The basket gets 2 stars for design only! I had to buy a mount for over the wheel because even the empty basket sat on the front wheel. Once I spent £20 on the mount the basket was sturdy enough but it is not a good quality wicker and just tightening the cheap plastic straps on it snapped some of the wicker. Stronger better straps and better quality wicker (or even plastic) would have got it 5 stars as I use it to take the cats to the vet quite often and also use it to put my shopping in.

The quality of the basket is why I gave 2 stars, unfortunately, my satisfaction ends there. The handles that attach which slide into the bike handles are in need of an extra harness or a bottle mount as it's not strong enough to hold a 3.5kg dog without getting a dent. The second time I used this, the basket slipped & flipped onto the floor with my dog inside! Also disappointed with the Yodel! They're known for terrible delivery service. They didn't deliver it to my door or even a safe place.

I bought this for my puppy as I wanted to be able to get her out and about without having to rely on the car It fitted 'OK' to the front of the bicycle but I found it better to fit on the rear with some very good strong cable ties as it's a more stable part of the bike and as I have an 'e' bike I don't have the standard front, it's great this way and the pup seems to enjoy her outings!

My dog is Chihuahua cross Pom and she fits in this although only faceing side wards with comfortable gap and she can lay down which is great as she’s more wide than long. I would recommend using cable ties and getting a basket rack for extra support off eBay or amazon as if your dogs a little bit heavier you wanna trust that it will hold

I am completely satisfied with this basket. I find it difficult to manoeuvre the bike with the basket and dog on the front, so I've attached it to the rear luggage rack with cable ties.

A really beautiful basket, my dog is 7kg and fits perfectly. It's easy to install and great quality.
