What's a box mattress?

Mattress-in-a-box products are compressible foam mattresses that are rolled, and packed into compact boxes. This makes them easier to handle and transport than traditional ones.

This packaging method not only simplifies moving and shipping but also is convenient for consumers.

Watch the TikTok video below:

Viewers asked about the mattress's comfort and durability, while others shared their experiences with owning one.
