When to Choose Orvis Memory Foam Bolster
Owners who want premium comfort and home-quality materials in a stylish design
Orvis brings their outdoor heritage to dog beds with premium memory foam, stain-resistant covers, and genuinely attractive fabric options. The comfort level is excellent and the build quality reflects the price. If aesthetics and premium materials matter as much as your dog's comfort, Orvis delivers.
Strengths
- Premium memory foam base with microfiber-wrapped bolsters for exceptional comfort
- Stain-resistant, machine-washable cover built with Orvis-grade materials
- Elegant tweed and herringbone fabric options complement home interiors
Limitations
- Premium pricing at $169+ puts it above most mid-range alternatives
- Heavy — difficult to move once placed
- Memory foam retains heat, which may not suit dogs in warm climates
When to Choose Coolaroo Original Elevated
Outdoor dogs or dogs in warm climates who need airflow and easy-clean durability
The Coolaroo is a different category of dog bed — elevated, breathable, and virtually indestructible for cleaning purposes. Perfect for outdoor use, porches, or dogs that overheat. The trade-off is zero cushioning, so it is not the right choice for dogs with joint issues. But for durability and washability, nothing beats it.
Strengths
- Elevated HDPE fabric allows airflow underneath — ideal for hot climates and outdoor use
- Extremely easy to clean — just hose it off and let it air dry
- Powder-coated steel frame is highly durable and resists rust
Limitations
- No cushioning or foam — not suitable for dogs needing orthopedic support
- Fabric can sag over time under heavier dogs (100+ lbs)
- Some dogs dislike the elevated/hammock feel and prefer traditional beds
