Although it says that it's washable, it's NOT machine washable - you have to wash it by hand! This means the whole bed, because it doesn't have a washable outer cover. This means putting the removable pad and/or the whole bed in the bath. It is therefore completely impractical as a dog bed - clearly the designers have never heard of mud. My dog shredded the bottom lining through scratching within a few days of getting it, whilst this doesn't detract from functionality, it doesn't seem to have been designed very well. Because you can't wash it, we have put a duvet on top of the bed, which works fine so long as she doesn't scratch it up. It doesn't look particularly durable - we've only had it about a month and it already looks worn. Definitely avoid this bed if your dog is a chewer - it'll be shredded to pieces within a few hours. It's impractical, poor quality, and therefore I wouldn't buy this bed again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
