A bed in a box?

We needed a new bed for our brand new guest room.  We looked a couple of places, but one of our biggest problems is we don't have a vehicle to move things in.  I can only get so much in the convertible with the top down -- and I don't think a bed would fit.

So our next option was to start looking at what could be shipped to us and we found a "bed in a box" at Sam's Club.  All the reviewer's were raving at what a great bed it was and how comfortable it was and yada...yada.....yada.  So what the heck.....we ordered it.

It came in two boxes.  One for the frame and one for the mattress.  Believe it or not....here's the mattress in the box.

So we carried it upstairs and began working on it.  It literally took less than 15 minutes to get it all set up.  The frame was like two cot frames that we just unfolded and hooked together.

We then took the mattress out of it's box.

Laid it on the frames -- it was only about 2 inches think.  We cut the plastic wrapper off of it and it started to expand. 

And voila`.......we magically had a brand new double bed.

We have to be totally honest......it was fast, it was easy, it was very reasonably priced, and it's COMFORTABLE!
