Here's the GHI's round-up of mattresses in a box. Hybrid mattresses are a combination of pocket springs and memory foam, designed to provide both balanced support and contouring comfort. Remember it's normal for the mattress to have a slight odour, but this tends to dissipate after some time. The mattress may take up to an hour to fully expand, and a few days to fully firm up. Your mattress should then begin expanding and taking shape (and no, it won’t fit back inside the box once opened). Unwrap and fold the mattress, before tearing away the inner plastic. Position your rolled-up mattress on any solid or slatted bed base and remove the outer layer of plastic wrap. Unbox the mattress on its side, taking care to avoid using a sharp object to open the box as you run the risk of slicing your mattress. Move the box into the room where your mattress will be based. However, the boxes are still quite hefty (typically weighing from 20kg up 50kg), but the delivery teams will usually do all the hard work for you. It also makes them easier to manoeuvre around your home. These cost savings are passed onto the consumer, making mattresses in a box slightly more affordable than their counterparts. Their smaller size means delivery and packaging costs for the manufacturer are cheaper, and more can be squeezed into transit vans, lowering their carbon footprint. The mattresses are rolled and vacuum packed to squeeze them into their boxes which typically measures 50 x 50 x 110cm. How and why are mattresses in a box made? We also asked our testers if they would happily buy the mattress and if they’d recommend it to friends and family. If the mattress happens to have any specific claims, we also covered these in the questionnaire. Testers were sent a questionnaire, devised by our team of experts in the GHI, and were asked to comment on their mattress in the following areas: performance/comfort, design and overall perception.
