Our aim is to provide you with the best sleep!

A well-designed bed must allow the sleeper's body to come to a place of rest and must consist of natural materials that are free of harmful chemicals. Our Balancer Das Original meets all these requirements in order to provide you with the best sleep possible.

Consider that the average person sleeps 27 years of their life. Since such an enormous amount of time is spent laying in bed, it must be seriously considered when it comes to your overall well-being. The principle idea behind our bed design of the Tri-Slat system is to create a sleeping surface that is flat, flexible and supportive at all times regardless of a person’s weight, size or build. Of course a true one-size-fits-all does not exists. However, our bed design may be the closest thing to it.

Here is what it is made out of:

There are essentially five (5) components to our bed design. The Solid wood frame (1) can potentially be replaced with any other bed frame. Numbers two (2) to five (5) are essential. Be sure to click the drop-downs next to the pictures for more detailed information!

Are you sleeping on your back?

In this picture to the left, we intentionally left out the latex mattress in order for you to better see how the Tri-Slat system will adjust to reflect the natural curve of the person's spinal cord. The system enables the body to go into a perfect state of rest where all muscles in the sleeper's back can rest and relax. It will provide this optimal lying position, independent of the person’s weight, size and build. This provides optimum sleeping conditions to relieve and prevent lower back pain.

Are you sleeping on your side?

For a person sleeping on their side, it is absolutely vital to keep the spine in a straight position. The excellent elastic properties of the natural latex in combination with the Tri-Slat system provide the perfect surface for the side-sleeper, independent of the person’s weight, size and build. Once again, this is absolutely necessary to keep lower back pain from developing.

 

Dreaming of undisturbed nights?

Our Tri-Slat systems are designed to work completely independent from one another. Therefore, two people can sleep in the same bed without disturbing one another by excessive tossing & turning or by getting up in the middle of the night.

How long will our beds last?

Our latex components will last a minimum of 15 years before they will need to be replaced. No chemicals have been added into the latex to increase its life, therefore the natural life time of latex will remain at a minimum of 15 years.
All wood components are built from solid wood and will last for generations (like they did in the good ol' days!). This means that after you have gone through your first latex mattress, you only have to purchase new latex and not a completely new bed. Unlike other mattresses where you have to buy everything again, with us you only spend a fraction to maintain a high-end bed for decades to come. Because the latex will break down and is biodegradable - apart from the polymers - you will significantly decrease the amount of waste that is normally associated with replacing your mattress.

Do you offer any warranty?

We live in the age of Amazon and other big corporations that offer 100 days to 1 year money back guarantees. As a small business this is simply unrealistic so you must tamper your expectations. However, we know that a person will usually take between one to 10 nights to get used to this new way of sleeping. Therefore we offer a 21 day return period (excluding the sheep wool because it is a hygiene item).
Keep in mind that for a small business like ours, every customer is a person and not simply a number. Therefore, we will try our upmost to provide as good of a service to you as anybody.

What about disposal once the bed has passed its life cycle?

Even though natural latex is biodegradable, the polymers that hold the latex in its mattress shape are not. However, this leftover material can be given to a recycling point and used for underfloor and insulation. Therefore, our beds last longer than conventional and memory foam mattresses and they don't leave nearly as much waste behind!

Be sure to check out how sleep is related to back pain relief

The first thing a person who suffers from lower back pain should consider is his/her bed. With an average of 27 years, every person spends a large amount of their life laying in bed and therefore it must be seriously considered when it comes to lower back pain, especially the one that is labelled "due to old age".The principle idea behind the design of the Tri-Slat system is to relieve and to prevent lower back pain.
