Construction & materials

BedInABox OriginalDreamCloud
LayersDensity CoolRest® Advanced Memory Foam, Density High Quality Sure Align Support Foam, Smooth Knit Cover.Quilted Tight Top, 1.5" foam quilted to a Cashmere blend cover (Density: 1.5lb, IFD: 17), 1" Gel-Infused Memory Foam (Density: 2.5lb, IFD: 10), 2.5" Support Foam (Density: 1.7lb, IFD: 20), 8" Individually Wrapped Innerspring Coil System with Edge Support, 1" Firm Support Foam (Density: 1.6lb, IFD: 36).
CoverSoft polyester knit cover for comfort and stretch, perfect for memory foam. Polyester fabrics and fibers are incredibly strong and durable, resists abrasion and dries quickly. Breathable for better temperature control. Accentuates the memory foam feel.The DreamCloud mattress is wrapped in a Cashmere blend cover that is soft-to-the-touch (Made with Polyester, Rayon and Cashmere). The "tight-top" design of quilting the cover with the first foam layer offers added comfort and some loft - but not quite as much as loft as the DreamCloud Premier with the Euro Top. Whilst the cover isn't removable or washable it will keep you cozy and cool thanks to the breathable blend of fabrics.

Comfort3 lb density memory foam rebounds (takes it shape) quicker making it easier to change positions. Open cell structure increases air flow, contributing to a cooler sleep.DreamCloud's stay-put technology means you won't feel a thing when your partner rolls over. Individually wrapped coils mean vibrations don't travel because the coils are not directly connected to each other; therefore, when pressure is placed on one coil, it will not drag others down with it. The supportive foam layer also drastically reduces feeling any movements. Gel-Infused Memory Foam helps you sleep cool. Innerspring coils promote airflow better than all-foam mattresses. The combination of gel foam with the quilted cover helps regulate your temperature.
SupportThe CoolRest® advanced memory foam has been softened (just slightly), creating more contouring qualities, while retaining the same great support. CoolRest® advanced memory foam perfectly contours to your body providing improved pressure relief to reduce tossing & turning. Sure Align support foam designed to support & correctly align your spine so you can sleep better. This works in tandem with the memory foam and provides perfect support for long lasting comfort and helps to distribute body weight evenly across the mattress.No matter what position you prefer to sleep in, individually wrapped coils adapt to your sleep shape. High-density gel memory foam relieves your pressure points by diagnosing where you need support the most. The foam cradles your shoulders, hips and problem areas by gently contouring to your body. The memory foam layer cushions the body at its most sensitive areas, like the pressure points while offering that much-loved traditional memory foam feel of softness, cushion and relief. The support layer provides resistance against the body and stops you sinking in too far and feeling the coils below. Edge-to-edge innerspring coils create a supportive surface that flexes to conform to individual curves and contours of the body. Three rows of higher-gauge coils are used for the perimeter to increase the edge support and reduce the "rolling off" the edge feeling. The base support layer provides the structure and stability for all the layers above.

FAQs

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.

DreamCloud

Do DreamCloud mattresses last?

A DreamCloud mattress is expected to last between eight to 10 years or more. Thanks to its hybrid coil and foam construction, DreamCloud mattresses are quite durable. It's also considerably thick.

Is DreamCloud a soft or firm mattress?

The DreamCloud mattress has a medium firm feel, rating around 6 on the 10-point firmness scale. This is within the range most sleepers tend to prefer, but it is on the firmer end of that range. The DreamCloud is a high-profile model, measuring 14 inches thick, so it may require sheets with deeper pockets than average.

Is DreamCloud good for heavy sleepers?

Yes, the DreamCloud mattress is a great choice for heavier sleepers. It offers a balance of comfort and support. The foam layers are deep and plush, but the mattress still manages to provide ample support for heavier sleepers.
