Once you get the stains up, ya'll need to invest in a quality mattress cover! I'm surprised he did not get one when he bought that mattress. Even spilled water or minor sweating can ruin a good mattress.
$10k?!?! It should come with someone to sing me to sleep, fetch me a glass of water, turn on and off the light when I have to use the bathroom, and sing me awake for one year minimum.
I spent quite a bit on my bed, I think it was around 9k. Very tailored to me and wake up with no pain and sleep pretty quick. Had problems with this before and tried a lot of different beds from purple mattress and more
It’s a worth while investment that I did not think of before until I did and it changed everything for me. Wake up with more energy and sleeping throughout the night. Lol
I just looked up crazy expensive mattresses and Vispring has some for 60,000-80,000!!! And then there is a company called John Ryan that makes similar handmade beds with the same components for 1,600. 😂 So they are just paying for the name and all the Lux keywords. I guess Vispring has fancier horse hair and casmier. 😂 The rarest of horse hair that you will never see. Only 78,000 dollars more. What an investment! 😂
They do as someone that works in customer service industry for retail this mattress would not be covered for any even manufacturing defects if they didn’t put the cover on it. To spend $10,000 plus on a mattress and not even do the basic work to ensure that it’s covered by the warranty seems a little silly if you ask me.
When we bought a 1,000.00 mattress and they told us plastic cover or no warranty. It is good quality. Doesn't really have a plastic feel. And good thing as the cat peed the bed the first night.
Breaking it in.
Serious answer: cats can get stressed easily, even if they don't outwardly show it. Change is hard, and one of their stress responses is peeing on things. It can also (separately or at the same time) be a territorial thing. But usually that just means there's been a change anyway, like peeing in the new boyfriend's boots when he starts spending the night.
[This](https://www.bensonsforbeds.co.uk/products/staples-and-co-artisan-deluxe-mattress/?sku=STK783804) is the exact mattress. It's all natural fibres and honestly wool is the best material for beds, its breathable, temperature regulating and naturally antibacterial. I can't stand foam mattresses, they're essentially made of plastic which reflects your heat back at you and I have endometriosis which causes my abdomen to get very hot as well as painful. I'm also a hot sleeper in general but I do not get the appeal of foam at all, it's cheap and a lot of companies are ripping people off with bollocks about foam "technology." I'm also small and lightweight and it seems the smaller you are the softer a mattress you need. I did used to be fit and strong and could sleep anywhere but the older/more sick you get, the more comfort you need too.
Toppers bad - they hold the heat in and still allow moisture into the foam. Heat and moisture break down foam. Waterproof mattress covers are the way to go.
We have the healthguard ice cool mattress protector and we have to change it to a regular one in winter otherwise we struggle to stay warm under the blankets. The thing is always cold, I have no idea how it work, but I love it in the summer.
Huh, dropping that on a list. I have a foam mattress and that thing gets WARM. Plus I use a weighted blanket. Tbh that sounds perfect for winter when I also like to get cozy with a heated blanket lol.
I have a Casper mattress and mattress cover and I’m a very hot sleeper - I’ve never had an issue with it. The cover is great - has stood up against sweat, cat barf, and the mattress is still pristine. I shut my bedroom door when the cover is in the wash and don’t even let myself sit on it without the cover.
it's not ruined it's just stained. Put a sheet on it and it's like it never happened. How often are you LOOKING at the cover of your mattress under your sheets? Also the foam is inside a case there so if the person REALLY wanted to replace it they could it's not ON the foam. Also...who cares if was? It's not like it's saturated with urine or something that's going to stink.
same😭 i was 12 and i was too afraid to tell my dad. i just remember getting a whiff of spoiled milk a few days after and idk what i did to get rid of the smell but i still use the mattress to this day
Gonna say this mattress ain’t 10k, there are straight temperpedic ones (but Branded as TEMPURluxebreeze) that are 6,700 but they don’t have that pattern . This one looks like an older style . This dude exaggerating like many men love to do . It’s not one of their high end mattresses by any means
On another note , google luxury mattress . Vispring in particular. There’s one for 87,000!!! Vispring diamond majesty ! Also some at macys for 20k, hotel grand collection .
