We had bought our puppies 3 different beds (for different locations in the house) and this is our and your favorites. It's really nice. The color is in the photo, a beautiful dark anthracite. It is chic and should like the living room. The insulation is really good because the inner bottom is slightly thicker. The right floor under the inner cushion is really thin, but because the dog does not come back, yes, because the large inner pads plugged firmly. The pillow is cute :) We have an active puppy in bed, with now 40 kg. As has often been bitten, scratched or raging. So far, nothing is broke down. To clean the inner cushion can take out and vacuuming. Once we have now washed the bed. But you could see the pad to take out good. The large base was really big for the washing machine, but it worked. The assembly was then understandable, we have made it to second that went well. Even after the washing, the colors well and the entire bed were stable. We are excited about the bed and would definitely recommend.
