Has anyone had trouble with the bed starting to sink in the middle due to wear?

My dog has been using the bed every day, all day, for over a year now and it looks the same as it did when it first arrived.

no. it is used by multiple dogs. I recomended it to my daughter who has a 160 lb English Mastif

no i have not. i have three greyhounds and i have 4 of these beds and 2 from another company. i have 2 of the memory foam beds for about 2 years and they are as good as they were when i bought them. the other beds from another company are sinking in the middle. i bought two more of these beds this year and the older ones are as nice as the new ones. i would buy them again but each dog has two beds each now. lol

No, we've had it for two years and it is shared by a 45lb dog and a 75lb dog. They are on it all the time.

No, not at all. The bed has held up very well. Have had it just under a year.

I have had one of these for about 5 years and my 65# dog has slept on it every night and I am having to replace it now due to sinking in the middle, but I think that is a pretty reasonable life span.

No, I haven't had this problem, but we've only had this bed for a few weeks. My dog is 120 lbs and sleeps on it all the time too. I love this bed especially because she has incontinence problems and it's SO EASY to change and wash the covers (something we do nearly daily).

No. This bed is terrible. I weigh under 130 lbs and it sinks in permanently quickly. I have had the bed for 7 or 8 months and had to flip it 3 times already and I need to do it again. I just spun it around the last time and you can see the big dip in it and it looks broken down and uneven. I would suggest a different bed.

We haven't had a problem with the sides wearing out. Although ours doesn't stand that much on them. She is relaxed and sits or curls up and goes to sleep. Enjoy!

We aren't necessarily big. I weight about 200, my wife is small but VERY pregnant, and our five-year-old frequently jumps in with us. We have noticed NO indention. We do try to flip it once a month, which I guess helps. We also have it sitting on our old box spring, which I have been told can cause indentions underneath from the box spring metal. We haven't seen any though.I can not say enough how much I NOW enjoy going to bed. I dread sleeping on anything else, even the very nice bed we sleep on at my folks.

no they haven't ! I've had mine for 3 months now-used as a full time bed-and it's got a huge bump down the middle rendering it useless. Intex does not warranty their beds either, dissapointing.

Yes, you sink slightly. I tend to like softer beds, so this worked well for me. You do leave a slight indentation too, but this goes away quickly after you move around.

No. My bed hasn't been used so I'm not sure about the slipping/shifting factor but will find out this weekend when my son returns.

Yes. The middle is supposed to be sunken & soft but it's not quite sunken enough; there's still some pressure there. :-/

We've had this bed for 2 years now and I have not experienced this problem whatsoever. Our mattress is very comfortable and I would buy this again for sure.

You can try more bedding material (deeper). I have three in the habitat and never had an issue with any leakage. Check for holes or cracks in the material too.

My bed had the same problem, and the mattress pad has helped considerably. It won't make your mattress like new, but it will give you a lot more padding and buy you some time before you have to replace your mattress.

I have without a problem. It is very nice kind of quilted and great for late spring summer and early fall. I have put our heavy bedspread back on now.

Got mine August 2012 and it's ... failing. I completely turn it every month, it's under a mattress pad, I weigh about 120, but it's developed "cracks" and where my hips are (yes, I know laying down your hips are the heaviest area), it's really kind of "crushed". I loved this SO much - fibro, herniated L4-5 with recurring sciatica, arthritis but now I have to think about trying to scrape up money to get a new topper and I'm not sure I want to get another of this one. Mine hasn't lasted a year and it's just me and occasionally my cat.

I have to say I've used my bed several times over tthe past few months and never had an issue with it deflating! Actually had friends over and they used it 3 nites in a row and only repumped it once. And it wasn't completely deflated.

The one i have has a top layer that is quite soft or you might say does sink down and then after an inch and a half or so gets firm. It is like a plush top type conventional mattress but when it gets firm it is a comfortable type support not like really hard. You might want to try to find one in a store to preview to see how they work. I have mine on a platform bed with no box spring and a box spring is really unnecessary with my configuration, Hope this helps.

That has not been our experience at all. the mattress has kept its form nicely so far these 3 months. It gives a bit to conform to you, but it hasn't sunk at all for us. I'm a semi-normal 190 lb male and it holds me fine. If I were double that size, I suppose it might sink a bit.....

I've had it for about a year now as my bed and it's held up well. I haven't had it upright (as a couch) since it was first assembled.