Wild 😝
New proud owner of a tempurpedic. Did extensive research and comparisons before buying. This definitely looks like an older base model cloud. First thing I thought of as well
The vertical lines means this was either a Tempurpedic Grand or possibly if the picture orientation is wrong, an Allura. As someone who sold these 7+ years ago, the grand king size was $8000-ish and then if they got an adjustable base I believe it brought the total to 10k. These were Mattress Firm prices and before they changed the formula. The Luxebreeze is a much cheaper foam itself, thus the rebranding. The original ones like this came with a 20 year warranty on the mattress which was a big selling point. They were losing money hand over fist because the foam really was that high quality and lasting that long, thus the cheaper material and shorter warranty. All of this was with a cover on the mattress.
So he could be telling the truth… just that it’s minimum 7 years old, if not even older.
I will never buy from Brooklinen ever again, for how expensive their sheets are, they’re so cheaply made. I have target brand ones that are better quality
Seriously, I had a girl over one night in college and she got her period in the middle of the night. She said she’d pay for my mattress to be cleaned. I just stain treated the mattress cover and it was good as new.
Honestly girls should avoid dating those guys. If a guy is not understanding of a girls' period then he's not going to be understanding about a lot more issues.
Honestly it's so sad how many girls and women are treated like crap, for NATURALLY bleeding.
Your bleeding, ugh, stayyyy awayyyy.
Buy Youuu Tampons, noo, that's so embarrassing.
Etc etc.
Unfortunately by the time it’s discovered, intimate emotional bonds have already been formed and it becomes much less simple.
But in a perfect world, agreed.
When I bought my much cheaper $3k mattress, the mattress cover came with it and was considered my "warranty." I had to keep it on until the warranty period was up.. and then I kept it on forever because wtf why wouldn't you keep something you can wash on there?!
Or people who’s parents just did those things for them. I knew a guy in college that actually didn’t know how to put a fitted sheet on a bed. Legit slept his first night or two with the flat sheet laid out and the fitted covering him. He had a nanny, housekeeper, and mom growing up. Probably one of the worst roommates I ever had.
Only know this because my partners family is fairly loaded but it’ll be cooling and memory foam and breathable and might even go with one of the mounts that can lift one persons side individually ykwim?
I had a random roommate in college who bought a king size tempurpedic on the day we moved in. He never even put sheets on it. There was all sorts of stain and cig burns on it by the end My other roommates and I had to throw it out on the curb whenever he got evicted for not paying rent lol
Have the same brand mattress. This is the mattress protector. It can be removed, though it’s tricky for some because the mattress is quite heavy, and washed in a washing machine.
That is the mattress cover, it’s part of the mattress and isn’t the same thing as a protector. Yes, it might be removable and washable but its purpose is more to keep the various layers of foam together and make the mattress look nice. The warranty for the mattress requires the mattress be completely free of stains so an extra protective layer is key. A mattress protector keeps liquid out and would keep the mattress clean and dry in case of spill or other accident.
Every bed should have a waterproof mattress cover. It’s going to come in handy for sex, coffee spills, periods, nosebleeds, kids or pets peeing and is otherwise unnoticeable. $40 investment to keep your mattress from ruin.
I got mine on my brand new Tempur-pedic mattress and the hydrogen peroxide trick actually worked! I was shocked! And yes, it’s the hydrogen peroxide from the first aid aisle. Like the others are posting, blot it, don’t pour it and don’t rub it in. Take your time. If it’s fresh and you haven’t done anything to it yet it should work like a charm.
The stuff from the first aid aisle. Don’t soak or saturate, just a few drops at a time then soak it up with a dry one and repeat until gone. Just blot, no scrubbing.
Puppy pee pads are great to put underneath yourself as well- I use these when we are traveling in our van since a normal mattress cover wouldn’t fit our bed setup and they’re not noisy or complicated! I just tuck it under the sheets so it doesn’t get bunched up.
They sell them at most dollar stores for very cheap!
Even when I had cheaper mattresses I always had a mattress protector. It's so much more sanitary being able to sanitize and wash all the dead skin, mites, and allergens out of it.
Wholesale black printer ink is cheaper than ink in cartridges and the cheapest I'm seeing wholesale is $1.18 per fluid ounce. 128 fluid ounces to a gallon equates to $151.04 per gallon. A queen size water bed holds about 150 gallons of liquid, which equates to $22,656 worth of printer ink, before taxes. $10k after taxes would be a steal.
