The Best Mail Order Mattress: Why Everyone Loves It? | Puffy

Mail order mattresses have gained a lot of popularity recently, especially during the pandemic, for their ease of purchase. When you wanted to buy a new mattress before, you had to go to a brick-and-mortar store and bounce on a dozen mattresses before settling on one.

Now you can purchase the best mail order mattress online in just a few minutes.

What is the difference between buying a mattress at the store and online?

Buying a mattress was never something you’d look forward to. You had to test out a bunch of mattresses then schedule a costly delivery or find a way to bring it home on your own. When it arrived, it would take effort and time to navigate into your bedroom, especially if your room was on the second floor.

However, mail order mattresses come in a compact box with free delivery! All you have to do is unpack it and unroll it onto your bed frame. Thanks to its convenience and flexibility, consumers were able to get the best mail order mattresses - even during the lockdown. According to BedTimes Magazine, 47% of consumers preferred online mattress shopping in 2020.

What Are the Benefits of Buying a Mail Order Mattress? | Puffy

Not only can you purchase a mail-order mattress faster than a regular mattress, but you also get better prices, trial periods, faster returns, and long-lasting warranty. Here are all of the benefits of getting a mail order mattress:

Quick Shopping Experience

If you’re thinking about where to buy mattresses, you’re in luck. With the bloom of the online mattress industry, there are multiple options for you to choose from. You no longer have to move from one showroom to another, comparing mattresses and prices. You can do all that and more online. Before buying the best mail order mattress, you’ll easily find detailed comparisons on mattress types, sizes, and prices.

Not sure which mattress size is for you? Here’s our International Mattress Dimension Chart to find the perfect size for you.

Whether you’re looking for the best memory foam mattress to conform to your body or a hybrid mattress for extra support and stability, you will find it online. Everything you need to know about mattresses can be found in just a few minutes. Mail order mattresses offer consumers a smooth and quick shopping experience. There aren’t any pushy salespeople trying to pressure you into buying a mattress, you do things at your own convenience.

Comfy Trial Periods & Easy Returns

Have you ever bought a mattress you thought was comfortable only to wake up with back pain after a few days? Unfortunately, when you’re testing mattress comfort in brick-and-mortar stores, there’s no way to know if the mattress will properly support your body. One of the largest selling points for mail order mattresses is that many of them come with long trial periods.

A long trial period will give you the chance to try the mattress in the comfort of your home. It takes time for your body to adjust to a new mattress - the average time is from 4 to 8 weeks. As a result, it’s best to choose a mattress with a sleep trial longer than 30 nights. With a Puffy mattress, you get a 101-night sleep trial as well as free and easy returns if you return the mattress within the trial period. You’ll get refunded the full amount that you’ve paid - it’s a risk-free purchase!

The best mattress brands online will all have a long trial period but be sure to check on this before purchasing a mattress online.

Bed in a Box, Literally

Transporting a mattress used to be a hassle, whether you’re tying it to the top of your car or need a moving van for it. However, mail order mattresses are delivered through the mail, all Puffy mattresses are shipped and delivered within 2 to 5 business days - that’s probably less time than it’ll take you to visit multiple mattress showrooms.

When purchasing a boxed mattress, you no longer need to worry about moving a heavy mattress to your room or worse, carrying it upstairs. The mattress will arrive in an average-sized box that can easily be carried. All you need to do is unpack it and unroll it onto your bed frame. All of the Puffy mattresses can be used on various bed frames, box springs, adjustable frames, or even the floor! In a matter of minutes, your mattress will puff into shape and your bed will be ready.

Long-lasting Warranty

A lot of the best mail order mattress brands have extended warranty periods, with a minimum of 10 years or 15 years - some brands even have a lifetime warranty. Unlike a mattress showroom, where there’s limited warranty and in some cases, you’ll have to pay additional costs, Puffy offers a free lifetime warranty with all of its mattresses.

