Buying a bed

Its a pine box with a sheet of thin wood(now plastic board) on to, stapled in... thats it, nothing else... only 'circulation' it gives is after you accidentilly put you're foot through it when rotating mattress:D

The bases generally aren’t solid and also slatted inside and with wider gaps but layered with that plastic sack material which does breathe.

Depends from one mattress to another obviously. Some will even have a warning on that they are made for a slatted bed only etc.
 
Well Beds Online just screwed up my order. They finally delivered, but they delivered the Firm instead of the Medium. Great.

So now hopefully I will get the correct one next week.
 
Just to let everyone know that now Beds Online has stopped responding to me. So I don't know when or if I will get the correct replacement mattress. If they don't make a plan I may have to reverse the credit card transaction.
 
In about 60 days of trying one of the new internet mattress in a box guys. There are a ton now and I believe talkaboutsleep.com has reviews on most. Basic premise is some sort of foam base layer with some additional latex or memory foam layers on top. They ship it in a box and give you a $0 cost 120 sleep trial. Prices are generally < 1k for a King. I'm trying Brooklyn Bedding at the moment. I'm pretty happy, but the $0 cost to return has me thinking I might want to try a couple other things. If it's a return they donate it (some have you donate it) and they just build this into their business model. Casper is the big player in this market, but their beds seem to only get mid-level reviews although their advertising is great.
How exactly does this work with importing an item like this? I somehow think a $0 would not apply to SA
 
Help would be much appreciated. I am looking for a queen mattress and considering these in order of preference:

1. https://www.themattresswarehouse.co.za/product/cloud-nine-superior-comfort-mattress/?size=queen

2. https://www.themattresswarehouse.co.za/product/cloud-nine-comfort-plush-mattress/?size=queen

3. https://www.themattresswarehouse.co.za/product/cloud-nine-airborne-mattress/?size=queen

Which would you go for? I am about 90kg but looking/trying/hoping to loose some weight!

Many thanks :)
