I wasn't sure you good a bed in a box until I saw it on my doorstep. It took a couple of able bodies to slide the 97 lb box up the stairs, but all  ended well. Unboxing was a sight to be seen. Simply lay out on the foundation, then a quick cut and peeling of the plastic and poof, the mattress was ready for a good night's sleep.  Certainly a different feel from a coil mattress but so easy and comfortable to sleep on. I look forward to many years of tranquil nights.
