- We bought a Douglas @sleepdouglas mattress-in-a-box with our own money. What is it really like?
Buying a mattress online, that you've never even touched and then it being shipped to your home squished in a box does seem a little odd. But it's becoming more common. Is it a fad? How good can it be? Is it a waste of money? Is it the best thing ever? Has online shopping finally got us to the point that we never have to leave the house? I set out to find those answers!
We buy everything. Mattress, bed frame, pillows, bedding, and mattress cover. We're going for the full experience. We unbox and assemble all our goodies, use it for a month and then give you our honest opinion.
Will we miss our old mattress? Will this change our sleeping lives? Check it out!

Anna thank you for sharing I have been looking for a mattress for some time and after viewing your video I did order the Douglas Mattress, you are an excellent sales lady!!!!
What a compliment! Thank you! I know you'll love the mattress, it's so cozy! Sweet dreams!
thanks for this. I was nervous and it got me to pull the trigger and go for it. Liked that you did the extended sleep before reviewing. Video was fun too. Looking forward to more videos from you - nice to see someone who actually thinks through the product.
Thank you! My brother just bought the mattress too and spent the first day just hanging out on it! It's the most supportive and comfortable mattress I've ever slept on. I hope you love it as much! Thank you for the awesome comment and compliments!
Thanks for the in-depth review 🙂, I just ordered the Douglas Alpine yesterday.
Appreciate the "after 5 weeks review", we don't see enough of long term use.
I like your vibe, keep it up 😉
Thank you! We still LOVE the mattress. On the weekend, I was finally setting up the previous mattress in our guest room. And I laid on it for the first time since switching. Never going back! It's a world of difference. Thank you and enjoy your new Douglas!!
Thanks for sharing your experience 😊
Thanks for watching! We still think this is the best bed ever and it's been a year now. Still love it!
You’re a delight. Thanks for the video.
Thank you so much! Your pup is so adorable! Brown pups are the cutest, in my opinion! 🧡
So glad that you shared this. I will buy this mattress next time I need one. We found buying a mattress a challenge.We bought a new mattress two years ago. The first one we bought was too firm and they allowed us to return it. We then bought a Serta and it is just a little soft so probably won't keep it for the ten year standard. How do you test a mattress by laying on it for five min. in the store???
That was what we said when first thought about ordering a mattress online: what difference is there to sitting on a mattress in a store, or ordering one online? So ordered online and don't regret it one bit! I'd honestly order this mattress again. Our previous mattress was a Serta too - and it was too soft and not supportive. All the best in the new year!
Just ordered this and was worries so checked out this video. I am coming from the bloom earth and it's so incredibly uncomfortable. This video has made me less worried. Looking forward to trying it out
It's been almost a year that we've had the Douglas mattress and we wouldn't change to anything else. It is the best mattress I've ever slept on. I hope you enjoy it a much as we do!
Thank you for this!! I was humming and hawing about this mattress. I gotta get one each for my son and for myself. This was the best review I have seen ever. You even unboxed everything and showed what to expect and how it looks in the box and all that which was very, very helpful for the rest of us. Thanks again from Calgary!! does the box spring come with the mattress?
Glad it was helpful! We still think it's the best mattress we've ever slept on, hands down. And it's been well over a year. The box spring is bought and shipped separate. Thank you so much for the great comment!
Thanks for making my choice easier
Awesome! My brother just got the same mattress and pillow and says he sleeps like a baby. And that he doesn't wake up with a sore back now! I hope you love it just as much 😁
I have the beauty rest gel perforated pillow. It's thinner, shaped for your head and breathes
I'm going to Google this pillow right now! Thanks for the suggestion!
Thanks for the awesome review! I have a question, does the memory foam feel like quicksand? I mean if you shift positions is it hard to do?
We were actually worried about that because when memory foam first came out, it was like quicksand. But, Ralph and I both agree it's easier to move around on this bed then our previous pillow-topper style mattress. And that was a high-end brand name mattress. It's like you float on the Douglas, you don't sink in. Honestly, I couldn't believe a mattress could feel like this.
I'm anxiously waiting for my alpine douglas...
Thanks for the review!
It's been a year now and I can't imagine sleeping on another mattress. I still think it's the most comfortable and supportive mattress. Sweet dreams when your Alpine arrives!
Do you have any experience with their podium adjustable bed frame? I am thinking of buying one but with a no return policy I want to be sure its good!
Sorry, no I don't. I can understand why you're looking for feedback when there's a no return policy! Sorry I can't help with this one 😞
I may have missed this but what model did you go with?
Thanks!
We have the Douglas Original. And I'm still loving it! For real!
Do you need a box spring with these mattresses? I didn't think it was needed
You are correct - we use one for height because our bed frame is too low. You don't need a box spring.
@@HomeCulture sorry, I think you said that I'm the video. Thanks for the info. Just bought one so I'm pretty excited
@@cmac178 You have every reason to be excited! It's been well over a year and I absolutely love crawling into bed. It's still the most comfortable bed I've slept in. Hope you love it as much too!
I git this and so weird I was expecting the sheets and pillows to have the red lines on them and the Douglas logo but it's from good morning America? I'm confused? Are the sheets and pillows not actualy douglas mattress brand? Do you know the answer to this?
I think I can explain. Good Morning is the company, also known as Bon Matin in French speaking parts of Canada. Douglas is the name of the first and most well known mattress they make. It's a Canadian company. The mattress with have the name Douglas on it, but the sheets, mattress pad etc will say Good Morning or Bon Matin. I've seen the Logan & Cove mattress from Good Morning and it says Logan & Cove in grey all over it. 😃
@HomeCulture thanks so much for the reply I'm currently waiting on the mattress to get here I have the sheets and pillows it came super fast hah. Thanks again. Great info
@@j.t.1242 Have fun opening up the mattress, it's kinda cool as it puffs up! And it does it so fast! Sweet dreams when it comes in 😁
Memory foam pants - I have 2 pairs...
Didn't even know they existed! 😄
You talk a whole lot though
You are not the first or only person to say that to me!
It's rude of you to say that though. The video is timestamped for anyone not interested in listening to everything she has to say, so you're just being mean here.
@@HomeCulturethanks for the review! It helps.
