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.

Helix Midnight Luxe

Is the Helix Midnight Luxe worth it?

The Helix Midnight Luxe is recommended, especially for couples, due to its memory foam layers that minimize disturbance from a partner's movements. It's less firm than the original Midnight, making it more suitable for side sleepers.

Is Helix Midnight Luxe too soft?

The Helix Midnight Luxe, a hybrid mattress, is rated 6-7 out of 10 on the firmness scale, indicating medium firmness. It should be suitable for most people, providing both pressure relief and support through its combination of foam layers and coil unit.
