Best Bedding for Dog Owners
This blog post is sponsored by Furify but all thoughts are my own.
Our furry four-legged friends are often our most loyal companions, and for many dog and cat parents, snuggling with them in bed before falling asleep for the night is non-negotiable. A study conducted by the Mayo Clinic in 2017 even found that sleeping with your dog (or cat) in bed can increase your sleep efficiency to 83%.
But, there’s always one concern with co-sleeping: cleanliness.
Experts recommend washing your fitted and top sheets weekly and your duvet cover/comforter monthly (if using a top sheet). I don’t know about you, but I’m on a bi-weekly or monthly schedule for all of my bedding. But, I’m also not giving up cleanliness thanks to our Furify bedding. Let me tell you a bit about Furify and then we’ll get into what I think of the bedding after sleeping on it for a month.
About Furify
Furify was founded by a group of friends who feel the same way we do: our dogs should be allowed to sleep in our beds with us. After some traumatic incidents with their dogs bringing some unspeakable things to bed, they went to work on finding the perfect bedding so they could continue to sleep their dogs while not compromising on cleanliness.
After not being satisfied with any brand on the market, they built their own. The founding friends even donate 10% of their sales to animals in need and shelters across the U.S.
What’s unique about Furify bedding
Furify’s bamboo sheets are made entirely from premium bamboo fibers, which are renowned for their softness and quick-drying properties. This material also excels in repelling pet hair due to the higher anti-static properties and the tightly woven fabric.
Bamboo also possesses natural anti-bacterial properties due to the bamboo quinone in the fabric fibers. This provides natural anti-bacterial, anti-mite, anti-odor, and anti-insect functions, creating an unfavorable environment for bacteria to thrive.
Furify bedding options
Furify offers two types of bedding: bamboo and bamboo-cotton. Bamboo excels at repelling pet hair while their bamboo-cotton blend combines bamboo viscose with cotton fibers to enhance the breathability and durability of the bedding material.
Their bedding ranges in thread count from 300 for both the bamboo and bamboo-cotton blend options to their ultra-luxury bamboo sheet set with a 460 thread count.
Furify’s bedding also comes in a variety of colors inspired by nature, including shades of blue, green, and violet, to enhance comfort for pets and reduce stress levels.
Our review of Furify bedding
We’ve been sleeping with Furify bedding for a month at the time of writing this post and overall have really enjoyed it. I selected an entire set of sheets (fitted, flat, and pillowcases) and a duvet cover so we could get the full experience of sleeping with Furify.
As soon as the sheets arrived they took a spin in our washer and dryer. The sheet set and duvet cover come in respective silk bags with care instructions. It’s recommended to wash and dry the bedding on low heat with a neutral detergent.
I’m a neutral girlie, so I had to go with the white bedding set which goes perfectly with our bedroom. In the past I’ve experienced white bedding that’s been a bit see through where you can see the details and coloring of our pillows and mattress, but the white Furify sheets conceal these aspects. The bedding is also silky soft with a lightweight quality that’s perfect for summer. The sheets do seem to wrinkle easily, but the duvet cover doesn’t seem to wrinkle as badly especially with the use of a top sheet.
We’ve washed our bedding once and they’ve held nicely as expected, any mild stains from Ruby came out very easily, and if its possible the sheets feel like they’ve gotten even softer.
Below you can find my pros / cons for the bedding, but overall the cons don’t deter me from continuing to use the bedding.
Pros:
Silky soft
Lightweight, cool for summer
A variety of calming colors
Clean easily
10% of revenue goes to animal shelters
Cons:
Wrinkle easily
No side labeling for the flat sheet