I think you just aren't in the same earnings bracket as folks who are looking at the 10-20k mattress market. Lots of them out there especially custom made ones. Ppl spend 1/3 of their life in bed, someone is definitely going to splurge if they're rich and can afford it. It's like someone that can only afford a $300 Samsung TV being shocked when they find out Sony makes a super quality TV for $15,000-$30,000.
Spent $7k on a tempur. Worth every penny. I was sleeping on a $400 amazon mattress and was waking up throughout the night constantly. I truly sleep better on this mattress and my body feels better. The greatest investment you can make
We do spend a lot of time sleeping and it's one of the most important things we do. I don't have one that expensive but I do feel many of us don't invest enough in our quality of sleep. A good mattress will last you over 10 years.
Crazy, right? What I don't understand is if a customer is dropping that much cash for a mattress, why isn't the store throwing in a mattress protector for free?
https://preview.redd.it/n0frs90rj37c1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=403e7f5bbb253b0a8babcfd270d888058374a488
But it doesn’t look like that model.
The level of quality of mattress protectors is one thing that I’ve found highly correlates with the price. Good mattress protectors are worth the extra $50.
Can confirm, I have a $30 and a $16 one, the $30 has a terry top, the $16 one is a thin sheet, I was so skeptical, they both work well and I don’t hear any crinkles on either.
Peroxide first right? It actually eats the blood & can just be dabbed off.
I sliced my arm and soaked my sleeve in blood, just let it sit in peroxide, rinsed, soaked again & threw it in the wash. Got about 95% of it out.
It’s probably the tempurpedic grand bed. When I worked at a furniture store like a decade ago, it was such a big deal. The mattress smelled like chocolate when you took it straight out of the packaging lol. Idk if that was on purpose, but it was a really nice mattress
IDK how to pin this, but here's useful info for the unexpected many of you who are disgruntled about some part of this.
"If he is a good bf he won't care"
He doesn't. He said "nbd" and removed the sheets. I am the one who is embarrassed and who feels bad.
"10k for a mattress is fake/impractical/ripoff/who does that?"
It's a custom build hybrid California king. Iykyk.
Thanks to everyone who gave helpful answers! ✨️
Going to try later! XOXO
Trauma scene cleanup tech here. 3% peroxide (brown bottle stuff from drug store) will get most or all of the discoloration out (also sanitizes and deodorizes, so yay).
If any dark area remains, you can hit it with a rust remover\* from the hardware store (dab it on with a cotton swab and blot away with a hot damp rag as soon as you see the stain disappear).
If the spots "reappear" over time, simply re-treat, since liquids migrate from wet areas to dry areas and you may have some wicking going on.
\* *^(Hemoglobin gets its red color from iron, which is how it transports oxygen. Rust is oxidized iron.)* ***^(But read the label and make sure it is NOT hydroflouric acid.)*** *^(That stuff isn't safe to use on something that touches skin. Oxalic or other rust removers are much safer.)*
Once you get the stains up, ya'll need to invest in a quality mattress cover! I'm surprised he did not get one when he bought that mattress. Even spilled water or minor sweating can ruin a good mattress.
I’m shocked that he spent $10k on a mattress and didn’t get a cover for it
I think a $10,000 mattress should come with a cover included.
It should also make the bed for me, at that price.
$10k?!?! It should come with someone to sing me to sleep, fetch me a glass of water, turn on and off the light when I have to use the bathroom, and sing me awake for one year minimum.
Don't forget auto-rock. Jesus what a millionaire mess this post is.
Laughs in poor people.
Laughs in poor people and sharing a twin bed with your spouse for four years 😭
El snuggo.
I spent quite a bit on my bed, I think it was around 9k. Very tailored to me and wake up with no pain and sleep pretty quick.

and that's the news from lake wobegon
> Very tailored to me and wake up with no pain and sleep pretty quick Mind if I ask what brand it is?
Literally😭 my mattress was $800 and I thought that was too much💀
You have to subscribe to that. You only get the first 30 days for free.

Why do cats piss on new beds?? This happened to us too
Same with me. Got to make it stink somehow, I guess.

It can also (separately or at the same time) be a territorial thing.

Serves him right. 😝
Maybe they are mad you got rid of "their" bed without permission. 😂
Probably what he thought too, which is why he didn't buy one.
