Dog loves this bed.  He is a 22lb terrier mix and he has plenty of space to sprawl out (but when he's curled up he only takes up about half the bed).  I wanted something for my living room that looked nice, matched the decor, and lifted off the ground so I could vacuum under.  This is perfect.  I will note that we don't use the cushion that came with... it is a little too fluffed/too deep and the top of the cushion nearly reached the top of the bed edge.  My dog prefers to be a little more snuggled in and the edges provide something to lean against, so we just but a thin old crate bed with a nice blanket over it.  But that's a preference thing, I'm sure the cushion is fine for other (maybe larger) dogs.
