'Sleepwell' to sleep well

Until about 6 years back, I’ve been using conventional local made cotton filled beds/mattresses in my home. This used to create problems to me, as I had allergic asthma. That’s how, in 2002 September, I decided to go for foam mattresses. During that Onam week, I decided to buy three beds. I was not familiar with this type of mattresses. However, I had the experience of ‘rock-hard’ coir mattresses, elsewhere. Thus, I decided to study the products, and went to the market for a survey of mattresses. I had to decide on the brand, and the shop, for purchase. I went through many reputed dealers, collected the brochures and pricelists, of many brands. These brochures gave me a lot of data, added with the ‘sales talk ‘ of the salesmen in those shops.

With the available data, I made a comparative study of the technical and other features of these products. I looked at ‘features to price’ comparison. The answer was clear – ‘Sleepwell’. The brand was decided. Now, the problem was the model (version / type) of the mattress, as many types were available. I redid a comparative study of ‘Sleepwell’ models. Next decision required was the shop from where I’ve to purchase. I had an easier choice, as the shop-owner at Thakaraparambu Road, Trivandrum, was known to me. Thus, I went straight to this shop. I discussed with them, and firmed up the model. I chose to buy the “Yellow, 32 density, edge covered/pasted with an adhesive tape, and without any cover”. The shop got me a thick cloth cover (with side zip) made. Thus I made the purchase just before Onam that year.

Most of my problems were solved with ‘Sleepwell’. My allegic bronchial problems subsided. The bed room was cleaner. We had more comfortable sleep. Yes.. we started sleeping well with “Sleepwell”.

A few days back, I wanted one more mattress for my Guest bed. The decision was very easy. The 6 year old ‘Sleepwell’s were sufficient motivators for me to decide the brand. Undoubtedly ‘Sleepwell’. The shop too was clear. However, my wife told me that ther’s a shop nearer to my home, and so make an enquiry there. Accordingly, I went to that shop (Karnataka Bed Emporium, Bakey Junction, Trivandrm). My idea was to get necessary information, and then go to the old shop for purchase. At this shop (KBE), I was impressed by its Manager. Though the shop is ill-stocked and didn’t offer all varieties of the mattresses, they had the ‘quilt covered ‘ type of ‘Sleepwell’. I was locked on that, and decided to buy this model. The next day, I made the purchase from KBE (without going to my old shop ! ) .

My 5 year olds mattresses and the new one are all in good health. Even the old ones is still as good as new. No decoloration, no dirt collected, no bad odour… it’s very good.

Let me tell you, if you are thinking of mattresses, you don’t have to go further. Just buy “Sleepwell”. This product has many unique features, like “Ultra Fresh” which prevents bacterial growth , fungi, and dust-mites. That ensures the mattress clean. Unlike other foam mattresses, Sleepwell is not hot. Even in summer, this is cool and comfortable. Sleepwell mattresses doesn’t sag over time. It retains its shape and comfort, even after many years. My suggestion is , sleep well with ‘Sleepwell’.

Anither point I wish to tell you is that my experience is with the “Flexi-Puf” version of mattresses. I am not talking of “Flexi-coir’ and other varieties of ‘Sleepwell’
