Their hybrid mattress is damn good for the price, especially when it’s on sale. Not everyone can afford spending so much money. At the time I couldn’t, that Ikea mattress was leagues ahead of the competition.

I did the same research and your second set of points are spot-on. Hybrid mattress with pocket springs are amazing.

The only physical store worth a damn is Ikea. Their hybrid mattresses aren’t bad and decently priced. Although it tended to sag after a few years, it was still worth it for the price I paid.

I’ve since gone with Titan mattress and have been extremely happy paying a bit more for the increased quality and durability. I’ve had mine for 3 years and it hasn’t shown any signs of wear.

Yeah, as an American I’m surprised it’s only 60 percent. Pretty much anything I’ve ever seen available to me has been washed/graded/refrigerated. Maybe farmer’s markets? But no way do they have 40 percent market share. I’ve occasionally had friends with coops so I’m not unfamiliar with having shelf stable eggs, though.

At this point I think the thing that’d freak out Americans the most is the whole thing about not needing to refrigerate. It’s ingrained now.

3 main reason I cancelled Amazon:

  1. Counterfeits. Can get the items direct for same price & shipping now anyways.
  2. Shipping so unreliable.
  3. My “new” items were quite often repackaged returns, usually missing parts.

I mean, it’s pretty simple for me in that I won’t pay for a streaming service that has ads. Others might, but I don’t care what others pay for. I left cable for this reason and I’ll leave its next incarnation if that is to be.

Yup, it’s so easy now to buy direct. Same price, same shipping, no counterfeits. One of the things that was really annoying me about Amazon was how often my “new” item was so obviously already opened and returned, often with parts missing. I cancelled and haven’t looked back.

This is why I started using wireless charging whenever possible. USB will eventually fail from use.
