Sunheir 35-Inch Washable Orthopedic Dog Bed Review
As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.
If you are weighing Sunheir beds, this review covers one of them: the Sunheir washable orthopedic large dog bed, 35 by 22 inches, with a 3 inch foam core and a removable cover. The listing gives a maximum weight of 90 pounds. Its spec table gives a medium breed size, while its title says large, so check the figures against your dog before you order.
The bed is a rectangle for indoor use. The listing uses the word orthopedic, but it gives no foam density, and we did not find a definition of that word for dog beds in the pages we opened.
Quick answer
- Who it suits: an indoor dog within the listed 90 pound figure that needs a bed with a removable, machine-washable cover.
- Size: the bed measures 35 by 22 inches. The title says large and the spec table says medium, so measure your dog rather than relying on either label.
- Foam: the bullets describe 3 inch high-density egg foam, and the spec table says polyurethane foam. The density is not stated.
- Orthopedic: the word appears in the listing, but we did not find a definition for dog beds in the sources we opened.
What the listing states
The table uses only what the listing data says. The listing data was collected on 2026-10-12, and the fallback page we opened on 2026-10-21 did not show the full specifications.
| Item | What the listing says | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Size | 35 x 22 x 3 inches | Spec table |
| Maximum weight | 90 pounds | Spec table; the bullets do not state a weight |
| Core | Polyurethane foam (spec table); 3 inch high-density egg foam (bullets) | Two descriptions; density not stated |
| Cover | Waterproof leathaire and polyester sherpa (spec table); three-layer design with a waterproof middle layer (bullets) | Cover material names differ |
| Top surface | Plush sherpa | Bullets |
| Bottom | Slip-resistant | Bullets and spec table |
| Care | Machine wash the cover | Care for the foam core is not stated |
| Packaging | Pack compressed; 48 hours to rest after opening | Bullets |
| Breed size | Medium (spec table); large (title) | The listing disagrees with itself |
| Breed recommendation | Border Collie, Australian Shepherd and other large breeds, as listed | Does not match the medium breed size field |
| Uses | Indoor: living room floor, elevated bed, crate or pet house | Bullets |
| Item weight | 0.5 kg | About 1.1 pounds (0.5 times 2.2046) |
The two foam descriptions are the most important disagreement. “Egg foam” and “polyurethane foam” are both foam, but neither the listing data nor the bullets give a density, so the bed cannot be compared with another foam bed on firmness or thickness alone.
Size and weight arithmetic
Two checks come from the listed figures. These are our calculations, not rules from the sources.
- Weight margin: 90 minus the dog’s weight. A dog of 80 pounds leaves 10 pounds (90 minus 80), which is 11 percent of the limit (10 divided by 90).
- Length margin: 35 minus the dog’s length. The AKC measures length from the tip of the nose to the tip of the tail. A dog that measures 30 inches on that line leaves 5 inches of bed length (35 minus 30).
The length margin is a rough check. The AKC’s measurement is taken with the dog standing, and the listing does not say how bed length relates to a dog’s length when it lies down or curls up. A dog that curls will need less length than one that stretches out.
The weight figure needs the same caution as any other. PetMD says “Weight and breed recommendations give us an estimate, but each dog is an individual.” Use the 90 pound figure as the seller’s estimate, and check whether the bed’s size suits your dog’s length.
Orthopedic: what the sources say
The PetMD guide we opened says “Most companies use memory foam or other sturdy foam to create a dog bed.” That describes common practice, and it does not define orthopedic. The same page says its products were “reviewed by our trusted vets and experts,” and it gives an update date of January 2, 2026. We did not find a definition of “orthopedic” for dog beds in the pages we opened, and the Sunheir listing gives no foam density that would support the word.
For that reason this review does not describe the bed as a support bed, and it does not treat the word as a measure of quality. If you want the word to mean something for your dog, ask your vet which bed style suits your dog, and check the foam density with the seller before you buy.
Cover, care and the first days
The listing says the cover is machine washable, and it describes a removable three-layer cover with a waterproof middle layer. The bullets say the waterproof layer in the middle of the cover is meant to keep liquid from reaching the inner foam, which is the seller’s description. The listing does not say how the foam core handles spills, so treat the waterproof claim as applying to the cover only.
The bullets also say the pack was compressed and suggest 48 hours of rest after opening so the bed can reach its best shape. Allow that time before you judge the size or the firmness, and dry the cover fully before you put it back on the foam.
Measure the bed, not only the label
The listing gives one size, 35 by 22 inches, and it does not say whether that is the outer or the inner measurement of the bed. For a dog that stretches out, the inner length is the number that matters. Measure the bed you receive with a tape, both outer and inner length and width, and compare the inner length with your dog.
Use the AKC steps to measure your dog. Measure height from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet with the dog standing, and length from the tip of the nose to the tip of the tail. The AKC gives these steps for crates, and the sources we opened do not give a bed-specific rule, so the comparison below is our own. A dog whose length is close to 35 inches will fill the bed, and a shorter dog will have room to spare.
