Coolaroo Steel-Framed Elevated Dog Bed

I live in Arizona where my dog does not have the option of laying on cooling, soft grass. The weather is not cool about 7 months of the year and most homes have Xeriscape landscaping so not much grass at all. This bed has enough give in the fabric to make it comfortable for the dog (like a trampoline) yet it provides enough support so the dog is at ease when he lays on it. It rises high enough off the ground to allow air circulation but is low enough that even older or smaller dogs would not have difficulty getting on the bed. The bed is light weight and when someone (perhaps the cat) peed on the bed, it was easy to pick up the bed and wash it off. I would have rated the bed a 5, but putting I live in Arizona where my dog does not have the option of laying on cooling, soft grass.

I have an older amstaff who is constantly shredding expensive dog beds. I thought I'd try an elevated bed for her, thinking it would be harder to destroy. She wouldn't get on it. So we laid her fleece blanket over it. Then she was willing to get in it, but after a couple days she went back to her memory foam beds. Not enough cushion for her old bones. We ended up putting a memory foam dog bed on top of the cot. The bonus here is; she doesn't shred the memory foam bed, because balancing on the cot while trying to destroy the bed is difficult for her. Win-win.

I’m writing this review because I saw a lot of reviews of people saying they got a large for their 40-55 pound dogs and I live in a smaller apartment and the medium says it’s for pets ho to 75 pounds.... I got the medium, my boy is a poodle mix and currently weighs about 45 pounds although he’s got some growing left (he’s about 7 months old). The medium fits him just fine, it’s a good size and I think even when he’s full grown (~55) he’ll still fit on it just fine. It took him a little coaxing to get him to use it but now he’s happy as can be lying on it. None of these photos are him sprawled out, but he is still able to sprawl on it comfortably. Usually he sleeps curled up as in the photos and I’m writing this review because I saw a lot of reviews of people saying they got a large for their 40-55 pound dogs and I live in a smaller apartment and the medium says it’s for pets ho to 75 pounds....

I ordered this bed and it came in 2 days later. I was super excited to put it together and had no problems until I got to the last screw. The last screw that I was trying to screw into the rod wouldn't go in and I eventually realized there was not treading out the inside for it to screw into. My step dad was able to take it to his work and fix it. What if my step dad didn't work at a hose company? I would be returning this because it would be impossible to assemble. The bed was great once the machine threaded the pipe and I could put it together. My dogs and I love it but it was a pain getting here.

I thought these would be great as they are off the ground and would keep our pups cool in the summer. However, putting the bed together is next to impossible. The pads do not fit the base and if you are lucky enough to get it on, the bed is bent and two of the legs don't even touch the ground. We have had 5 different people try to put these together and ended up spending hours trying to get the pad to fit. Connecting three of the legs is okay but you need like 4 people to hold the thing in place to get the last leg to connect and then the screw won't line up because everyone has to pull in a different direction to straighten it out.

My dogs love this bed so much and they lay on it all the time!It took me sitting on it to get them on there at first but now they go on without me.I got the large bed for my 75 lb dogs and it can hold me,both of my dogs,and three of my cats all at once,and it stays steady and supported.They are outside dogs and the tiny holes on the bed material keep them warm and cool at times.Best purchase I have made for my dogs.

My boys love this bed! I can't keep them off it! it was a little difficult to put together, but the final product is phenomenal!! I have bought them so many beds before & my German Shepard/ Border Collie mix really enjoys tearing them up more than he likes lounging on them. But this product definitely has stopped that!

Bought for mainly outdoors and to teach "place". We had it inside to establish "place" and work on training and its still inside because he loves it so much! He goes there willingly when told to do so and also independently throughout the day. He favors this over his regular dog bed! Absolutely recommend.

This bed is IMPOSSIBLE to put together. I order a medium Brunswick Green. Three of the legs can assemble but the pad won’t stretch far enough to attach the fourth screw on the final leg. This is a terribly made product, do not purchase. I have requested a refund through chewy customer service, no response yet.

My dog kept trying to get in my lap while I was relaxing on the porch. I bought this bed and it’s been the best purchase I’ve ever made on Chewy. My pug LOVES this bed. When the weather is nice, he takes all of his toys outside and lays in this outdoor bed. It’s great to see him so happy!
