sooooooo do the beds suck or what's the point here?

Buying a bed is like buying a car. The same jerkoff salesman will come up with so many creative ways to con folks into a sale so what's the difference in regards to buying beds online.

So the whole video boils down to zomg this is too expensive!!

I worked in a store that sold mattresses and we had cheap ones available for like ~$300 but they were absolutely dogshit quality and wouldn't last past 6 months probly. For mattresses spending more does get you a better product that should last for 10+ years.

no it's actually about mattress review sites and the money be exchanged between companies and the review sites, various lawsuits, and how sketchy the whole thing is.

Thank you for clarifying. I've never purchased a mattress online and it always seemed kinda shady, plus why the fuck would you buy a mattress without laying on it first?

Honestly everyone should go into a store and lay on at least 3 to 5 different mattresses for like 5 minutes each before making a decision. Let your body tell you which mattress feels most comfortable because getting good sleep is really important.

would you accept the word of a review website, bought out by the company they're reviewing after they went bankrupt because said product company sued them for writing a review they said wasn't favorable enough?

I'm assuming the cost to make a mattress is like $8 and they charge $500 is the point of the video

Cancel mattresses, sleep on hay!

It is but that vid barely scratched the surface of it.

Mattresses are insanely expensive given the materials they are made of, but you could just write that off as good business on their part. The bigger issue is that most mattresses use really shitty quality materials that don't last that long. The whole review thing isn't even that big a deal imo, since anyone who spends more than a minute reading that shit will see how obvious it is. Aside from sites that are straight up working for mattress companies, pretty much all the review sites get commissions from links to purchase the mattresses they review, so they're naturally going to have a positive spin on pretty much every mattress.

Ironically I do sleep on the floor, I actually wake up more refreshed than ever before and my back posture is a lot better.

The only reason I want a mattress now is because I don't want to become too familiar with Spiders.
