How is the rail around the top? My dog loves his bag but wears out the sides from standing on them while in the car.

Well my dog only weighs 3 lbs so they are doing fine. I do have to wash it down because of dirty paws but so far so good.

We haven't had a problem with the sides wearing out. Although ours doesn't stand that much on them. She is relaxed and sits or curls up and goes to sleep. Enjoy!

The rail around the top has a wire in it and does not bend very easy my dog doesn't hang over the side, she likes the room she can lay in it nice she goes right in it when we get in the car I had a smaller one for her but she was always getting out of it

There are little plastic tabs on the outside edge of the top support bar (if you put it together correctly). Just make sure the top of the bag and the string are hooked into those, then gently tighten the drawstring to hold it in place. In my experience the middle bag is the *most* secure attachment.

I purchased a separate comfy bed that fits inside the bag at Home Goods, TJ Maxx and it has worked real good for Sparky. He loves it, I keep it in my car and Sparky sleeps most of the time. If you like I can send you a picture, also, I think the extra cushion keeps my doggy a little safer. My dog is around 10 pounds. Everywhere I go, people ask where I purchased my bag, I love it.

I started using mine almost 9 months ago and I use it pretty consistently. It has held up fairly well, however, I've noticed the the loops on the handles attached to the bag are starting to tear. I also attach it to my stroller frequently so that might be why. Overall, it is in good shape still.

I use both. The strap around the seat tube, and the buckles around the seat rails. If you have a tail light on your seat tube, you can put it on the back of the bag. I think it is a great bag!

The sides are firm but not rigid. This bag is great and can fit a pair of sneakers comfortably. Would be a nice addition with paniers too if one is doing overnight biking and camping. In very pleased with it. The only change I'd make is an attachment on the rear for a tail light to a fix.there is a small attachment now but not very good for holding the light in my opinion.

Our poodle has had no issues with riding in the bag. She's not really crazy about wearing her doggles, but otherwise a happy rider!!!

The top of mine has zipper issues. Since I only use it for my 5 pound dogs, it's not a big deal ... but I am very disappointed that the zippers failed the first weekend out.

its fine a little small though ive had it for about 9 months and it still looks good and the dog sits on it all the time =). Ive been looking since I bought it for a bigger one and I found one on west elm sight called the faux mongolian lamb pouf check it out !

The sides have velcro strips that you attach to the wall of your car and the sides are somewhat stiff. We have 3 Bulldogs and they are all over the back area - so far no issues with the sides staying up. We feel it's been a great investment.

A bit- the cover in my car covers the vents in the back, so I have to adjust the angle on the front vents and crack the windows- especially after daycare or running in the park. There are WAY more positives to it though- it's still holding up really well!

Mine has held up. It gets really squeezed when in its bag. It takes a little while for it to bounce back to its shape but always has.

The bag has rigid sides and bottom and covered by nylon, it is not heavily padded.I have used it several times and store soft items ( jackets, ggloves, etc.) At the bottom to protect any sensitive cargo with no issues.

Do you have front and rear bars? Basically you should have something to keep this cargo bag in place; otherwise it's going to slide around on your roof and that could have bad consequences. I read in a review where someone ran the straps through the door openings and across the inside roof liner, but I'd be worried about that setup since it doesn't prevent sliding around and shifting. There are bags made to secure to roofs without racks. I'd look for one of those if you don't have anything on your roof.

It is a little bit of a headache. I have two dogs,a twelve year old lab and a 3 year old malamute. The lab has a really hard time and the malamute is able to squeak through. The rear window is pretty easy to remove and replace if that is a concern though. Over all the top is much better than the stock top that come with jeeps. I really think jeep should make this top a standard option as it just seems to fit better. My only disappointment is the top does not fold down.

I've had mine for two years. Travel at least 4 days a week with my 37lb dog over that time, more in the summer. Just took it out to clean for summer and it is finally showing wear through just in the place that my dog's front feet are where she stands while we are moving. I would say that I definitely got value out of it.

Only if it is allowed that you can carry him. It is too flimsy to stand alone if you have to place your dog under your seat. The whole bag is pretty much made of nylon. Your body is what makes it hold upright.
