Bedinabox: For the Record

| | TrackBacks (0)
Last summer I mentioned that I was interested in getting a memory-foam mattress from Bedinabox, and I got all sorts of traffic here because of it. The idea is intriguing—they manufacture a product similar to the Tempur-Pedic, then mash it up into a package a quarter of the normal size and send it to you through the mail, and the whole thing is about a quarter of the price too. The only sticky point is that they don't have showrooms, and if you don't like it you can send it back but it's your cost for shipping and what you're sending back is now a full-size mattress.

This gave me pause, so I searched myself for comments from actual people who had one, and found damn few. One guy had been near the factory on business, tried one, and was buying it on the strength of that trial. Fair enough. Anyway, I took the plunge, and for six months I've been perfectly happy. It's not as firm as the Tempur-Pedic, and if you want to look at their website they explain why that's a good thing. Long story short, I'm happy with the mattress. I don't sleep well because of a bad case of existential angst, but you can hardly blame the mattress for that. Hope this helps.

P.S. My lawyer just whispered to me that I should say that mattress choice is very personal. Even Consumer Reports pretty much throws their hands up and admits that. So no guarantees. My lawyer is now saying you should assess your own tolerance for risk, and if you can't risk having to ship the mattress back at your own cost your should consider other, tryable mattresses. Press AGREE to accept these terms.
