can this mattress stay in the box for 2-3 weeks until we have the room ready for it, or is it a definate "have to open it" as soon as it arrives?

I would just order it when the room is ready. I have no clue if it could sit in the box for 2 to 3 weeks and still be ok.

mine was kept in its original box while we moved. it came out just fine. when you take it out of the box just give it an hour and you have a great mattress. i got it for my mom and she loves it. it really doesnt matter how long its in the box because thats how they are at the warehouse and that could be a long time. glad i could help, enjoy the mattress. sandy

Hello, It only took a few hours for it to "rise". I slept on the full size mattress 3-4 hours after I opened it, and it had no adverse "smell" that has been mentioned in other reviews. Hope this helps! : )

The mattress comes with a bag that you can keep it in for future use. The mattress is heavy....

My son who is in college slept on the AeroBed for 3 weeks and was pleased with the mattress. I don't know how it would be for months.

Hi! Stephanie. We were not home when it came to us. The box is surprisingly small as they roll up the mattress and squeeze out most of the air. It was simple to roll.out and it came into shape witout much fuss. Its a good mattress.

Yes. We have not used it yet. At the moment the mattress is sitting on a bedframe, but will be stored away eventually.

The bed is folded/squished when it arrives. You have to unfold it and it will expand to full size within a few hours. When I saw the box I thought for sure it was a mistake and they had shipped a small-size bed... but it was correct. It is perfect.

We bought an inexpensive mattress that shipped compressed and inflated upon unpacking. It was for a temporary situation

It's in a small box, when you pull it out it expands. My son sleeps like a rock on it, it's a great mattress. Just make sure you let it air out for a few days after you pull it out of the box.

It took mine 24 hours to completely open up Buts its Usable Within Minutes. Its Compressed Because Mattresses Are Large..thus Costly To Ship

The mattress comes in a tubular box. The mattress is rolled up tightly inside it. Once you open the box, you unroll the mattress and it slowly expands to it's normal size. Seriously... This is a GREAT mattress!

Hi, I had the same question...looking at the seller's page it says "A: As long as the mattress is in its original box we offer a 30 day 100% money back guarentee. We will even pay your shipping back. Once the mattress is out of the original packaging we do not offer any returns." under the reviews in the lower left corner.

The mattress is not vacuum sealed but it does have a protective plastic bag so it's clean. It is not like some of the 'foam' mattresses that come all compressed where you have to let it uncompress--it's already ready to go. I agree with the other reviewer that the box is kind of big BUT it is not heavy; the bedroom I wanted the bed for is upstairs and I was able to get the box up the stairs by myself. We've been very happy with the bed.

It is vacuum sealed in a plastic bag and put inside a 4×3×3 cardboard box. The bed should be opened outside or in a very airy room as there are some gasses that come out out when you first open it. In half an hour it is good to use.

It comes with a piece of junk "mattress," so I ordered this one. http://www.amazon.com/Dream-On-Me-Portable-Mattress/dp/B0030UUBMO/ref=pd_bxgy_ba_text_y The crib box says not to use a mattress over 2.8 inches or something like that, but the 3 inch seems fine.

I bought the mattress for guests lodging with us. I have had guests who slept on it for two weeks where we left it unfolded for the duration of their visit. So far, it held its shape - no sagging issues and the like. Sorry, I do not know whether it can hold its shape and firmness for an indefinite or very long period of time.
