Check out our honest LAY LO Pets dog bed system review below for all the juicy details!
As a LAY LO affiliate, we were kindly gifted a dog bed to try – however, all thoughts and opinions expressed in this post are our own.
Like many dog beds these days, our LAY LO dog bed arrived vacuum sealed for ease of shipping. Once opened, the bed puffed up quickly and was ready to use almost immediately.
Thanks to the cover’s convenient 3-sided zipper, assembly was super quick and took less than a minute.
In our opinion, this is where LAY LO truly shines! Not only are their covers stunning to look at, but their quality is impeccable. The cover fabric itself feels thick, luxurious, and soft but is made from a tough polyester knit so it’s actually super durable and “dig-proof” too.
For our dog bed, we chose LAY LO’s trendy checker design in red, however, if checker’s not for you, there are over 20 other gorgeous patterns to choose from, including designer collaborations, classic plaid, Boho-inspired, and many more (view the full range, here).

The reverse side of the LAY LO dog bed cover is made from a thick, non-slip fabric which also appears to be water-resistant, based on how easily water rolled off when we tested it in the washing machine.
Yes – LAY LO dog bed covers are machine washable! You can even put them in the tumble dryer (on a low heat setting). Dog hair doesn’t seem to stick to them either, which is a nice bonus.
Finally, to elevate the design even further, our LAY LO dog bed cover also featured a convenient carry handle for ease of portability, as well as a luxe vegan-leather handle wrap.
LAY LO is all about customizable comfort and style, so it makes sense that their dog bed system allows you to choose what goes inside their beautiful covers.
For us, even though we were kindly gifted a LAY LO orthopedic mattress to try, we found that our dogs preferred their LAY LO dog bed when it was stuffed with soft and squishy pillows instead. Herein lies the beauty of the LAY LO dog bed system – you can buy each component separately and build an ensemble that works best for you!

Even though our pups preferred the LAY LO dog bed with DIY stuffing, the orthopedic mattress insert was also impressive. Featuring 4 inches of orthopedic support with a soft poly-fill topper and water-resistant liner.
For our 40 lb spaniels, we chose a LAY LO size medium. When the bed arrived, we were pleasantly surprised by just how generous LAY LO’s sizing was (for reference, a medium LAY LO dog bed measures 36” x 28” x 4” and is suitable for dogs up to 60 lbs).

For our dogs, the medium offered ample space for both stretching and snuggling, while the bed’s streamlined, low-profile design meant that it didn’t take up too much floor space either.
For larger breeds, LAY LO sizing goes up to a size XL, and can comfortably accommodate dogs up to 240 lbs (even Great Danes!).
In total, there are 4 LAY LO dog bed sizes to choose from; small, medium, large, and extra-large – truly something for dogs of all shapes and sizes!
As mentioned above, our dogs preferred their LAY LO dog bed with DIY filling. For pet parents in a similar position, LAY LO offers a 30-night sleep trial. Meaning your pup can test the bed for a full 30 nights before deciding if it is right for them.
If like our dogs, your pup prefers their own filling, you can return the insert to LAY LO for a full refund (minus the cost of return shipping).
That goes for the covers as well – if something’s off, simply reach out to LAY LO’s friendly support team, and they’ll help make things right. What have you got to lose?!
The LAY LO dog bed system is hard to fault because it’s just so versatile, but if we had to be picky and say something, it would be that LAY LO dog beds are only available in the rectangle shape (a bolster bed design or round option might be nice, too).
That, and the larger sizes can get a little expensive if you’re buying multiple covers!
We hope you found today’s post helpful!
