Slightly off-topic: Is there a similar website for sofas?
When I moved out, I was in a hurry and bought one after testing it for comfort for about thirty seconds. Turns out, it is, and most their products are drop-shipped, low quality garbage.
It started falling apart after a month. Been postponing the purchase for about two years because I am not able to find reliable sources of information.
Great sources for a mattress though. Guess I will cop one soon, as I bought it from Wayfair, same shit. Good riddance!

Derek from NapLab is also a great source. I did my own research before finding his website, but his recommendations matched what I had chosen. It also makes me chuckle to tell friends that a man named Derek will personally email you to tell you what mattress to buy.

Not only will he personally email you, but he will keep engaging to help you out. He recommended a mattress that fit the budget but didn’t ship to Alaska. After I told him that, he went out of his way to help me find another company that did. Ended up emailing back and forth with him a few times before landing on one of his recommendations.
I found him via and old AskReddit thread he started and kept going.
A+ effort from him.

The website looks interesting, but mattresses are a regional deal. Yaay!
Meaning people from North America will find the website very helpful I’m sure. But I go there and I see a bunch of mattresses I literally can’t buy.
I think the only mattresses available on both sides of the Atlantic that I can look up reviews on are the IKEA ones. Which don’t get glowing reviews.
I wonder if anyone can point me to a similar site for mattresses available in Europe. I currently have a Sleepwell Red Orthopedic which I’m pretty happy with, but it’s damaged (not warrantyable either - damaged during moving) and I’m wondering if there’s something even better for me out there.

You may want to check bett1 out. If I remember correctly, the founder created the company after being frustrated with the industry marketing tactics. Their product range is small, no marketing fluff, but they are quite popular in Germany.

Hmm, I like how easy it is to select sizes and things on their website. I dislike one bit so far:
Feels a bit misleading even if they do clarify it.
