FAQs

Awara

What firmness level is Awara?

Awara classifies the Natural Hybrid as a 7 on a firmness scale of 1 to 10, indicating it's a medium-firm mattress. This level of firmness is typically suitable for back, stomach, and combination sleepers, but may be too firm for those who sleep on their side.

Is the Awara mattress really non toxic?

Awara has chosen to use a combination of natural latex and individually-wrapped pocket coils in their mattresses, avoiding the use of any poly foams or memory foams. This results in a mattress that provides luxurious support without the use of toxic materials.

Is Awara mattress really organic?

Yes, the Awara mattress is constructed with GOLS-certified Latex and GOTS-certified organic cotton. In addition, for every mattress sold, Awara, a ClimatePartner-certified company, plants 10 trees.

BedInABox Original

What sleep setup do you recommend for my BedInABox?

Each BedInABox® mattress is designed to work with any standard foundation. Foam mattresses need as much direct support under them as possible in order to properly support the sleepers. Keeping a slatted or platform foundation under your BedInABox® will help you avoid mattress sagging or breakdown of the memory foam. It is recommended to pair your BedInABox® mattress with the Clever Connect foundation or the MotionInABox™ Adjustable Frame.

Is there a weight limit on your mattresses?

BedInABox® uses high-quality support foam, so there are no weight limits for any of their memory foam mattresses. However, certain foundations do have weight limits. Their foundations are rated for up to 1000 lbs.

Why is BedInABox® the best Mattress in a Box?

BedInABox® claims to be the best Mattress in a Box because they are the only brand that makes their own foam, assembles every mattress, and ships it all from their own factory in North Carolina. This means that every component of your BedInABox® is made in America and under one roof.