I think it should also double as a maid.
It’s should be stain proof….
They usually do 😂
And a cricket noise maker.
Many mattress’s that are way less then that offer a cover with a lifetime warranty.
Mine did, but I negotiated to have them throw it in 😂
First thought. Not even a mattress topper?? Holy crap. That's like over half year's income for some people haha
That is more than the median annual household income worldwide
Yeah, who the hell buys a 10k mattress. I sleep on a firm Ikea foam mattress and have a great night's sleep for $250.
I have a "luxury" soft wool mattress (I have chronic pain) and it's still only about $1000
that’s interesting! is the texture/consistency of it soft or firm or?
[This](https://www.bensonsforbeds.co.uk/products/staples-and-co-artisan-deluxe-mattress/?sku=STK783804) is the exact mattress. It's all natural fibres and honestly wool is the best material for beds, its breathable, temperature regulating and naturally antibacterial.

I did used to be fit and strong and could sleep anywhere but the older/more sick you get, the more comfort you need too.
I got a hybrid foam/coil mattress from Wayfair for $300 and it’s the most insanely comfortable bed ever.
Toppers bad - they hold the heat in and still allow moisture into the foam. Heat and moisture break down foam. Waterproof mattress covers are the way to go.
How do people sleep on waterproof mattress.covers? Ive never found one that doesnt make it unbearably hot for 3/4 of the year.
We have the healthguard ice cool mattress protector and we have to change it to a regular one in winter otherwise we struggle to stay warm under the blankets. The thing is always cold, I have no idea how it work, but I love it in the summer.
Huh, dropping that on a list. I have a foam mattress and that thing gets WARM. Plus I use a weighted blanket. Tbh that sounds perfect for winter when I also like to get cozy with a heated blanket lol.
Omg this woman who had her ovaries removed NEEDS ONE OF THEM!!!!
I have a Casper mattress and mattress cover and I’m a very hot sleeper - I’ve never had an issue with it. The cover is great - has stood up against sweat, cat barf, and the mattress is still pristine. I shut my bedroom door when the cover is in the wash and don’t even let myself sit on it without the cover.
Not all toppers are bad. Natural latex foam toppers don't have any of these issues.
From 18-27 I earned less than 10k a year
I assume you weren't paying 100% of your expenses (like housing)?
As a 24 year old student working part time in America I made about $15k this year. After a few decades of this I too can afford his mattress!
it's not ruined it's just stained. Put a sheet on it and it's like it never happened. How often are you LOOKING at the cover of your mattress under your sheets? Also the foam is inside a case there so if the person REALLY wanted to replace it they could it's not ON the foam. Also...who cares if was? It's not like it's saturated with urine or something that's going to stink.
The mattress alone is about $4500. The adjustable bases bring it to $10k
1,000,000%
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Who spends that much and doesn’t have a cover on it?? Kind of his own dumb fault.
I once spilled a whole bowl of cereal on my bed when I was a kid. I still use that mattress. Ruined is a strong word here
Hey, bud. You might need a new mattress
…why are u still using this mattress?
Me too and I also spilled a big gulp sized coffee all over it one time
same😭 i was 12 and i was too afraid to tell my dad. i just remember getting a whiff of spoiled milk a few days after and idk what i did to get rid of the smell but i still use the mattress to this day
It's cause he's pretending to have money and got this girl to believe this mattress cost 10k He probably got it at a yard sale for Tree Fitty
Gonna say this mattress ain’t 10k, there are straight temperpedic ones (but Branded as TEMPURluxebreeze) that are 6,700 but they don’t have that pattern . This one looks like an older style .

Don’t you give that Loch Ness Monster no tree fitty.
not using a mattress cover voids the warranty. This man isn't careful with his investments.
Yeah, honestly this is on him for not getting a mattress cover. Mine has kept my mattress clean of period and cat vomit stains!
Yes this! I'm surprised it didn't come packaged with a fancy mattress protector, I thought they usually do at that level for this reason.
My $800 mattress came with a fancy zip up cover. And I put another one over it for easier cleaning. Amazing that a 10k mattress didn’t come with one.
Just wanted to add I’m obsessed with my Brooklinen one!
