Majestic Pet Suede Bagel Dog Bed
- Inside wears out
After two years, Wirecutter found several rips in the bolster's inner liner, though the outer suede was intact; it says a bed at this price probably won't last forever. Amazon's summary says some owners report it fell apart within 30 days.
- Annoying to wash
Small and medium sizes have no removable cover, so the whole bed goes in the washer (Wirecutter, maker). On large sizes, the zippers sit deep in a dirt-collecting crevice, and reassembly takes several minutes.

Wirecutter could still see a faded spot after spot-cleaning; how much shows depends on the color.
