Soft Washable Radiator Cat Bed

Had ours for a while now and the cats absolutely love them whether the radiators are on or not. Fits one cat in, fits in with the colour of the living room, really soft and comfortable for the cats and keeps them warm

This was an OK product, but no more than that. I bought another brand a while back, which one of my two cats loved. The other one didn't get a look in, so I bought another radiator bed for moggy 2. So far, neither moggy really seems that bothered with it. They use it occasionally, but it doesn't seem to be a favourite spot. It tilts down a little too much at the front for complete comfort, I think. (It slopes downwards about 5 degrees or so from the vertical.) It's subtle enough an incline that they don't exactly fall out, but instead sit on the loose cover like a hammock. However, despite being warm and cosy, they still seem to prefer lying on a cheap non-slip fluffy bath rug on the windowsill above the radiator than on this bed attached to the same radiator. The bath rug cost £8, and so did this bed. It was worth what I paid for it, but in terms of value and use that the cat gets out of it this bed was less of a bargain than I'd hoped it would be. Edit: I bent the frame upwards a little to address the issue with the bed sloping downwards, and it was an instant hit! Cat now sleeps in it even when the radiator is switched off at night. Given that she also has a heated blanket placed on a soft bed that she can use if she wants to, I take that as a ringing feline endorsement. Review changed from 3 stars to 5. Great value, and a great product.

A little bit flimsy, but fits over radiator nicely. Took a few weeks (and her own blanket), to entice her to use it, but now she loves it! Good price, could be a bit sturdier but 'you get what you pay for'. Happy with purchase

*UPDATE* Original review is below. A whole 7 weeks after receiving this item, one of our two cats (the bigger one, who is large for a male cat) has started using it!! He's sat and slept in it twice, very happily (no blanket for padding). No issues with the size of it (given he is large even for a male cat) or the sturdiness (given his weight, which is nearly 7kg I think). So, I stand corrected and recommend this as a great product, especially for the price. Still could be sturdier, it does wobble about a bit as he gets in and out (which put him off at first), but otherwise fine. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Good value as a try-out, for the price. Not very sturdy - it bobs about when the cats jump on it (or when put them on it, since they are totally ignoring the thing of course). Being cats, they are very suspicious of anything bought for them. I've had to put them on it to try to get them used to it. Tried the trick of putting a blanket on it to pad it out/remove the dip in the material. That hasn't worked, even a fleecy blanket they love to knead. It's too small really for our huge male cat (a bit bigger than average male cat), though he manages to squeeze himself into other weird and small spots. I worry about the weight of him on it, too, but since he's only stayed on it for longest 10 seconds, I can't be certain. Our other small female cat would be a perfect fit, but she's not having any of it either. I really need to stop buying things for cats. They don't use them. It's been in place for weeks now, and they haven't used it. I was optimistic when the weather changed, radiators on. No difference.

This is beautifully soft and comfortable for puss to sleep in. She loves it.

Cats loved these, perfect!

A good radiator bed for cats. Great quality. Easy assembly and very warm.

We got this for our cats for Christmas. Initially it took quite some time to work out how to unfold the fram so it was the right way up and put the cover on the right way round. There were no instructions in the box which made it all the more difficult. Initially the cats hated it, and jumped out the second we put them in. After a few weeks one of them started to use it, and a few weeks later the other one started using it too (with bribery by putting dreamies in it). We found that the cover was quite weak and the frame made holes in it very easily when refitting, or when trying to re-sitethe frame on the radiator. Within about six weeks of use the cover is starting to wear thin, especially around the frame. The bed is also sagging a lot more by at least 6 inches. The frame is also bending at the join and it started out by hanging on the radiator at around ninety degrees, it’s now at around 110 degrees. I’m disappointed by this as in addition to the lack of instructions, it’s only been used by the cats for around 6 weeks, and it’s showing significant signs of wear in both frame and cover. My cats are both small and light so I can only imagine that if this was used by a larger, heavier cat, this product wouldn’t last very well at all. I wouldn’t buy this cat bed again as it is such poor quality and I don’t see it lasting another month or so as it’s worn so quickly. I’m now looking for an alternative radiator bed for the cats.
