Now I Get It.
Shopping For A Mattress Online Can Be Challenging and Overwhelming
About a year ago, it was all my friends were talking about. They all dived headfirst into the new mattress in a box trend. I heard it all, “there are too many choices”, “I really need to test a mattress before I buy it”, “do I even need a new mattress”? If you don’t need a new mattress and you want to test it before you buy it, why are you shopping online? I thought they were all out of their minds and I was glad I had a new mattress, less than 2 years old. Then it happened.
Over the summer, a massive storm blew through our city. Luckily, the damage to our community was minimal and no one was hurt. My roof, on the other hand, took a pretty serious beating. We got almost two feet of rain in 24 hours and we sprang two different leaks on our second floor. One in the bathroom and the other right over our bed in the master bedroom. My mattress, like much of my bedroom, was totally ruined.
Everything was covered by our home-owners insurance, which was nice, and immediately put us in the market for a new queen mattress for our master bedroom. I have to admit, I was totally overwhelmed by the number of mattresses to choose from. I had no idea where to even begin this search. So I reached out to the same friends that had annoyed me a little bit with all of their mattress-talk the same time last year. One friend had a more expensive memory foam mattress but said her husband complained it was hot to sleep on. Another had some sort of lightweight science mattress. I prefer a good old-fashioned spring mattress, so that was out. But one friend told me she had opted for a DreamCloud mattress. It was a hybrid mattress, which means it has both springs for support and foam for softness and comfort. And it didn’t cost an arm and a leg. It piqued my interest, so I began doing my own research.
I started Googling and found some unaffiliated mattress review sites. I can be pretty skeptical about hot new trends, so I wanted a more honest opinion. It was the DreamCloud reviews that got me excited:
“I'm getting the best sleep of my life. Thank you, DreamCloud.”
“This mattress is beyond comfortable. Couldn’t be happier!”
“Best mattress ever!
We have purchased what we thought were good mattresses. I suppose they were. However, this is the first one that has truly been a comfortable mattress for both of us.”
The review sites were full of glowing reviews but they also tipped me off to one of the best features any of the online mattresses had to offer. A 365-night risk-free trial. I could sleep on the DreamCloud for an entire year and decide later if it’s the best bed for us? Talk about overcoming my objections. DreamCloud also had a lifetime warranty, as well as, free shipping and returns. What I gathered from that was, these guys believe in their product and stand behind it. I was sold.
Our new DreamCloud arrived a few days later in a box on our porch. The box was big, but MUCH smaller than I expected for a king mattress. It was pretty heavy, so I got my husband’s help lugging it upstairs into our office (where we had been sleeping while our bedroom ceiling and floors were repaired). We pulled the DreamCloud out of the box, cut the plastic, and watched it quickly spring to life and expand. It was pretty entertaining to watch the mattress unfurl itself. We tossed some sheets on and slept on the mattress that night.
From that first night, I could tell that the DreamCloud was for me. The soft and cozy cashmere-blend top felt like a little taste of luxury I needed after almost two weeks of roughing in our construction site of a home. And the support from the springs was incredibly familiar in a comforting way. I was feeling pretty confident in this choice pretty quickly.
Flash-forward, construction is done and I still love my DreamCloud. I loved the idea of a 365-night trial, lifetime warranty, and free returns; but I know I won’t be needing those. My husband has even been raving about how well he is sleeping. I think he is secretly happy about this outcome of the whole roof debacle.
I can’t thank my friend enough for recommending DreamCloud. It has been a great purchase for me and I am sure you will love a DreamCloud mattress too. If you are curious about learning more, check out dreamcloudsleep.com and their $200 off offer today.
