PHYEX Heavy Duty Steel-Framed Portable Elevated Pet Bed, Elevated Cooling Pet Cot, 43.5" L x 25.5" W x 7.8" H(M, Grey)

As an experiment, I purchased this cat furniture (small, brown) for my 3 cats. Arrived yesterday and was intensively and extensively examined by the gang. Each concluded that (1) it was great, and (2) it was their personal toy, not to be shared. So today I have ordered another of these loungers (small, grey) because it is well made, looks good, and my cats really like it (especially to sleep on at night). My cats are normal size and two could easily share this bed, but Chica got to it first for sleeping last night and no others were allowed (that might change in cold weather). AND YES, assembly was a real challenge! The instructions seemed either a bit sparse or a tad ambiguous to me, so naturally I discarded these and barged on ahead. The sides of the canvas rectangle are hemmed such that they form a tubular passage for the poles on each side. It's good for these to be snug (canvas wont sag as much), but the openings are tight. The long sides of the triangle are each supported by two poles that must be joined in the usual way (one pole has a more narrow end which then slips into the end of the other pole). However, the two poles can't be pre-joined before insertion into the hem tunnel because each pole is sharply bent at its end to form the legs upon which the furniture will stand. As a tip, I suggest you somehow firmly hold the canvas stretched out flat & straight to ease insertion of the pole end into the tunnel. You'll need hands #1 and #2 for that. Then with hands #3 and #4, firmly grip the pole, keeping it aligned with the tunnel, push forward hard and good luck. After success, open a can of cold beer and calm yourself. The best part is up next: inserting the pole with the narrow end into the other pole. Since this is done inside the hem (which is opaque and stiff) you can't see & only vaguely feel what you are doing. Just think back to 'spin the bottle' where the winners repair to a closet, which is completely dark, so you can't see those lips, and so must approach with great caution. For me, the only other tricky part was attaching the short side poles to the long side poles. This is done with threaded bolts (they call 'em screws) with spring washers and special plastic spacers (my term). Picture in your mind: in one hand holding the side pole pressed gently up against the end pole (perpendicular) in your other hand. The end of the end pole has a threaded hole in its end, into which will go the threaded bolt after it passes through pre-drilled holes in the side pole. So, (a) put the spring washer on the bolt (very first step) and (b) then insert the bolt through the pre-drilled holes in the side pole, and (c) now with the bolt protruding from the hole in the side pole, slip the special spacer over the bolt such that the curved surface of the spacer is flush with the roundness of the side pole, and the bolt now extends through the spacer where it is now free to join with the end pole. (d) While holding the end pole up against the bolt (now protuding from the spacer) gently push the poles together while turning (screwing) the bolt using the provided hex wrench. With luck, the threded bolt will engage with the threaded hole in the end pole, and all pieces will draw together tightly. CAUTION: my impression of the threaded pieces is that they are not very tolerant of even small angles of misalignment while screwing and the threads are not made of hardened steel. If misaligned, you will feel some resistence when you turn the hex wrench, but not all that much. If you persist, you can easily strip the threads. So be careful. Go slow and expect to have trouble especially in step (d) above, where 5 to 10 re-starts is normal. And by the way, it would really help to have 3 or 4 hands in step (d). Maybe you can shanghai a helper. Having read a few of the reviews for this cat furniture, it's clear that assembly is the big problem. My advise to the manufacturer is to create a 10-12 minute video that encounters all the tricky spots and presents blow by blow guidance with copious tips and cautions. An experienced mechanic might laugh at this, but the vast majority of customers will be very grateful. And finally, perhaps you may feel better if I tell you that, I got all the way through assembly only to notice that I had the canvas tarp upside down and had to dismantle the hardest part (attaching the poles with the bolts), rotating those side poles to face the right way and then re-doing all else that follows.

My boston terrier puppy is a big chewer and chewed through every single stuffing/foam based bed we bought him. We were hesitant to buy expensive “indestructible” beds so we gave this one a chance and so glad we did! He has had it almost a year now and hasn't chewed on it at all. The quality has lasted and it stays clean and durable! He sleeps on it every night with his blankets. Sometimes we even catch our cat laying on it!

