Why it matters
Kurgo's barrier hangs behind the front seats to block access to the front. Integrated horizontal and vertical bars keep it from sagging, and the low-profile design works with fixed or removable headrests.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- Back-seat riders
- Most cars

Look elsewhere if