Most high-quality mattresses have an average lifespan of 7 and go up to 12 years. However, it’ll always be reassuring knowing that you can get a replacement if needed. With the Puffy guarantee, if anything ever goes wrong with your mattress, it’ll be replaced for free! Be sure to check the warranty before buying a mattress and if there are any additional costs.

Better Prices, Better Quality

Why are mattress prices better online? If you think it’s because the quality of mattresses in stores is better than what you’ll find online - you’re in for a surprise. Mattresses in brick-and-mortar stores are more expensive because of high mark-ups. The expenses of running a physical store, like rent, energy bills, and employee salaries, impact the mattress price. Unfortunately, the customer ends up paying for these overhead costs.

Online mattresses are also more affordable because they use cutting-edge scientific techniques in layering the mattress, which means it’s done faster and more precisely. Without a physical location holding them back, online mattress companies have the flexibility to lower their prices and have sales and discounts whenever they want!

A common thing we all do before buying almost anything online is checking the customer reviews of the product. What are people saying about it? Whether it is through the company’s website, social media platforms, or YouTube channel - you’ll find useful reviews and feedback that’ll help you make your decision.

Reading customer reviews and mattress comparisons will give you a better idea of what you’re buying - make sure you’re getting the best mail order mattress online.

Best Mail Order Mattresses

Now that you know where the good deals are, you’re probably asking yourself, what is the best mail order mattress?

Luckily, Puffy Mattresses are great for all sleeper types! With any mattress purchase, you will get free shipping, a 101-night sleep trial period, easy returns, and lifetime warranty.

FAQ’s

Is an online mattress right for me?

You can find various mattress types online for the lowest prices in the market, cheaper than in-store mattresses. If you’re looking for a memory foam, innerspring, latex, or hybrid mattress - you’ll find high-quality products from multiple online mattress brands, like Puffy Mattresses.

Can a mail order mattress be returned?

Many online brands allow for easy returns if the mattress is still within the trial period. Before purchasing a mattress, make sure it has a comfortable trial period, a quick and simple return policy, and a long warranty period. Puffy Mattresses come with a 101-night trial period, free returns, and a lifetime warranty - one of the best services in the mattress industry.

Which online mattress is the best?

The most popular online mattress on the market is the memory foam mattress because it conforms to your body and provides support. Puffy was ranked the #1 mattress in America and our best seller is the Puffy Lux Hybrid. This mattress merges the best of a memory foam mattress and an innerspring mattress, it offers body contouring, temperature control, stability, and full support.

Is it better to sleep on a firm mattress or soft?

The best level of firmness is usually a medium firm mattress. If the mattress is too soft, it’ll sink in and won’t fully support the body. If a mattress is too firm, it’ll be uncomfortable to sleep on and can lead to body aches. A medium firm mattress, like the Puffy Lux Hybrid, offers the right amount of support and comfort.

Can you sleep on a mail order mattress right away?

Yes, you can sleep on mail order mattresses right away. The mattress in a box needs to be unpacked and unrolled onto your bed frame, then it’ll puff in just a few minutes and will be ready to sleep on.

What is the best mail order mattress for side sleepers?

For side sleepers, if the mattress is too soft, it can lead to pain in the shoulders and hips area. Side sleepers should consider a medium firm or medium plush mattress to provide an extra level of contouring support to the body. For an all foam mattress, the Puffy Mattress is a great choice. For a mattress that offers extra comfort for all sleeper types, there’s the Puffy Lux Hybrid - a hybrid mattress that combines the contour-adapt firm base and the plush contour top layer.

How long do mail order mattresses last?

How long a mail order mattress lasts depends on the mattress type and its quality. The average lifespan of a mattress is from 7 to 10 years. Memory foam mattresses have a longer lifespan than innerspring mattresses, especially a high-density memory foam mattress like the Puffy Original mattress.

Conclusion
