Frisco Steel-Framed Elevated Dog Bed

First off... for the price this bed is pretty great. The fabric is canvas like but breathable, the metal supports I wouldn’t trust with a lot of weight or my dog jumping on and off of it long term, but for 20$ that’s cheaper than the fluffy beds Bilbo destroys within a week whenever we have tried a soft bed with him. Bilbo doesn’t show any interest in even trying to chew on this bed. The bed does flex and contort when I move it and I have to push down on both ends after moving it to get it to lay flat (screws are as tight as they will go so that isn’t the issue), I am thinking that this issue might be more common in the larger sizes as we have a large and that means a longer frame and a greater First off... for the price this bed is pretty great.

Overall I love this bed for the price, if it lasts more than a few months I’ll be surprised and ecstatic as I have a fairly rough Australian cattle dog. … more

What a great find! This was easy to put together, and the hammock part of it is sturdy and soft. We have the large size and are using it indoor for an older dog to keep them off of the hard floor, and higher up for easier getting up and down with joint and knee issues. To make it cushier and washable, we put 2 small foam pads on top, secured them with a yoga strap, and have a cushy blanket on top of that. We've had it about a month now, it works great and is very comfortable. We will save and plan to purchase again.

The airflow is a big plus! Those winter type fluffy dog beds are hot, catch yard debris & I even found a tick in one. I have a fan blowing near the new elevated bed in the house & the dogs will be so much more comfortable. They have a bed outside also. These beds let dander and fluff fall down below so dogs stay cleaner. I have put these together before and replaced a cover also. From when I opened the instruction booklet to when I tightened the last screw was 11 minutes. I think 3 or 4 of my Miniature Schnauzers will fit on a medium. These are good solid beds.

My goats seem to like it. I’ve had one(different brand) in my other goat pen and it has lasted over 2 years outside I am hoping this one last me for a long time also The only thing I don’t like about this one is that if it gets moved it goes crooked(see 2nd pic) and I have to go and just set it down not sure if I did something wrong when I put it together. My dogs also enjoy theirs.

This item is great. It provides a raised area for my cats to sleep on and allow air to flow underneath, but is also high enough that they can sleep underneath it if they choose. The fabric stretches tightly with no sagging. I ordered the small for one outdoor cat, but it's plenty big enough for two of them to lay on it - actually a little larger than what I wanted. I bought an extra cover for it in case it gets clawed up, but neither of them are doing that after having it for about 10 days now. It was very easy to put together, too. This low-priced item is one of the best items I've bought - both for the quality and for the value.

My dog likes to lounge in the sun. Wheter its my back door area laying inside or laying on the step. However these two areas means they are in the way if we want to get in and out of the house. I bought this bed so they could have a third option not in the way of when someone needs to be in and out of the house. They use it frequently. The set up is pretty straight forward. I needed a second person however to put the thing together. It was less difficult as it required some strength I have not seen since I was in high school. Overall it was easy, sturdy. My dads dog even uses it when hes over. Hes a giant fluffy lab/australian shepard mix. Where as my little Australian shepards can both fit My dog likes to lounge in the sun.

The price was so low I worried about the quality since I couldn’t put my hands on it when ordering. I needn’t have worried. I was impressed with the quality and I put it together by myself in a few minutes. (Follow the instructions and don’t tighten everything until completely assembled.) It is sturdy & the mesh portion is thicker than I expected. I agonized over what size to order for my 23 lb Beagle/Terrier mix and finally settled on the small, which turned out to be the perfect size. When ordering, pay attention to the measurements...the bed is larger than you’d expect. I received the bed promptly & well-packaged.

I read the reviews before purchasing. Some People had issues with assembling. I found it to be pretty easy and straight forward. It is tight and one leg may raise off the ground but when you apply pressure to the end that raises it flattens. It also flattens when your pet lays on it. My dog is approximately 55 pounds. She likes it. I like the fact that she's not on the ground. It's sturdy and a good deal for the price. She uses it a few times a week.

The polyester webbing held up great, but the difference between the cheap brand (this one) and more expensive ones must be the flimsy plastic pieces that insert into the bars and hold the frame together. After less than two years, we are going to have to throw it in the garbage because the frame no longer holds together--all the plastic fasteners have cracked. Would not recommend. Spend the extra money on something that will last.

My dogs love this bed outside. I was surprised just how large the large was! I would have given this bed 5 stars but it was VERY difficult to put together! It was that last leg that created a problem. Also sometimes now the fourth leg gets a little wierd and doesn’t touch the ground. It does as soon as the dog gets on it but it looks like it may fall apart the way that fourth leg sticks up.
