My three bullies have taken this bed immediately after unpacking hogging. After opening the vacuum packing the bed has the same angenommem its predetermined shape without wrinkles. The edge of the bed is not hard but not so soft that it immediately tilts outwards under load. The dog bed is of high quality and the processing without flaws. Criticism on my part, there is for the inset cushion. It is quite thin and the filling feels as if it is lumpy after the first wash. As my older (osteoarthritis) bitch wanted to lie in the bed, slipped the loaded cushion away on the bed floor, exactly the same when Aufstehehen. Of course, my bitch was then firstonce insecure. I then put on the dog bed soil a thick wool blanket and the pillow a dog blanket. Now even my old dog dares in this really nice dog bed. Both my three year Boarder had but. Even before the "conversion" no problems with the bed Conclusion: Who is willing, possibly to improvise a bit, shall receive for a very reasonable price, a well-made dog bed. It looks like after the first wash, I can not tell at this point, unfortunately. But in cases of doubt is also possible for the price there a new pillow. Addendum: I had the insert cushion now wash 2x already and have it simply plugged times in the washing machine. Program: Handwaesche, 30 °, spin 1200 revolutions. The cushion is not as feared clumped, but looks like before! I am thrilled and admit now of course also 5 star.