- Length: compare the bed’s inner length with the dog’s nose-to-tail measurement.
- Width: the listing gives 22 inches. A dog that sleeps curled up needs less width than one that sleeps stretched out.
- Height: the bed is 3 inches thick, so a dog that lies on it sits higher. The listing does not say how much the foam rises once the pack has fully expanded.
When a different bed makes more sense
This bed is not the best fit in several cases. A dog above the 90 pound figure, or a dog whose length is close to or over the bed’s length, is outside what the listing describes. A dog that chews fabric or foam is another case: the listing does not say how the cover or the core holds up to chewing, and the sources we opened do not describe any dog bed as chew-proof.
A dog that needs a firmer or thicker bed is also a poor match. The listing gives a 3 inch core and no density, so you cannot tell how it compares with a thicker foam bed. The orthopedic guide for extra large dogs, linked earlier in this post, is the place to compare thicker options.
Product pick
Sunheir Washable Orthopedic Large Dog Bed with Removable Cover, 35 x 22 Inches
Why it fits: the listing describes an indoor, rectangular bed with a removable, machine-washable cover, a slip-resistant bottom and a 3 inch foam core. The listed maximum weight is 90 pounds.
Skip if: your dog weighs more than 90 pounds, your dog chews fabric or foam, or you need a thick or firm bed, since the listing gives a 3 inch core and no density.
Limit: the listing gives a medium breed size and a large title, and the foam is described two ways. Confirm the size and the foam with the seller before you buy.
Mistakes to avoid
- Choosing by the title alone. The title says large, and the spec table says medium. Measure your dog.
- Reading “egg foam” as a firmness rating. The listing gives a thickness, not a density.
- Treating the weight limit as exact. PetMD calls weight recommendations an estimate.
- Judging the bed on the first day. The bullets ask for 48 hours of rest after the pack is opened.

How we chose
We started from the product named in the title and the keyword “sunheir beds.” The research file for that keyword held 12 listings. One of them, the Sunheir Washable Orthopedic Large Dog Bed (ASIN B0BNT3SV9H), is the product this review covers. The other 11 were other brands, including an EHEYCIGA bed, a Bedsure bed, an INVENHO bed, a small round cat-and-dog bed and a JOEJOY bed, so they are not reviewed here.
The listing data was collected on 2026-10-12. We opened the PetMD and AKC pages on 2026-10-21 and used only wording we could find in the text of those pages. We chose the PetMD guide because it covers the orthopedic bed category, and it says its products were reviewed by its vets and experts. We did not use brand or retailer guides for any claim about this bed.
What we could not verify
- The foam density and how the core holds its shape over time. The listing gives a thickness and two foam names, but no density.
- Whether the foam core is waterproof. The bullets describe a waterproof layer in the cover only.
- How the cover holds up to chewing. The listing does not say.
- Where the 90 pound figure came from. The listing does not say how it was set.
- Whether the bed is breed-sized for medium or large dogs. The listing disagrees with itself.
- Whether the bed is orthopedic in any measurable sense. We did not find a definition of the word for dog beds in the pages we opened.
- Anything from a manufacturer page. We did not open one for Sunheir for this review.
Frequently asked questions
Is this bed orthopedic?
The listing uses the word, lists “Orthopedic” as a special feature, and describes a 3 inch foam core. The PetMD guide says “Most companies use memory foam or other sturdy foam.” We did not find a definition of “orthopedic” for dog beds in the pages we opened, and the listing gives no foam density. A vet can tell you whether a bed suits your dog’s needs.
Can I wash the cover?
Yes. The listing says the cover is machine washable. Dry it fully before you put it back on the foam.
How much weight can it take?
The spec table says 90 pounds. The PetMD guide says “Weight and breed recommendations give us an estimate, but each dog is an individual,” so use the figure as an estimate and check the size against your dog.
Is it waterproof?
The bullets describe a waterproof middle layer in the cover. The listing does not say whether the foam core is waterproof, so do not assume it is.
Does the size suit a large dog?
The bed measures 35 by 22 inches. The title says large, but the spec table says medium. Compare the 35 inch length with your dog’s length on the AKC measurement, and confirm the size with the seller if your dog sits near either label.
Can I put it in a crate?
The bullets say the bed can be placed in a crate or pet house. The listing does not give a crate size. Measure the crate’s inside floor and height before you buy, and remember that PetMD says “crate mats and dog beds will take up additional space.” Subtract the bed’s 35 by 22 inches from the inside floor, and its 3 inches of thickness from the inside height, to see what room is left.
Bottom line
The Sunheir bed is a 35 by 22 inch foam bed with a removable, machine-washable cover, for an indoor dog within the listed 90 pounds. Check the size against your dog, read the foam and orthopedic wording as the seller’s description, and allow the 48 hours the listing asks for before you judge it.
