I was torn between a 3- and 4-star review. This bed definitely had the support and cushiness factor I was looking for. Our pets all use it. But it stank of memory-foam off-gassing, even after sitting outside for a couple days. Still stinks a bit. Perhaps it's due to the smell, or the lack of a bolster, but our aging doggie prefers the Integrity Orthopedic Memory Foam Joint Relief Bolster Dog Bed that we purchased at the same time. (Gave that one a 5-star), but also uses this bed and it cushions his aching hips just fine.
