Personally I never have bought a mattress online and like to try and feel the mattress in store. However my eldest two kids have bought mattresses online, but I’m not sure if it was from Mattress in a box. It can be a good option to buy a mattress online when you look at convenience and price, however it does involve risks

I must admit we do like to go to the various showrooms of stores that sell mattresses and try them out for comfort. It is important for us to see how a mattress feels and the level of comfort and back support. These features really can vary from store to store.

I think the best thing you can do is visit a show room for places like Snooze or Harvey Norman. That way you can try out the mattresses for yourself in store and see what feels best for you. There are so many different options on the market! I prefer ones with chiropractic support personally.

There are many differant brands of mattress that come delivered in a box.
I purchased one from Aldi for my daughters single bed many years ago and its still going strong and wonderfully comfortable.
They are heavy though so I had to ask a man in the carpark for help getting it into my car

I have heard taht one negative is that it’s almost impossible to pack it up again if you decide you want to return it. So I guess you need to be pretty sure before you buy – the return guarantee isn’t worth a lot if you can’t physically pack it for return.

I was very skeptical of those in a box too! As i had only previously bought them from mattress stores, then hated that i had to always pay delivery and lug a big mattress into the rooms needed. I bought the Aldi special buy ones for a spare room once and couldnt believe the quality! It was more comfortable than some mattresses ive bought in the past and doesnt ‘sink’ or feel weak on the edges. Do your research into reputable ones, but Aldi i can definitely recommend. More on a firm medium side of things.