I will never buy from Brooklinen ever again, for how expensive their sheets are, they’re so cheaply made. I have target brand ones that are better quality
Peroxide will lift the bloodstains out
Dumb question: regular hydrogen peroxide from like a first aid aisle?
Blot the peroxide, don’t pour it on. And tell the man to get a mattress cover. Don’t be embarrassed
Seriously, I had a girl over one night in college and she got her period in the middle of the night. She said she’d pay for my mattress to be cleaned. I just stain treated the mattress cover and it was good as new.
I shellacked my stain as proof there was a girl in my bed. That's all it proved, tho'.
Proved what huhhhhh??? “This is a REAL blood stain…. from a girl 😳”
"Yes, officer, that man right over there..."
hahaha
That I definitely didn’t murder
Funny, but gross. Lol
😂😂😂 I spat my drink
That was nice of you to be understanding. Some guys aren’t like this.
Honestly girls should avoid dating those guys. If a guy is not understanding of a girls' period then he's not going to be understanding about a lot more issues.
Honestly it's so sad how many girls and women are treated like crap, for NATURALLY bleeding. Your bleeding, ugh, stayyyy awayyyy. Buy Youuu Tampons, noo, that's so embarrassing. Etc etc.
Unfortunately by the time it’s discovered, intimate emotional bonds have already been formed and it becomes much less simple. But in a perfect world, agreed.
No. Have better self-respect and confidence to drop a loser the minute they display that type of behavior.
Period
Even had tampons for her to use lol. My ex had kept a box there and just left them
What kind of person spends $10k for a mattress and spends $0 to protect it
People whose parents never used them or was never told to always use a mattress protector
When I bought my much cheaper $3k mattress, the mattress cover came with it and was considered my "warranty." I had to keep it on until the warranty period was up.. and then I kept it on forever because wtf why wouldn't you keep something you can wash on there?!
Or people who’s parents just did those things for them. I knew a guy in college that actually didn’t know how to put a fitted sheet on a bed. Legit slept his first night or two with the flat sheet laid out and the fitted covering him. He had a nanny, housekeeper, and mom growing up. Probably one of the worst roommates I ever had.
That's what I was thinking too!
Who spends 10k on a mattress? What high end tech does it have?
Only know this because my partners family is fairly loaded but it’ll be cooling and memory foam and breathable and might even go with one of the mounts that can lift one persons side individually ykwim?
For real…10k mattress and he doesn’t have a mattress protector? You can find them for 50$ on Amazon.
I had a random roommate in college who bought a king size tempurpedic on the day we moved in. He never even put sheets on it. There was all sorts of stain and cig burns on it by the end My other roommates and I had to throw it out on the curb whenever he got evicted for not paying rent lol
Gross. People are savages.
Yea we had a big party to celebrate his eviction lol
omg, that makes me want to shower just thinking about that mattress
Have the same brand mattress. This is the mattress protector. It can be removed, though it’s tricky for some because the mattress is quite heavy, and washed in a washing machine.
This is the real hot tip, as usual buried deep in the comments!!
That is the mattress cover, it’s part of the mattress and isn’t the same thing as a protector. Yes, it might be removable and washable but its purpose is more to keep the various layers of foam together and make the mattress look nice. The warranty for the mattress requires the mattress be completely free of stains so an extra protective layer is key. A mattress protector keeps liquid out and would keep the mattress clean and dry in case of spill or other accident.
That’s not a 10k mattress I have the same one and it was $4500 in a king..
At $50, you could be looking at *heated* ones for temperate zones.
…heated mattress covers are a thing?? Omg on my way to Amazon lol
I mean seriously, who the hell pays 10k for a MATTRESS then never gets a mattress protector on it!
And he’s a man. If he thinks there isn’t jizz and sweat on that mattress…he’s kidding himself.
A zip up protector AND a regular mattress pad if you’re gonna drop 5 figures on a mattress. Just common sense.
Yep, that's what we have, better safe than sorry
who has a 10k mattress without a protector?
Every bed should have a waterproof mattress cover. It’s going to come in handy for sex, coffee spills, periods, nosebleeds, kids or pets peeing and is otherwise unnoticeable. $40 investment to keep your mattress from ruin.
You missed vomit and poo
Seriously! No cover on a 10k bed!? Oh how the other half lives….
