![Need a new mattress?](https://909c0d3efc63d4674cb4-62e8289cb2b35d2d929ba8c1b8f1d0d0.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com/3559-5e5683fdcb414.jpg)
We have been replacing everyone's mattresses. A daunting task I might add.
When you need to replace 4 mattresses, cost becomes a huge factor.
I have heard a lot about the mattresses that are delivered in a box. You then have to unroll them and allow them to expand. Interesting concept. A few people that I know that had previously purchased a similar mattress loved it. So why not give it a try. As an added bonus, I was able to order a mattress off Amazon. 2-day delivery!
After a little research, a short reading of reviews, I decided to try out the Zinus Brand Mattress.
Of course it was delivered in a trusty box. But it was truly what was on the inside that made this purchase great.
Zinus has a great sense of humor.
Naturally, we pulled the mattress out of the box. This in itself was a comical experience.

This was a neat experience. I am still in awe of the process. Admittedly I don’t understand the process... But hey it works. The mattress raised up to full capacity and has yet to fall down.

I left the mattress untouched for the full recommended time. (72 hours ) Then once the time passed, I replaced the old mattress with the new mattress.
So far everyone has slept well. It appears that everyone is happy overall with their new mattress.
The only complaint I have is the depth difference in a foam mattress and a typical box spring set. My oldest daughter took a lot of time adjusting to the height of the new mattress.