She finally has a place to claim as her own! This was a wonderful purchase. It is a very large bed. My dog is 70lbs and it seems a bit too large for her, but it holds her weight just fine, even when she run at full speed and jumps on it. We’ve had it 4 months now and she’s jumped on it multiple times a day and not problems.

I have a two year old Australian Shepherd that likes to chew everything. I looked at some beds with corners that looked like they were begging to be chewed. This bed is metal, where some were made of PVC pipe, so she cannot chew the frame. The bed will hold her and is big enough for our two miniature dachshunds to join her. I would highly recommend this bed. It is not too high for the dachshunds to get on.

Fits my Dalmatian so well and she still has room. I got a medium. The first week it took a while for her to adjust to this bed but now she loves it.

This is great little dog bed and I felt that it was easy to put together

What i like most about this product, it was simple to put together, strong material and larger that I expected, I was very pleased . My boxer was very happy with it too !! She climbed up on it as soon as I got it put together ❤

I use these for my dogs’ large kennels in my garage. They are the perfect size for them (both between 65-85lb). They are super durable. I’m sure if you had a super bad chewer they could damage the bed, but otherwise these hold up awesome to wear and tear. They are also very easy to hose off or wipe off if they get dirty. I’ll probably order one or two for my backyard soon!

Nuestros perros duermen adentro y el olor de las camas tradicionales era tan fuerte que hasta ellos preferían jalar una jerga y dormir en el piso. Al inicio les dió miedo subirse pero una vez que se acomodaron son felices de estar ahí. Son frescas pero tampoco muy frías por estar elevadas. Lo mejor es que se limpian super rápido. Las recomiendo de verdad.

Es la segunda cama de esta marca que compro, las 2 en el modelo grande, tengo un bóxer y un pastor Alemán y les encanta, la cama esta bastante amplia, en ocaciones se acuestan a lo largo y sobra espacio, el material es lona como de camastro de playa, super limpiable, leí comentarios que a muchas personas les costaba trabajo armarla, en mi caso me pareció bastane fácil, en las 2 ocasiones me tomo 15 min armarla, cabe mencionar que no debes de poner mucho peso sobre la cama porque va perdiendo tensión la lona y empieza a colgarse la tela, tenemos 6 meses de uso y hasta el momento nada grave, pero se que venden el repuesto de la lona, en general recomiendo el producto, buen material, bien precio, fácil de armar y mis perros son felices.

Excelente tal y como en las fotos, no me costo nada de trabajo armarla; compre la grande para mi Airedale y le sobro un poquito de espacio pero creo que es perfecta para que este cómodo, no le doy las 5 estrellas por que una de las patas no traía la goma que va hacia el suelo pero eso no genera mayor problema mientras no arrastre la cama. Se ve resistente y fácil se limpiar.

Fácil de armar viene con su llave, le encanta a mi mascota! Desde que la instalamos supo que era para el! Ligera y resistente! Cabe perfecto hasta con su juguete! Ahora ya estamos más tranquilos porque suelen salir alacranes y así no está durmiendo completamente en el suelo

La verdad si es un poco cara, pero me aún así me animé a comprarla. Al principio tenía mis dudas acerca de la resistencia del material y pensaba que iba a ser un desperdicio, pero cual fue mi sorpresa al ver que es todo lo contrario, esta cama nos sostiene a mis dos perras y a mí (peso entre las 3 77 kg) al principio solo mi perrita pequeña (5 kg) la usaba y desde el primer momento la amó, pero la otra (22 kg) tenía sus dudas y se dormía a un lado de la cama, ha pasado un mes y ya finalmente también se adaptó y también ama su cama. No se desanimen si en un principio sus perritos no la usan, es cuestión de tiempo y de que les enseñemos un poquito, por cierto, compré la cama grande y a veces yo también me acuesto un ratito con ellas jajaja, en fin si llegaste hasta acá gracias por leer, pero es que tenia que ser muy exacta en mi opinión :)
