Buying a new bed is not something you do every day and given the long-term investment it is; we would like to make this process as easy as possible for you.

How does it work?

We know that choosing a new bed is not always easy. We know that even after you have taken much time to make your selection, sometimes you require a different level of comfort. All that we ask of you is to give your body time to get used to your new bed and the support it is giving you. Most people need a couple of weeks for their bodies to make the transition between the old and new mattress.

By taking your time testing your new bed, you can be sure you’re making the right decision. Don’t make a hasty decision as it may further complicate your selection.

Conditions for the 100 Day Comfort Trial

1. Mattresses must be tried for at least 30 nights before an exchange takes place.
2. We ask that you invest in a waterproof mattress protector purchased through us. Should you not purchase a waterproof mattress protector through us, you may not exchange your mattress.
3. You can exchange your bed for another of equal or higher value.
4. A difference in lower priced models is non-refundable.
5. If you make use of the 100 Day Trial, you are responsible for the delivery costs
6. Products used in the 100 Day Comfort trial cannot be refunded, only replaced with an alternative product.
7. Limit of one trial per person.
