Absolutely Perfect!
Okay. First off, I want to thank BarkBox for sending this product to me for free during one of their promotions! I mean... I never get anything for free so receiving this for our brand new pup deserves 5 stars on its own.
The Medium bed comes in a pretty good size box. It was packed tight and with care. There was a bag that was vacuumed sealed shut, the manuals, pea toy, and accommodating covers. I carefully took out the memory foam mattress pad and bumpers.
I fluffed out the bumpers, but thought that was a waste once I spent more time than necessary inserting them into the zippered cover - This took me a while. I decided to do this before the mattress was ready because I thought it would have been easier. I managed to get them all in and zippered nicely... this part of the bed felt like such great quality already! It was on the heavier side and was weighted all around. I felt really good about it even though this step challenged my patience a little.
Obviously, unfolding the mattress pad, there was a crease down the center... PER INSTRUCTIONS it states to wait 24-48 hours for it to completely inflate to the appropriate thickness. Well, I was patient and I waited and voila! NO CREASE OR BUMP down the center lol. (Complaints with this made me laugh) The instructions are pretty clear :) You can see the crease down the center in picture #3 & #4, but then see a dramatic difference in pictures #4, #5, & #6 (after 48 hours). There is zero bump, but there is a slight wrinkle on the upper memory foam. All sides seem to measure pretty consistent in height.
Put the bed together and it looks amazing :) My pup loves it and also loves the Pea toy it came with. The squeaker in the toy isn't that great, but it's just one less thing to annoy me lol. I give this bed 5 Stars, hands down and I would purchase this again in a heartbeat!!
It's superior quality!
PSA: For those of you saying the bed lacks in quality because it's not "Chew-Resistant"... I would suggest exercising your pups more and also supervising them if they are prone to destroying. I guarantee you, you won't be able to show me a dog bed that can withstand such abuse... this doesn't exist. This was one of the silliest complaints. Your dog destroying a terrific item has nothing to do with this company's quality.
Update: Bed is still amazing. Puppy is using it everyday oh his own! It makes me so happy. I went ahead and purchased the Sherpa cover to have on hand when the other cover is being washed. Love the option of the different covers available for the memory foam pad. Thanks BarkBox!
