Product Review: Incredibeds are Simply Incredible
My family was recently given the opportunity to review an amazing new product in children’s beds. Incredibeds are lovable over-sized stuffed characters who are sure to provide your child with one of the coolest bedrooms around. I was excited about this product because recently my daughter has been experiencing horrible nightmares and has been running into our room in the wee hours of the morning looking for comfort between mommy and daddy. And as you can imagine, sometimes the timing is a bit off. So when we were asked to review the bed, I joyously agreed hoping that this would provide her with some much-needed security. My daughter thought so too, and as we look through the images on the Incredibeds website, she became very excited at the idea that one of these beautiful characters would soon be hers.
We received Daisy last week but were awaiting the arrival of my daughter’s new twin mattresses. Luckily, despite the three-day weekend, she did not have to wait long. My husband was able to pick-up the mattresses from my mother-in-law’s house and bring them home Monday after work. I spent most of Monday cleaning and rearranging her room to accommodate the new bed. It was a rather big job as no matter how often I clean her room it seems she accumulates more stuff than it can possibly hold. By the time my husband and I finished cleaning and rearranging, breaking down furniture, and sorting through the toys (many of which she never plays with) it was rather late at night and my we were not looking forward to setting up the bed. Nonetheless my husband and I put on a big girl and big boy panties and marched on.
It wasn’t an easy task at first. The bed comes in three pieces which ultimately end up being the right and left side of the characters body and the head. Included are also four pillows and two foam tubes that need to be stuffed inside the body to create the shape. All pieces are connected via zippers providing a mattress cover with arms legs and a head. We watched the video available on the Incredibeds website to learn how to put the bed together, but because we were so exhausted it seemed like a near impossible task. The truth is when all was said and done, putting the bed together was actually quite simple. It does require a bit of patience and a second person to help you lift and fit the pieces as needed and future buyers of the bed will receive it with the pillows already in the appropriate spots. This will save parents a lot of time when putting the bed together. A word of advice, the beds come with four lifts that are supposed to be attached to the bottom of the box spring lifting it slightly off the floor and making it easier to slide the box spring around. Use them! We did not and the task of putting the bed together was made more difficult because of our lack of compliance.
So what do we think of the beds?
These beds are absolutely adorable. Not only are they original, the Incredibeds are also cuddly, and beautifully made. While some parents may think that young children will be scared because of the size, trust me when I say that kids will be absolutely delighted to have such an oversized friend keeping them warm. If you don’t believe me just watch the video below and check out my daughter’s reaction to her wonderful new bed. Her first night sleeping in the bed was the best night of sleep for us in a long time. She did not wake up once. Even when I sneaked into her room to take a picture of her sleeping, she did not budge. Maybe it’s the comfort of the twin mattresses, but my best guess is that Daisy offers her protection and the big loving arms of a Mama Bear.
Incredibeds are available for purchase(here’s a coupon for you) via that website. You have a choice of male or female T-Rex, Bear, or Dog. In addition, the BedJammies (or sheets) come in a variety of styles from solid colors to cute printed designs.
