Why does this bed cost half the price of Big Barker bed when the descriptions are the same?

Hi Gail , I'm not sure which bed your referring to, however I don't believe anybody makes exactly the same product we are making since we designed it. To address the real question, we are the innovators of the product. Everyone else seems to be made offshore, we're made in USA and we are the manufacturer. The price on Amazon is actually our wholesale price and it is offered online right now as a promotion. We also priced it low to help other people who could use a break on the price. We will have to discontinue the promotion very soon to accommodate the professional market places. Hope this helps, if not please feel free to contact again. Jeff K.

I dont think that would be a good idea because of the materials they are made of. They do have beds with double the storage on amazon for about what you would pay for two.

I'm not familiar with the other bed. My young growing 80 Rottweiler loves it. She did manage to rip the zipper on the cover but I just layer blankets. I know she prefers it because she wants to sleep at the side if my bed. But I've placed her bed outside my sliding glass door on the deck. Every night she attempts to stick it out n sleep on the floor. But always ends up on her bed outside. She sleeps very soundly on this bed. Other places she's constantly repositioning herself. The ten yr warranty sold me. But watching her love it made me love it. A 4 inch layer wouldn't give her the support.

I purchased this bed in May 2011 and have just contacted the company for a replacement cover. They are going to get back to me with a price. The price of the replacement cover probably will not be justified when I can buy a brand new bed on Amazon for $50.23. I will say this company is very responsive and nice to deal with.Update: I've just heard back from the company. The replacement covers for the extra large size are $25.00 each. That's half the price of a brand new bed. Hardly seems worth it to buy a replacement cover.

The foam height difference would be part of it, but also the Big Barker has a 10 YEAR GUARANTEE!!!! The Dogonit says: "a 30 day 100% satisfaction guarantee and a 3 year manufacturer warranty on materials and workmanship".

It DOES sell for $250! I saw this model at Bed, Bath & Beyond for $250. I'm so glad I didn't buy it there!!

I checked it out and it appears to be the same bed. That are only showing the twin in the picture but they indicate it is also a toddler bed. I think it's the same. Just a FYI..it will take some time to put the decals on the bed.

It is not as thick as the Big Barker but if you are interested in the orthopedic bed by doggonit I would get the 4.5 GEL Memory Foam. It is a great bed and the gel helps regulate the temperature. I am very happy with mine and so are my best friends! I use a doggie blanket on top of it so that I don't have to wash the zipper cover.

I don't believe there is a difference at all. They appear to be the same and the dimensions are the same. Sometimes a product doesn't get removed or updated when there is a change, so it's probably the same one at the "original" price. This is a great stroller, especially if you have multiple smaller dogs that like to ride together but it really is only usable on a good surface. It doesn't turn so well on dirt roads and such and doesn't get much traction.

Not sure of cost difference but it's almost twice the foam and my dog loves the bed. 10 year warranty on foam and I could have returned it if my dog didn't like it. This is his first that he actually likes. Other cheaper brands he destroyed and never laid on, to me it was worth the investment and he no longer uses our sofa as a bed.

There were two postings on Amazon for this bed. One did not include the Trundle even though the picture showed it at the time I ordered it. Order the more expensive posting. It includes the Trundle.

I cannnot answer that. I only bought the full size because that is the size of matteress I have. I know sometimes the larger things are cheaper than the smaller ones, and sure wish this wasn't one of those times. But, I do like my metal bed for my full size matteress.

Quite likely to be just economies of scale...more people might need a queen over a full size and that will bring the prices down for that size generally..

I had same question!I spent ~ 1 hour... reading all comments for both... doing google search for both part #s... I found that even the Gilsson website only had one product, but they used both names for it !?Finally, I decided to check prices for "used" & "new"... and found that both models were being sold for pretty much the same price after S&H; was added. So, I'm concluding that they are one-and-the-same.The low price of UBM-1 is pretty deceiving... 'cause the S&H; brings it over $20 total... which is about the same as UBM price range w/ S&H.; I had same question!I spent ~ 1 hour... reading all comments for both... doing google search for both part #s...

http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10094381This is a thin foam mattress. It's quite nice. $130 for a twin.http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/30094361This is also a thin foam mattress. It's cheaper. $80 for a twin. Reviews say it's a bit hard, but that will probably go well with this topper.

It definitely has that "marshmallow" feel. I am experiencing that this bed has much more give than the one that I used to own. In fact, my last one did not really leave the body impression. Like I said in my post I wish that I had seen and sprung for the $750. I am not 100% unsatisfied but from the information that I have the Deluxe would be better.

that is kind of strange. that didn't happen when I bought it. It must be an amazon website problem. Hope your not shopping for beds these are bed frames.
