I don’t get to review mattresses often, but over the last few years there has been a big push into mattresses that use all sorts of high tech materials. The first company to step into the memory foam market that really made a name for itself was Tempurpedic, and back in the day I reviewed one of their first mattresses.

My wife and I have been in the market for a new mattress, and we’ve been debating between going with an old school spring mattress or a modern memory foam one. Along the way, I stumbled onto a new mattress company called HIBR, whose aim is to create comfortable and supportive mattresses that take advantage of the latest in foam technologies without breaking the bank. The HIBR mattress is made using three layers, each with different properties.

Yes, you read that title correctly. This mattress is made of gummy bears. Can you even imagine what it would be like to sleep on this thing? Well, probably very gummy. I bet you are thinking it would be soft, but I think it would be super hard.

It takes way too much effort to change into your PJs before bedtime. And just as much effort to haul your butt into the bed. Forget both of those things. This outfit combines a suit and a mattress.

If you live with other people, then you know how difficult it is to get some privacy sometimes. People barging in your room, people barging into you while you’re in the shower (hopefully, unintentionally), and people walking past you every other minute while you’re in the den.

I like taking naps in private, but even I think that these Podtime Sleeping Pods are borderline ridiculous. While it seems like a pretty neat concept, it’s priced way too high (at £1,375 or about $2,148 USD) for mass enjoyment.
