More and more we’re hearing about how a good night’s sleep is essential for good health. The older I get, the more I believe it, and if you have kids, you know you need a solid night’s sleep. Tossing and turning on an uncomfortable mattress all night means you’ll likely wake up feeling sluggish and go on to have an unproductive day.
I’d been looking for the right mattress for quite some time. My husband and I hadn’t been able toย agree on whether to get a firm or a softer mattress. I also have issues with a sore neck if my mattressย and pillow aren’t just right. Then, I was contacted by OtterBedย (they have perfect timing) and asked to try one of their mattresses. After learningย about them, I thoughtย this might be the right mattress for us.
So, to cut right to the chase, we’ve been sleeping on our new bed for awhile, and we are loving it!ย I honestly have been raving about theย OtterBed mattress. It’s been a little while since it arrived, andย it’s just as comfortable as it was the very first night I slept on it.
How can Iย describe the OtterBed? I really wish you couldย lie down on one, but let me tell you what it IS and what it ISN’Tย (in my opinion). It is NOT a memory foam-type bed. I know lots of people like them, but I didn’t want one. I feel like they are too soft, and you sink too far into them. When you want to move, you’re kind of stuck. OtterBed is also NOT a traditional mattress, which can be too hard, and worse yet, on a cheap mattress, you can feel the coils! What OtterBed IS, is a perfect combination of everything you’ve been looking for rolled up (literally…more on that later) into one perfect mattress!ย
When you lie down on an OtterBed, you do sink into it (a little), but not so far that you feel you’re sinking DEEP into the mattress. It conforms to your body and supports you, but it’s still easy to move. It’s hard to explain the feeling of comfort and support you feel with the OtterBed. That feeling is even betterย if andย when you have any kind of soreness or achiness!
The first night my husband and I slept on our newย OtterBed, we woke up in the morning and looked at each other in amazement, like โWhat just happened?โ We were absolutely shocked that we’d both slept through the night. Neither of us could believe that we’d slept so soundly!ย
When I went to OtterBed’s site, I learned whyย theย mattress is so comfortable. You actually do get the best of both traditional coil mattresses and memory foam beds. Independent coil springs isolate movement so you donโt interrupt your partnerโs sleep. The MicroPurโข foam breathes as you move. This air movement releases heat and moisture, leaving you with a cool sleeping surface. And unlike memory foam, you wonโt feel that sinking feeling.
Here’s a little bit more about the company–OtterBed is online, and your bed will be delivered to your door after you order. That means there are no delivery people, and you don’t need to set aside a dayย to wait at home for a furniture delivery.ย
Your OtterBed is rolled tightly and arrives boxed. Once you unroll it and place it on your foundation, you’ll see it gradually expand. It’s ready to use in 30 minutes.
Below isย my new bed in its box, what it look liked when it was still rolled up in plastic, and when it was first unrolled. You’ll see in the last photos that once it’s unrolled, it will expand.
By the way, we put our OtterBed on our existing box spring, but you can use this mattressย on virtually any kind of platform, including on an adjustable bed.
Here’s how the mattress expands when you unroll it. Check out the before and after below. Theย first photo was taken shortly after unrolling the OtterBed mattress, and the second was taken later in the evening. Our dog, Rosie, finds our OtterBed very comfortable too.ย
Head over to the OtterBed site to learn more about this incredible mattress, check out the competitive prices,ย and theย no-risk, 100-night sleep test guarantee. I know you’ll be impressed!

This is the first time I have heard about an OtterBed mattress. I am usually too afraid to buy a mattress without trying it out. I shall have to look into this further.

Wow, this sounds like a wonderful mattress! I love my current mattress, it’s so soft and you just don’t want to get out my bed. But this would be a good mattress for when my current one is ready to be replaced.