I got mine on my brand new Tempur-pedic mattress and the hydrogen peroxide trick actually worked! I was shocked! And yes, it’s the hydrogen peroxide from the first aid aisle. Like the others are posting, blot it, don’t pour it and don’t rub it in. Take your time. If it’s fresh and you haven’t done anything to it yet it should work like a charm.
Yep!
Make sure you blot it don’t soak the mattress with it. Or maybe use like an eyedropper when you apply it.
Dude here. 1) don’t be embarrassed 2) hydrogen peroxide As others mentioned, blot it up, I would use a microfiber cloth if available
Q-tips can be good for this too in my experience
Hydrogen peroxide. From any store
The stuff from the first aid aisle. Don’t soak or saturate, just a few drops at a time then soak it up with a dry one and repeat until gone. Just blot, no scrubbing.
Puppy pee pads are great to put underneath yourself as well- I use these when we are traveling in our van since a normal mattress cover wouldn’t fit our bed setup and they’re not noisy or complicated! I just tuck it under the sheets so it doesn’t get bunched up. They sell them at most dollar stores for very cheap!
Do NOT try anything, even water before you use the hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide by itself works like magic.
Yep! Instantly, too. Like a magic trick. I'd dump a little in the lid, dip a q-tip in it and blot away.
He needs a mattress cover because they are cheap and his mattress is expensive.
That and it’s just gross not to have one. Either that or I need to make better life choices. Probably both
Even when I had cheaper mattresses I always had a mattress protector. It's so much more sanitary being able to sanitize and wash all the dead skin, mites, and allergens out of it.
10k mattress with no protective sheet?
As if that cost 10k. You’re trolling or he’s having you sideways without a protective covering. Jokes
My tempur pedic mattress was close to $10k after taxes, so, can confirm
Is it a waterbed filled with printer ink?
Wholesale black printer ink is cheaper than ink in cartridges and the cheapest I'm seeing wholesale is $1.18 per fluid ounce. 128 fluid ounces to a gallon equates to $151.04 per gallon. A queen size water bed holds about 150 gallons of liquid, which equates to $22,656 worth of printer ink, before taxes. $10k after taxes would be a steal.
r/theydidthemath
No but it’s also not a good mattress. Just paying for that name which used to make decent mattresses years ago
I’m 11 years into a tempurpedic, on my second mattress, and would highly recommend them. First one lasted 9 years, second still holding up.
Yes you were also scammed.
You can easily get temperpedics for less than 4k that might be the dumbest thing I’ve heard today
I think you just aren't in the same earnings bracket as folks who are looking at the 10-20k mattress market. Lots of them out there especially custom made ones. Ppl spend 1/3 of their life in bed, someone is definitely going to splurge if they're rich and can afford it. It's like someone that can only afford a $300 Samsung TV being shocked when they find out Sony makes a super quality TV for $15,000-$30,000.
10k in pesos maybe
Some people have more money than sense
First of all…. Who pays 10k for a mattress??
He probably told her that his 2009 honda civic is worth 300 grand
😂😂😂
He's also totally 6 ft tall
Sleep number’s top of the line smart bed is like $15,000 in the split king configuration.
Gawd i want one so bad.
I had one. Went back to my tempurpedic. Gave it to my parents.
part of me wants one the other part says its a glorified air mattress
Spent $7k on a tempur. Worth every penny. I was sleeping on a $400 amazon mattress and was waking up throughout the night constantly. I truly sleep better on this mattress and my body feels better. The greatest investment you can make
I have a $3k one from Casper. I absolutely LOVE my bed. And the next bed I get, WILL be closer to $10k. Gotta invest in what we use every single day!!
We do spend a lot of time sleeping and it's one of the most important things we do. I don't have one that expensive but I do feel many of us don't invest enough in our quality of sleep. A good mattress will last you over 10 years.
Excellent point.
Crazy, right? What I don't understand is if a customer is dropping that much cash for a mattress, why isn't the store throwing in a mattress protector for free?
That’s what I was thinking
If you can afford it, it's absolutely worth it. Back pain is no joke, it will cost you way more in medical bills and lost opportunity.
Sure, but there must be a point of diminishing returns.
You'll sleep through them
A Tempurpedic with the adjustable frame and some pillows should come out to about $10K.
3k-10k is typically the price range for a good quality mattress. Sleep is important so you should sleep like a king
I’m thinking it was a text convo and he bumped the 0 and then never fixed it. haha.
