Our new home #5 | the bedroom part one

The mattress. One room which is still missing up on the blog is our bedroom, which is not so easy to take pictures of. Given the fact that we live in the first floor and have a huge tree in front of living room makes it a bit darker than the other rooms. Around noon (if the sun is shining) the room is super light but I am rarely home around that time.

Let’s talk about our mattress today! I’ve been having my old bed for quite a long time but as soon as my boyfriend and I moved together we decided to get a bigger 1,60 metre bed (in the end we should’ve taken the 1,80m). Sleep comfort is very important and you all know that mattresses are most of the times the expensive part of a bed. I am a huge fan of boxspring beds but they are way too expensive. Therefore I was looking for a similar mattress system for a good price. I found this Danish start-up DreamZebra through a friend of mine.

Edit: please do not order from Dreamzebra. Apparently the start up no longer exists!

WHICH KIND OF MATTRESS TO PICK

Arranging a flat takes time. Even more time to pick the right type of mattresses as there are so many different ones: innerspring mattresses, hybrid ones, waterbeds, latex mattresses and many more types.

The ones from DreamZebra are memory foam-latex-mattresses with a three-layering flexibility, which is important for the air circulation of the mattress. If you have a slut frame you musn’t worry about that but we wanted to place ours on the pavement only. Wwe didn’t have a bedframe, because DreamZebra promised that their mattresses would also do without slut frame. The memory foam tend to heat up but the latex layer in between cools the upper layer down. Their mattresses consist of a top layer which normally would heat up but in between the third one there is a second cooling down material, which prevents it.

COMFORT WITH DREAMZEBRA

The mattress adapts to shape and weight of your body. Moreover, it prevents pressure point which ususally make you change your position a lot of times during the night. We already slept really well on it but even better in combination of a slut frame. We an upholstered bed, which I am madly in love with. One of the main reasons wasn’t comfort but sleeping a little bit higher, which is much better in our eyes.

PRICE

In conclusion, I would definitely spend more on bed furniture, because it’s good for your health and lasts longer. Dream Zebra’s mattresses start with a size of 80cm with 300€ up to 700€, which is definitely a great deal.
