OMG that was funny
why are you afraid to open it?
Have you not seen the box opening videos on Pootube?
i guess not. the one's that i have seen, seem like the usual unboxing. is there one in particular i should see?
I've never watched any, but if you're expecting a snake-pops-out-of-a-can effect, don't! As I understand it, the mattress unrolls flat, then you leave it for X hours/days and it slowly puffs up to its actual size.
So what kind did you end up buying, DPB?

I can't remember exact ones, but they are in the realm of, 'I bought a box of stuff on the DarkWeb and here is the reveal!'

My ol'lady got one like that from BigLots for about half to two-thirds of what it would normally be.
It took about 10-12 hours to take shape, and was fully formed in about 24.
We have been using it for 4-5 years now, and it still seems fine.
Her box spring and frame sucks, but that is another story.

I didnt watch Pt2.
In fact, I hsadnt seen Pt1 before- I just did a search on NewPipe and it came up.
There are many similar.
The ones I referenced earlier were from years ago.
I went with Allswell after reading a Good Housekeeping magazine review. I guess this is one time I should read the instructions before using it. I had no idea there is a puffup period.

Yeah, they compress the bejesus out of those things- so much so that it takes multiple hours or even days for them to regain their proper proportions,
