The stitching immediately came apart after my dog put his weight on the top. Would work well for a lighter weight dog though.

Keeps our large dogs in the backseat
5 out of 5 stars
Ken E - 1 month ago
originally posted on ExpertVoice.com
Anytime we travel with our dogs two of the three have a penchant for jumping in the front seat. This product has done a great job keeping our large husky/German shepherd in the back. We have a King Charles Cavalier who would also constantly try to jump out of the backseat and on our laps in the front. This kept him in the back while we drove. However, he figured out that he could jump over it, so when we're parked somewhere and leave the three of them in the car he ends up in the front. I'd still recommend this product though, especially if you have larger dogs. The mesh still allows them to see out the front window if they're curious where we're headed. There is also mesh in front of the rear vents so they still get cool or warm air in the back.

My dog chewed through one of the straps on day one so it's now useless. Wouldn't recommend.
1 reply from Kurgo® Product Support team - 3 months ago
We are so sorry to hear your dog chewed through one of those straps, Stuart. It is important to mention that while we stand by the durability of our products, there are few things that can withstand the bite strength of most dogs, as they have been known to even chew through things like wire crates. Our Backseat Barrier is no exception to this. If your pup is prone to chewing, we highly recommend redirecting chewing behaviors with something like a chew toy during your travels, or even using a bitter apple spray on the barrier straps to help deter chewing. While chew damage is not typically covered under warranty, we are happy to check on the replacement options available for you! When you can, please reach out to our team via phone Monday - Friday 8AM - 7PM EST or via our Live Chat Support Monday - Friday 9AM - 9PM EST here - https://www.kurgo.com/contact-us

I’ve had this backseat barrier 4 months. It’s too high and blocks my view when backing. I also was uneasy about hooking the bottom of it to the underside of my power seats

We're sorry to hear this barrier was not to your preferences! We would love to speak with you about this directly to see if a hammock may be a better fit for your needs. Please reach out to us!

Almost perfect! Still not long enough for RVs. So have to use a baby gate for bottom. It's just right with DRing and straps , but need to offer various lengths

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great for my RAV4. I have a lab mix and he loves to try and get into the passenger seat from the backseat while driving, so this was a great deal for us! Good quality, easy to install, and does its job!

Thank you for your review, Alex! We appreciate you sharing your feedback on the Backseat Barrier and are happy to hear it has been working well in keeping your Lab in the backseat.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love taking my dogs for rides in the car, and they love it too. It's always great seeing their big, happy faces. BUT....I am not a fan of them jumping between the front and back seats. It's both a distraction and not safe. This provides a great block to keep them confined to the rear seat and takes that risk away. The extra pouches for storage are amazing as well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got the backseat barrier last month and installed it with ease! Put in in my Subaru Outback and it is a lifesaver. No more time spending trying to keep my dog from jumping on the center console. High quality materials and I’m sure it will last a long while. Looks good too. The pockets are convenient for storing nick knacks and the barrier is easy to remove when you don’t need it Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WOW WOW... this backseat barrier is so well made and works so well. Coolest car accessory ever. Our doodle loves to move from back seat to front seat area and this is the ticket to keep that from happening. (Much safer especially for the driver) all the built in pockets are great for organization and keeping things off the floor board.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have dogs who love to try and get in the front while we are on vacation, so this product really helps keeping them in the back and out of our food and drinks. They are large dogs so are not able to climb over the seats or this barrier. Also holds their leashes and toys.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is easy to install and my very destructive German shepherds couldn't get through it. I love the pockets they work well to hold things like leashes and clean up bags so have some everywhere we go. The black color also looks really nice and sleek.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish I would have gotten this years ago! This is a perfect compromise for dogs who love to ride in the car, if you don’t want them in the front or you don’t want to dirty your whole car! It’s quality made and durable, easy to install and works great. It looks nice and has a universal fit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such a good idea for my dogs. My husband and I take our dogs with us when we go out and they are always trying to jump up front with us. This is perfect. I can put their toys, treats and water bottle in the holders and they stay put. And the screen allows my dogs to still see us. Was easy to install.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This barrier is amazing both of my dogs have anxiety while driving and like to walk around the vehicle. The barrier provides much needed safety while driving as well as helping their anxiety because they lay down in the backseat. The storage on the barrier is a wonderful benefit! I highly recommend!

This is a well made barrier but it just didn't work for our van (Nissan Quest) or dog. It was easy to install but due to the contour of our seats there was enough room for our dog, who is part rat terrier, and she was able to squeeze her way through the gap between the barrier and the seats.

We are sorry to hear the Backseat Barrier did not meet your expectations, Wendy. Your feedback is appreciated and we will keep the details you have mentioned here in mind for any future revisions to the product. Since your dog is climbing over both the seat cover and the barrier, it might be most beneficial to use a safety harness to restrain your dog while he/she is in the car. If you have any further questions or concerns about this product, please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly at 1-877-847-3868. We are always happy to help!

As a professional petsitter, I've had and used scores of Kurgo products and I swear by the brand. As for the backseat barrier, I wish it was either reversable or had the giant pocket on both sides. I have a Jeep Wrangler, which are notoriously challenged with front seat area storage space. I installed the barrier "backwards" so the pocket was more easily accessible for me, the one who makes the car payment. It's not the easiest to do and turns out a little wonky but I made it work :) Love my Kurgo gear!
