Memory foam was first developed in the
1970s by NASA
for spacecraft use. Now, thanks in part to BedInABox®,
memory foam is one of the most popular materials used to construct mattresses that are sold online and delivered to
your home in a convenient box. Over the last ten years, the online mattress industry has grown exponentially,
every year bringing new competitors. Among them, we find
Leesa, a company that shares our mission of offering
mattresses in a box made 100% in the USA. Torn between which company to go with for your next bed? In this post,
we compare how our mattresses differ from Leesa’s based on 5 key-elements.
Inception
In 2004, we began brainstorming how we could build a machine that compressed and packaged
memory foam
mattresses.
By 2006, BedInABox® was in full operation, becoming the first
company to sell mattresses that are compressed, rolled, packed into a small-scale box, and then delivered
directly to your doorstep. On the other hand, Leesa was founded in 2015 – nine years after we
pioneered the industry. Because we were the first company
to develop and sell affordable, luxurious mattresses in a box, we have more experience and a better
understanding of the industry than our competitors, allowing us to deliver you and your family the best boxed
mattress experience.
Number of Options
Our team has listened to and carefully read through all of our customer
reviews, and has taken them into consideration
when brainstorming how to improve our current products and develop new ones. Throughout our many years in the
industry, one of the biggest takeaways has been that every sleeper has different needs. In order to accommodate
these individual sleep preferences, we have developed
a selection of seven different mattresses. Our goal at
BedInABox® is to make sure every customer finds their ideal bed, which explains why we offer seven mattresses
with varying heights and levels of firmness. Leesa, on the other hand, offers
twelve different mattress models in addition to a kids selection. That being said, both companies
provide a great selection for the whole family by offering mattresses in six standard mattress sizes:
Twin, Twin XL, Full,
Queen, King, and California King.
However, BedInABox® takes it one step further, offering 2 additional sizes: RV queen, and RV king.
Durability
At BedInABox®, we promise that your mattress will be comfortable and will have a lifetime of
at least eight years—if not longer. We even stand behind the quality of our mattresses with a
20-year warranty. Please note that our Essential mattress is the only mattress with a 10-year warranty.
Based on customer reviews found on our website and on other review sites, BedInABox® sleepers can go to
bed confident that their mattress will maintain its quality, firmness, and shape for at least the eight
years promised. According to internet reviews, Leesa is a competitive brand when it comes to product
durability. Customers find that Leesa mattresses also seem to maintain their quality for up to eight
years, which is a great lifetime average in
comparison to other brands in the market. Leesa offers a 10-year warranty for all their mattresses.
Price
Our competitor’s products range from $549 for a twin size bed to $4,399 for a California King, Leesa’s products are priced slightly
higher than ours. In comparison, our beds start from $529 for a Twin to $2,599 for a California King.
Not only are our mattresses less expensive, we also offer regular discounts! You can save 20%, 25%, and even up to 30% on your purchase depending on when you
visit our site. However, BedInABox® and Leesa do have two things in common! Shipping and
delivery are free when purchasing mattresses from both companies. You can also purchase your mattress from either company
and pay in monthly installments with Affirm! Buying a new, quality mattress shouldn’t break the bank and better sleep isn’t
something you should have to wait for. At BedInABox®, we are committed to making your purchase as easy and affordable as we can.
Trial Period and Warranty
Our company is 100% confident that you’ll love our mattresses, which is why we offer one of the most generous trial
periods - 120 nights, risk-free. Similarly, we offer a
20-year warranty
with each mattress purchase. In contrast,
Leesa offers a 100 night sleep trial period and only 10 years of limited warranty coverage. At BedInABox®, we are
committed to delivering a high-quality mattress that will fit your specific needs and help you get a better night’s
sleep, and that can only happen by allowing every shopper to test out his or her mattress and make sure it sleeps
how they need it to. Still trying to choose between these two brands? Look at it this way: while both BedInABox®
and Leesa offer great mattresses, our product is the better overall choice. BedInABox® guarantees a larger variety
of mattress options along with a longer trial period and extended warranty coverage to reassure our sleeper’s that
we’re delivering the product their bodies need. What are you waiting for? Choose BedInABox® today and join our legacy
as the best mattress in a box on the market, delivered right to your door.
Mattress Foundations
Despite both Leesa foundations and BedInABox® Clever Connect® Foundations being
designed and manufactured in the USA, the BedInABox® foundation has a longer trial
term—120 nights—than Leesa foundations, which come with a 100-night trial period.
Furthermore, our premium foundations start at a lower price point than those offered by Leesa.
Adjustable Base Options
At BedInABox®, we offer two adjustable base options: the MotionInABox™ 1.0 and 2.0, which are similar to
Leesa’s Adjustable Base. Like BedInABox®, Leesa offers their Adjustable Base in various sizes. However,
both BedInABox® and Leesa guarantee that all their mattresses are compatible with their respective adjustable bases.
Another consideration when looking at BedInABox® vs. Leesa is the price of their adjustable base.
Leesa’s Twin XL adjustable bed frame starts at $1,299, while the MotionInABox™ 1.0 starts at $849
and the MotionInABox™ 2.0 at $1,249 in the same size. Despite the difference in price, Leesa’s
Adjustable Base shares many features with the MotionInABox™ 2.0:
-
Underbed lighting
-
Massage setting
-
USB ports
-
Wireless remote control with flashlight
-
Zero-gravity setting
Ultimately, an adjustable base can be a good investment for any age, but especially for those
seeking relief from health issues such as joint pain, asthma, or snoring. If you want to

BedInABox® vs. Leesa - what's new this year?
BedInABox® continues to innovate and lead in the sleep space. This year we
introduced our MotionInABox® 2.0, a full-body adjustable base, our Upholstered
Platform, and our Original
Hybrid mattress. The MotionInABox® 2.0 gives sleepers
a fully customizable sleep experience while the Upholstered Platform
gives sleepers a modern platform bed that will upgrade their sleep space. This year, Leesa has committed to doing more for their
community. This includes improving their products, creating more sustainable business practices, and helping families in need in
their community. At Leesa, this looks like donating new mattresses to families and shelters in need, partnering with charities
and encouraging mattress recycling.
