I have purchased two of these now as I ruined the first one in my washing machine. I now use the "delicate" wash programme. Dog seems relaxed and happy to use it.
I bought my second one of these beds after four years, as the first one was starting to look a little worse for wear. The foam inside the bed had become broken and the sides were getting a bit perished. Unfortunately it seems that the bumper cover on the newer bed I purchased is slightly shorter than on the old model, but apart from that I'm very happy with it.
On the whole this is a great car bed. Our dog lay down in it straight away, and closed his eyes with a look that said "i never want to get out of this bed again". However, unfortunately the bumper cover is far too short. I had to put an extra blanket underneath so that the bumper of my brand new Skoda Roomster Scout can stay in good condition for a while longer. Apart from that though, a great bed. Haven't tried to wash it yet, will see how that goes.
