I need some help before i shell out lots of money for one of these beds!

I've had a read around and i'm under the impression the ONLY real memory foam is just that "Memory Foam" that is flat and is set into a base of other foam so that the foam doesn't collapse and keep moulding or otherwise the properties of memory foam are not existant. Which i understand.

The fakes include the egg shaped memory foam and the High density CM memory foam......which apparently is a load of rubbish!?? Confused

Also i know that huge rectangle bed with paw prints all over it is popular BUT i would really like a bolder type bed, as Lucy likes that.

Also i have tried looking into making my own BUT i would need covers and replacement covers etc and will probably be lots of money and effort!
Does anyone know the facts?

I've been desperate for one of these beds for Lucy, just because i think they are luxury and they must be sooooo comfy!

I'm getting annoyed with websites trying to tell me different things!! Mad

The only think I know about memory foam is it doesn't breath, so you wake up in the night thinking you are having a Hot Flush Shocked Laughing . I got rid of my memory foam mattress because of this, although I suppose dogs shouldn't have that problem, as they don't sweat. Wink

I've not seen any of the memory foam beds with a "chin rest" on either.....all I've seen are flat ones. My girls have flat beds at the moment but they much prefer ones they can snuggle into and rest their chin on, so I think I'll be looking for more beds for them for Christmas.