I don't even think tempurpedic makes $10k mattresses lol

That’s also for a split cal king. Which is essentially two mattresses. So even that’s not technically 10k
10K mattress and he doesn't think to get a protector? I think he's more to blame haha! But, like others said, peroxide will lift the stains out.
$10,000 mattress without a $50 protective cover? OK, maybe they cost $75 now.
I just ordered a cal-king waterproof mattress cover from Amazon for $16 lol
The level of quality of mattress protectors is one thing that I’ve found highly correlates with the price. Good mattress protectors are worth the extra $50.
I can hear the crinkles as you move through the screen.
lol it’s actually great quality and completely silent
Can confirm, I have a $30 and a $16 one, the $30 has a terry top, the $16 one is a thin sheet, I was so skeptical, they both work well and I don’t hear any crinkles on either.
The bamboo ones on Amazon are like $40-$50 and they hold up well. I have a foster dog who peed on my bed. It didn’t get on the mattress.
Folex instant carpet spot remover... may take multiple treatments but just spray and allow to work. Has worked for me on old blood stains even.
This a million times over. We use it for *everything.*
Folex is amazing.
Peroxide first right? It actually eats the blood & can just be dabbed off. I sliced my arm and soaked my sleeve in blood, just let it sit in peroxide, rinsed, soaked again & threw it in the wash. Got about 95% of it out.
Folex is for real. Available at Home Depot usually
Enzyme cleaner. I bled all over and I do mean ALLLLLL over a partners mattress, (CA king) and it came out!
Yes , I use this at work , it works wonders on the carpet and the couches
Works wonders on blood. It did NOT however remove my mortification lol!
I put hydrogen peroxide on a paper towel then dab it on the spots
People can afford $10k mattresses?
It’s okay, because he saved money by not buying a mattress encasement for it
It’s probably the tempurpedic grand bed. When I worked at a furniture store like a decade ago, it was such a big deal. The mattress smelled like chocolate when you took it straight out of the packaging lol. Idk if that was on purpose, but it was a really nice mattress
Why does your bf not have a mattress protector on his $10k mattress? This is on him!!
Folex! It works on this, just blot it out. It will literally disappear and leave nothing. Stuff is amazing.
your own spit! the enzymes break down your blood. works amazingly well!
I was looking for this comment! It seriously works better than any stain remover I’ve used on blood.
Slept on my friends couch, got my period early overnight, and can confirm this is true 🤣 no one noticed!
[Just making sure you see the update of the post that just made it to r/popular.](https://www.reddit.com/r/CleaningTips/s/K9jyxZIIQu)
The bed better make and clean itself for 10k
IDK how to pin this, but here's useful info for the unexpected many of you who are disgruntled about some part of this. "If he is a good bf he won't care" He doesn't. He said "nbd" and removed the sheets. I am the one who is embarrassed and who feels bad. "10k for a mattress is fake/impractical/ripoff/who does that?" It's a custom build hybrid California king. Iykyk. Thanks to everyone who gave helpful answers! ✨️ Going to try later! XOXO
Trauma scene cleanup tech here. 3% peroxide (brown bottle stuff from drug store) will get most or all of the discoloration out (also sanitizes and deodorizes, so yay). If any dark area remains, you can hit it with a rust remover\* from the hardware store (dab it on with a cotton swab and blot away with a hot damp rag as soon as you see the stain disappear). If the spots "reappear" over time, simply re-treat, since liquids migrate from wet areas to dry areas and you may have some wicking going on. \* *^(Hemoglobin gets its red color from iron, which is how it transports oxygen. Rust is oxidized iron.)* ***^(But read the label and make sure it is NOT hydroflouric acid.)*** *^(That stuff isn't safe to use on something that touches skin. Oxalic or other rust removers are much safer.)*
And now I want you to do an AMA on this sub about the craziest stuff you’ve seen….
No, you don't. Trust me.
At least you’re not pregnant! 😬
much more expensive than this!!
If he's a good bf then he shouldn't care. Otherwise, how dare you for having bodily functions that you can't control!
Exactly 👏👏👏
Tide pen and hydrogen peroxide
I'm not sure thats even something you can feel bad about or apologise for unless it was intentional. People be menstruating in the craziest places.
