven sizes 18–48 in, single or double door, slide-bolt with locking tip and Paw Block™, rounded side clips, folds flat in seconds, divider, leak-proof pan, rubber feet.
- Widest wire size ladder here (adds an 18 in toy size that LifeStages does not list).
- Same housetraining feature set as LifeStages at the lighter-gauge SKU.
Cons
- MidWest describes LifeStages as thicker wire. iCrate is the lighter crate — worse if you have a strong adolescent.
- $0.00 on the manufacturer page. Not CPS-certified. Not for car crash loads.
- Does not claim USA-made on the product page.
