Hello! I have been struggling to find a decent well priced bed in a box. Preferably it would be available through amazon, but if not that's alright too! I am 5'3", around 230 pounds, sleep 75% of the time on my stomach and 25% on my side, I prefer more firm mattresses, and I tend to sleep a bit warm. What suggestions do you have for affordable bed in a box's that would work best for me? Thank you!

Edit: I have decided to go with the Helix Twilight Luxe. I'll update what I think about it after I get it.

Update: I've been using the Helix Twilight Luxe for about a month now, and I am really liking it so far! The reviews that I saw about it not having great edge support when sitting on the edge of the mattress are true, but it isn't that terrible and also wasn't really a priority for me. It is very firm and perfect for sleeping on my stomach and not causing soreness when sleeping on my sides. There was no chemical smell or anything when unpacking it, and while the box said it would be completely decompressed within 2 hours, I waited about 2 days before using it, and it was perfect. Overall, this mattress is much better than my last one was, and I would recommend it if you don't plan to sit on the edges too much and aren't able to go to a mattress store in person.

I'm finally making the big move from Chicago to LA next month and I'm trying to figure out the whole mattress situation.

I've been sleeping on the same hand-me-down mattress for like 6 years now and it's basically a taco at this point (the middle is super sunken it difficult to get out in the morning). I'm NOT bringing this torture device with me to California.

I'm looking for the best mattress in a box that won't completely destroy my moving budget. My new place is a second-floor apartment with narrow stairs, so something that comes compressed seems ideal. Plus I'll be dead tired after the move and just want to flop onto something comfortable without dealing with traditional mattress delivery windows.

I've been down the review rabbit hole for DAYS and my brain is fried from all the marketing buzzwords... like can we just talk about actual comfort and not make it sound like I'm sleeping on a NASA experiment?

Anyone have personal experience with mattress in a box brands that are actually good? I'm a side sleeper who runs hot, so something with decent edge support that doesn't sleeps hot would be ideal. Budget is around $800 for a queen.

Can't wait to join you all in the land of perfect weather and terrible traffic next month!
