Customer Review
Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2020
I never write product reviews, but after spending a significant amount of time shopping around for dog beds I thought a review could be useful for others.
I purchased this Casper bed, along with a Sealy Lux Quad Orthopedic Bed, to replace two Eluxury orthopedic mattresses that I purchased 2 years ago. The Eluxury mattresses were no longer supportive and my Goldens were sinking into them.
I was disappointed with the Casper bed as soon as I opened the box. The bed consists of 5 separate pieces (and a cover) - 1 mattress and 4 foam sides - and the mattress section itself is quite small for a large. Coming out of the box, the mattress looked and felt like a low-quality foam pillow. It was light-weight and seemed flimsy. I unpacked it and let it sit for a few hours to let it expand and take shape....but 2 hours later it was still scrunched, misshapen, and flat. This actually turned out to be a good thing, since it made the Casper bed easier to get back into the box in preparation for returning it. I tried lying down on the Casper myself, and it was extremely uncomfortable. It was not at all supportive and I could feel the hard floor beneath me. The price of this bed is outrageous for the quality; it is worth about a quarter of what Casper is charging.
The Sealy, on the other hand, felt heavier and denser than any foam dog bed I have felt before, which is a sign of a higher quality foam mattress. The Sealy bed filled out quickly after unpacking it and was easy to assemble. When I tried lying down on the Sealy it was supportive, without being hard.
When I purchased these two beds I was actually more skeptical about the Sealy. I anticipated wanting to keep the Casper and return the Sealy, but we will definitely be returning the Casper and getting a second Sealy.
I'm surprised at all of the positive reviews for the Casper. My guess is that these come from people that have not tried out a lot of other foam dog beds. The cover does seem to be pretty nice...perhaps that leads to the higher ratings?
