I bought several mattresses two years ago that were tightly rolled up and sealed. The manufacturer is owned by a friend of the family. He explained how revolutionary the process is and how the mattresses would be shipped for far less money but expand perfectly upon arrival. Well, they didn't. Apparently they sat on the truck for too long and all of the mattresses did not fully expand in the corners. We got such a good deal on them, and being sent from a friend, we did not say anything. But that's the last time I'll buy a mattress that comes rolled up. I absolutely believe that some of these mattresses may not fully expand just like what happened to the corners of my mattresses.

Bed in a box can, and will degrade over (much) time. Coils want to be decompressed back to their natural state. That said, a good hybrid with individual pocketed coils will only show minor, and targeted defects, even in worst case scenarios. Think of it as you might a TV, wherein one pixel blows instead of a whole panel.

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.

Beware! I ordered a mattress and then checked the reviews on amazon and got scared of bedbug infestation so I tried to cancel the order after 20 minutes through eBay cancellation request. But they sent me a message saying that the order is already shipped. So they are honest that there is absolutely no cancellation. So for some reason they must sell these. Hopefully it's not because of bedbugs
Don't say bed bugs randomly to scare people. Nobody here said that they received mattress with bed bugs.

Me too. Just got a 10 inch queen delivered even though it was listed as 8 inches. I'm letting it sit for a few days to expand but so far there is nothing indicating any major issues. Maybe some corners are a little compressed but I just opened it. Now, comfort wise it feels like a cheap mattress for sure. Nowhere near my 13 inch innserspring pillowtop that was NOT a bed in a box but I knew that going in. What I hate about bed in a box is that when they are hybrid (meaning they have springs) the springs are always really weak because they have to be to be able to roll up the mattress and you feel it when you lay down. Anyway I recommend this deal for someone looking for a cheap second or third guest mattress.

If someone reminds me I can post a pic in a couple days when it is fully expanded.
any update on the picture?

I noticed many companies have similar "reviews". Based on my research, bed bugs travel by humans/luggage with opportunity to feed, which favors hotels and homes where people sleep and stay stationary for hours at a time. So it is probably BS that they are infested at a factory. I wonder if it is some crazy disgruntled person posting these reviews everywhere.

Anyway, if you're still scared, leave the mattress in a hot car (above 120F) for a day if you live in a hot area. Or, just leave it in a corner in your garage or basement for 6-9 months. They die after that time period if they don't feed. Make sure you do this after you inflate/open it up. Don't heat/freeze/store it in the compressed state.

Assuming that there are bed bugs, in order to breathe they are going to have to pull oxygen out of an environment that has been evacuated of almost all the air, and to be able to breathe in that environment for at least a day or two minimum while the package is delivered, so they are either going to have super duper lungs or they will die extremely quickly.

As an argument, I think this is a non-starter, it is more likely we will introduce bed bugs to the clean mattress, from our travels to hotels etc.

I wonder how much if at all, the mattress will degrade when left in the evacuated state. Does anyone have experience with a mattress in a box that was unopened for an extended time period?

An interesting read [terrycralle.com]

Same here! Was totally surprised to see the 10" King version show up. Mine was brand new as well, and appears to be expanding without issue. Smilie

Bought a 8" twin -- received a 10" twin

Box came extremely beat up, with half the tape missing and the rest barely hanging on.

Mattress came rolled up and wrapped in few layers of plastic film, then bag.

I actually have another Linenspa mattress and am familiar with how they're packaged and as I was removing the plastic film, I could tell the bag surrounding the mattress was not vacuum sealed. This was confirmed as the bag showed a large partial tear/rip at the top of the bag (definitely was not cut/sliced when I was removing the plastic film, otherwise it would have been a clean cut vs ragged tear).

I fear that they gave me a previously opened mattress (e.g. potentially a customer return?) vs 'distressed' stock. Did anyone else have a similar experience?
