Cooling Mat for Large Dogs, Q-Max>0.46 - Self-Cooling Dog Bed with Arc-Chill Technology,Washable Dog Cooling Mat for Small & Medium Dogs, Indoor Outdoor Kennel Floor Use (36" x 24" - Large-Crate)

We have an English Bulldog and he needs a cooling mat that works. We’ve been through a lot of products that call themselves cooling mats but this one truly is a cooling mat. You don’t have to stick it in the freezer or refrigerator for it to stay cool. Our dog loves it and he goes to it when he’s hot.

This mat is cool. It is great for outside and washes up well. My Golden will not lay on it without a treat, but I think that is because Golden’s are quirky about new things.

Both of my cavalie rs are enjoying this cool mat. It is cool and easy to deal with, I would recommend it.

I have two cats, and I got one for each of them. One, wouldn't touch it (she has longer fur and weighs more, so she's already warm). The other (who is thinner and has shorter fur), absolutely obsessed, even in summer. I gave away the first one for someone's small dog, but the one I kept has held up for a couple years and my cat is still found on it pretty much every day. I have to unplug it some days because she'll sleep on it even during a heat wave - she seriously spends hours every day on it. Sometimes she pulls her actual bed over and uses it as a pillow while she's on her heat mat. She's so upset when I have to unplug it after she has surgery/a dental cleaning (because I can't trust her to be able to get up if she gets too warm when she's on anesthesia and pain meds), but the first day I DO turn it on, once she's off her meds, she spends the entire day on it. I'm really happy she has something to keep her warm in our Michigan winter, because she is alone at night and I used to worry about if she got too cold... now I only have to worry if the power goes out. The cord is really thick and sturdy. My cat has like two teeth, so she can't chew on cords anyway, so I have no idea how sturdy it is for cats who do like to chew. My other cat is a cord chewer, but she never used hers - and they live sepatately for medical reasons, so my other cat has no access to this one. The orange fabric cover comes off, so it should wash pretty well. So far I haven't had to wash it (though I do use a lint brush on it from time to time to remove hair), so I haven't taken the cover all the way off and can't comment on how the cover holds up in the wash.. but it has held up since I got it in Feb of 2020. So the big con (which I knew about when ordering so I'm not taking stars off for this) - mainly the temperature control, which is.... pretty much none. It's meant to be controlled by weight, so when she's not on it it's not really warm, and then it heats up when she's on it. I like that it doesn't stay constantly warm, but it would be nice to have some kind of control. The other thing is, it IS just a mat. There's absolutely no padding, and I think she would probably prefer if it was a bit softer/padded... but since it's on an old couch (nobody uses it except her anyway), it's not a big deal. I think there's probably better ones out there if you have a bigger budget, but this is a really decent heat mat and my cat is in love with it. Considering it has a 50/50 success rate with my cats (in terms of liking it), I think it's a good option to get if you're not sure if your cat or dog would like a heat mat. But if you DO know they like them, it may be worth it to spend a little more if you can afford it. I originally got them for $20 each, the 12x15 size. The size is perfect for her, she CAN curl up on it but she often likes to spread out and spin around occasionally so that all of her gets warm, which she would have to do regardless of size. Overall, yes I would buy it again, but I'd probably try to find one that's a little nicer (heat control and padding) first if it was in my budget. I would DEFINITELY get these if I was fostering several cats or had messy cats that may need it to be cleaned frequently, since cleaning does seem to be really easy with this one.

Right out of the box, I knew my dogs would appreciate this cooling mat. You could feel the coolness of the mat. I purchased two of them. WE are currently going through a home renovation and without AC. This was a great solution to a very uncomfortable situation. It fits perfectly in an extra large crate for my corgis. Two of them can fit comfortably on one mat. I don't think its chew resistant though because my big puppy took a big bite of the corner within two hours. (but he eats EVERYTHING) Other than that, its a great product.

Not as big as I hoped it would be. My dogs can lay on it but if they lay on their sides it isn't wide enough

Absolutely no cooling effect when it is hot out. It actually feels warm to the touch. soft and works as a pad.

My dog loves it! Thanks!

I bought this for my spoiled bunny. He loves it. The cord is covered for no chewing and the fabric is easy to clean

We use this year round in the cats bed. They love the warmth and I love the safety of the right temperature for pets!

Très bien et surtout confortable pour notre petit chien

It’s working well. Our cat is happy to stay snuggled up long than he has been. I would have preferred a three prong for exterior use. Otherwise it’s perfect!

The dogs like it and so do I. There’s no heat adjustment or on or off switch. Just plug it in and it stays on until you unplug it. I prefer that.
