What is distressed inventory?
Every once in a while, we overstock an item, and it ends up sitting in our warehouse for longer than we'd like. When that happens, we take some of the mattresses out of the box and let them decompress to see how they're doing. Some of the mattresses we took out of the box didn't decompress as much as they should, so the overall performance and comfortability aren't as consistent as we'd like.
What does that mean for you?
When you buy a distressed inventory mattress, that means the mattress isn't perfect and the performance and comfortability vary from item to item. However, you're also getting a great deal on one of our most popular mattresses. We do not accept refunds or returns on items sold as is. All sales are final.
Innerspring with typical interlocked coils? "Pillow tops" made from rejected cotton balls? Couldn't pay me enough to go back to that ancient, dated garbage. Technologies change. Some people's opinions don't simply because they don't try new things.
This is probably a safe/good buy, but because it's only an 8" mattress, don't expect top tier quality.

Probably in for one.
I bought a Casper "bed-in-a-box" 7 years ago. Still haven't slept on a more comfortable mattress and it's not showing any signs of wear.
I also recently bought a hybrid mattress for the RV, it came in a box. Nothing wrong with it, unrolled and expanded just fine.
Better than dealing with annoying sales people at a mattress or furniture store.
Also the bed in a box I just bought (Ashley) has no fire retardant chemicals and had no odor when I opened it up.
So, Google is your friend on this, pal. Prepare to go down the rabbit hole. Search for the word "mattress" along with any combination of words like: toxicity, foam toxicity, fire retardant, formaldehyde, pfoe, pfte, voc, off-gassing, benzene, carcinogens, etc.
ALL foam mattresses (of which this mattress is made — see Amazon q&a and reviews sections), are 100% guaranteed to be manufactured with one or more of the above. The only types of mattresses and bedding guaranteed to be free of them are 100% latex, 100% cotton, or 100% wool. And they are very expensive. There are many third party "certification labels" that attempt to "validate" (through their own scientific research and testing) the healthfulness of mattresses, but the only ones that I personally trust are GOTS, GOLS, OEKO-TEK and eco-Institut. I would not trust CertiPur, as it is rumored to be created by mattress manufactures themselves to allegedly counteract, obfuscate and confuse the playfield.
You decide if any of this is true, false or worth your time to worry about. I'm of the mindset that while none of us can avoid 100% of environmental threats, it is our duty to avoid as much as we possibly control (diet, vices, etc, and chemicals too). Quite simply, it results in a more enjoyable and less encumbered existence, afaic.
Either way, wise of you to be inquisitive about a product that'll be inches away from your brain and lungs for roughly 1/3 or your life.

Compared to a luxury carpet is $2.5/sqft with $0.5/sqft padding.
buy 6 of these and make an entire room that's all bed!

The 10-inch is obviously much better because the memory foam top layer is thicker, but even then its pretty basic. I recommend this brand to young guys on a budget who don't want to buy a sketchy used one.
