FOOT IN THE DOOR HERE, YOU TEACH

>> WE'RE LEARNING ABOUT THE FOAM
INSIDE A MATTRESS.
>> AND REMEMBER, AT THE END OF
THE DAY, YOU'RE BUYING A BLIND
ITEM, RIGHT?
>> YES.
>> SO YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT'S
IN --
>> YOU CAN SEE WHAT'S INSIDE.

>> WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE
GRAY, IT MATCHES YOUR SHIRT.
>> NOT ALL MATTRESSES ARE
CREATED EQUAL.
>> I WANT YOU TO SQUEEZE THE
CORNERS OF IT.
OKAY.
YOU FEEL HOW IT FEELS?
>> YES, IT DOESN'T RETAIN ITS
SHAPE.
IMMEDIATELY SPRINGS BACK.
>> PUT YOUR HAND IN THE CENTER
OF THIS.
>> OKAY.
>> PUSH.
>> OFF, THAT'S MUCH HARD -- OOH,
THAT'S MUCH HARDER.
>> WHEN YOU DO THIS, DERRICK,
THIS IS HOW IT FEELS WHEN YOU
PUT YOUR TUSH ON THE BED AND YOU
SIT ON IT.
BUT WHEN YOU PUT BOTH OF YOUR
HANDS LIKE SO --
>> BECAUSE YOU'RE DISTRIBUTING
THE WEIGHT MORE EVENLY.
>> VERY GOOD.
>> YOU'RE SPREADING IT OUT.
>> IT'S HARD.
DO THE SAME THING WITH THIS.
YOU HAVE TO FEEL --
>> CORNERS CAN CRUSH EASILY.
>> RIGHT.

DIFFICULT.

WAY TO SHIPLEY HIPS AND THIGHS.
-- SHAPELY HIPS AND THIGHS.
AND IF YOU CALL NOW, BUCK THROW
IN A SECOND BLOCK.
MAYBE YOU'RE TOTALLY IN THE
WRONG -- YOU COULD SELL THE NEW
VERSION OF THE THIGH MASTER.
>> THERE'S SOMETHING NOT RIGHT
WITH YOU, IS THERE.

DUDE, YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS.
>> THANK YOU, FOLKS.
WE'RE DONE HERE.
IT WAS A PLEASURE BEING WITH YOU
TONIGHT.
>> THESE DAYS, MANY MATTRESSES
PROMISE TO DO ALL KINDS OF
THINGS THEY DON'T DO.
>> EVERY WEEK I HAVE PEOPLE WHO
COME HERE AND ASK ME THESE
QUESTIONS.
SHOW ME THE BED THAT SLEEPS YOU
COOLER.
SHOW ME THE BED THAT WON'T BE --
I'M DYING IN BED.
AND I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WORKS.
SO IMAGINE THAT YOU'RE STANDING
THERE, RIGHT?
AND YOU CONSTANTLY HAVE THESE
REALLY SUPER NICE PEOPLE COME IN
HERE AND YOU CONSTANTLY LOOK AT
THEM AND GO, NO.
I'M SORRY.
>> YOU HAVE TO SAY SOMEBODY LIED
TO YOU.
WHEN IT COMES TO COOLING FOAM
TECHNOLOGY, UVAL SAYS DON'T
BELIEVE IT.
>> THE ISSUE IS NOT EVERYBODY
SLEEPS HOT.
AND THERE ARE -- WHICH BRINGS ME
TO THERE ARE CERTAIN COMPONENTS
IN A MATTRESS THAT YOU SHOULD
NEVER BUY IF YOU ARE SLEEPING
HOT.
>> BECAUSE THEY MAKE YOU EVEN
HOTTER?
>> EXACTLY.
>> OKAY.
>> THERE'S NOT A COMPONENT IN A
MATTRESS OUTSIDE TODAY THAT WILL
MAKE YOU SLEEP COOLER.
>> SO NOTHING ON THE MARKET
RIGHT NOW CURRENTLY DOES THAT.
>> CORRECT.
THAT WILL SLEEP YOU COOLER.
BUT THERE ARE COMPONENTS THAT IF
YOU DO LAY ON THEM, WILL MAKE
YOU SLEEP HOTTER.
>> WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS A LOT
OF US ARE NOT SLEEPING HOT BUT
IF THE MATTRESS WERE SLEEP --
YOU'RE SLEEPING ON THAT'S
CAUSING US TO FEEL LIKE WE'RE
SLEEPING ON HOT.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> INTERESTING.
>> THANK YOU.
>> YOU MAY NOT SLEEP HOT BUT IF
YOU SLEEP IN AN OVEN, YOU'RE
GOING TO BE HOT.
WHEN IT COMES TO A BED IN A BOX
THAT IS SHOWING UP ON PEOPLE'S
FRONT DOORSTEPS, THAT'S GOING TO
MAKE THEM SLEEP HOT, RIGHT?
>> IN MY PROFESSIONAL OPINION,
ABSOLUTELY.
SO YES, IF YOU BUY A MATTRESS IN
A BOX, AND IT IS MADE OUT OF
FOAM OR VISCOELASTIC, WHICHSH
CALLS MEMORY FOAM, IT'S NOT
MEMORY FOAM.
IT'S VISCOELASTIC, OKAY?
THAT WILL STEP YOU HOT.
>> YOU KNOW YOU KNOW ADVICE
ELASTIC WAS MY -- VISCOELASTIC
WAS MY NICKNAME IN HIGH SCHOOL.
>> I'M AFRAID TO ASK WHY.
>> I DON'T KNOW WHY.
>> ARE YOU SERIOUS?
>> DERRICK VISCOELASTIC SHORE.
ACTUALLY, THAT HAS A NICE RING
TO IT.
DO YOU THINK?
IN HIS WORLD EVERYONE WOULD
SLEEP ON A GOOD MATTRESS.
>> PEOPLE ARE BUYING WATER FOR A
DOLLAR.
BOTTLED.
>> OR COFFEE FOR $7.
>> AND YOU WILL NEVER USE THOSE
PRODUCTS FOR THAT -- FOR THAT
MATTER ANY PRODUCT YOU'LL HAVE
IN YOUR LIFE AS MUCH AS YOU WILL
USE A BED.
>> SO INTERESTING WHEN YOU BREAK
IT DOWN LIKE THAT.
>> RIGHT.
>> BUT THE ONE THING YOU'LL USE
THE MOST AND THE LEAST EXPENSIVE
PURCHASE YOU WILL EVER MAKE IF
YOU KNOW MU TO MAKE IT
CORRECT -- IF YOU KNOW HOW TO
MAKE IT CORRECTLY.
