SleepWarehouse Returns
Has anyone had to do a return with UPS shipping to SleepWarehouse or another place with a large box? I just checked on shipping rates to return my 3” King Sensus topper and UPS charges a premium for a box over 24”x24”x24” and I’m pretty sure the box the topper came in was larger. I’m at work now and the box is at home, so I can’t be positive, but I’m pretty sure the box was closer to 30”x30”x30” or more. The original shipping and weight was $23.85 and 55 lbs. For a box larger than 24”x24”x24”, UPS charges a minimum billable weight of 140 lbs. and a “Large Package Surcharge” to bring my final cost to $111 in shipping to return my topper. SleepWarehouse obviously didn't pay that. |

It surprised me, but it does make sense that it happened. On that first fold of the second set of folds (top to bottom), I was dealing with 9" of foam. I would've had to have somehow compressed the inside of the fold so that the outside wouldn't stretch. I think memory foam was made to compress, but not stretch in that way. It's like Flexographic label printing - that's the kind of printing I do digital prepress for. The "Flex" in Flexographic refers to the plating process. When I output a job, the plate has to be reduced in the direction it is mounted around the printing cylinder because it is a raised image...almost like a rubber stamp. For example, a .067" thick plate that is 6" repeat around a cylinder has to be distorted (or flexed) in that direction only to 93.51% so that the outside of the plate will be 6" when wrapped around the cylinder, but the inside will be 5.6106". I do vaguely recall reading a post (not sure if it was on this site) about someone that folded up their Sensus and put it in their closet and it tore where it was folded from stress. I believe they said Fomax replaced it for them??? |

Re: SleepWarehouse Returns
Recently I purchased a latex topper from Sleepwarehouse. Although I do find it to suit my needs and to be comfortable, it is not at all a finished product. You pay a lot and the piece of foam looks sort of hacked cut with little pieces that fall off easily. The owner was very responsive and we talked a few times before purchase, but when I tried to reach him for a possible exchange, he did not respond. |
