YogaBed Mattress Review: Archived Original Hands-On Testing Restored
YogaBed is discontinued, but this was one of Yawnder’s early boxed-mattress reviews and included real unboxing, bowling-ball, construction and cover observations.
Unboxing
The Marpac YogaBed arrived compressed in a compact box and expanded quickly enough to use the same day. The original review also noted the temporary foam odor typical of newly opened compressed foam mattresses.
Four-layer construction
Yawnder opened the mattress and documented four distinct foam layers, which was more complex than many two- or three-layer boxed beds of that era.
Sinkage and bounce
A 14-pound bowling ball showed moderate give. The mattress was softer than some early online competitors while retaining enough response to avoid feeling completely dead.
Cover and cooling
The removable cover was unusually easy to take off, and the gel-infused comfort layer helped the mattress feel cooler than some comparable early memory-foam beds.
Current-shopping note
YogaBed was acquired and later discontinued. This page is preserved as an archive of the original product, not a current recommendation.
