FLoBeds Organic Mattress

FloBed customers know we are always here to take care of their sleep needs.  Today, or 10 years later… once you buy a FloBed you are part of our family.  Our designs insure your FloBed will be “Just Right”.  If you need to change the firmness of your bed to make it right today, or years from now, just give us a call.  You’re likely to get one of Turner family… Dave, Dewey or Anne.  Maybe some of our co-family-workers… Garrett, or Brandon.  And because you’re extended family… we get right to what we need to make your mattress  ”Just Right”.  Everyday… every year.

Along the lines of everyday… every  year, we are doing away with our monthly sales and going to an everyday best price.  (The whole extended family knew we were guaranteeing the best price for 100 days and this just makes it easier.)

Hope 2013 finds you well rested and ready to make your dreams come true!

Remember… your dreams may vary,

Dave and the whole FloBeds Family

Due to unbelievable circumstances we will be shutting down three of our facilities early: The Latex Shop, Wood Shop and Shipping will all need to close by 4:30 PM to get out in front of the first pitch.

Go Giants!

Dear Flobeds,

I am writing to let you know that my husband and I sleep on a Duxiana mattress.  I decided to purchase a high quality, healthy mattress for our teenage son.  He and I went to the Duxiana store together, but I did not want to spend quite that much money on his mattress. I had heard about your Flobeds natural talalay mattresses from my sister and decided to purchase one for my son.  He has the comfiest bed in our home.  His bed is by far cozier and more comfortable than mine with the  Duxiana mattress.  In fact, I recently purchased a talalay topper from Flobeds to put on top of my Duxiana to make it more comfortable.  It has helped, but the full flobeds mattress is still more comfortable than my own.

Thank you for your excellent, natural, healthy, comfortable product.

Gratefully,
Sandy

We were proud to be part of a fund-raising effort that contributed $325 to Redwood Valley’s Humane Society of Inland Mendocino County. Our all-natural dog bed was one of the raffle prizes that helped Visit Mendocino raise $650 at San Jose’s Bark in the Park. The rest of the raffle donation, $325, was donated to MCDOG to support the coast’s dog parks.

Local dignitaries prove bed is more than 7 x 9 feet!

Did you hear we built a REALLY big dog bed and sent pictures and documentation to Guinness to claim the world’s record for the Largest Dog Bed? It was 7 by 9 ft, bigger than any of our people beds, and made of the same all natural components. Maybe you heard that we took the bed to the Paul Bunyan Days Ugly Dog Contest to see how many dogs we could pile onto it?  The answer was 25, 25 dogs of all sizes and shapes shared the bed without mishap. Actually, I did hear from Hairy Putter, Director of Barketing for Mendocino County, that he was momentarily buried under a rather big brute, but no real harm done.

25 Dogs Pile onto Bed

The logical question of course was how about one for my dog? People commented their dog has a FloBed – theirs! But folks have been asking if we’d make him or her one of their own.

So, drum roll please…. introducing FloBeds’ Dog Beds! They come in small, medium and large, just like your dogs. They’re all natural, just like your FloBeds bed, and like our people beds, they’re great for people – I mean dogs – that wake up stiff  and sore.

We have two styles, one with just the bed, another that includes bolsters on three sides. A small is 24 x 35 inches, $132 or $225; medium is 30 x 40, $142 or $240, and a large breed bed is 36 x 48, $179 or $308 with bolsters.

But, because you’re among the first to order, you save 25% on our introductory Paul Bunyan Sale. Click HERE to find out more, see the pictures and video, or place your dog bed order.

Life just got a little sweeter and a lot more comfortable for your four-legged friends!

Now that’s a big dog bed!

FloBeds, pioneers in the eco-friendly mattress industry, and a market leader in organic mattresses, will set the Guinness World Record Labor Day Weekend, for the Largest Dog Bed.  The run at the record will take place during Paul Bunyan Days, Fort Bragg’s festival that honors their timber history, the larger-than-life logger, his blue ox, and now Spot, his reversible dog.

FloBeds will make the record-setting dog bed of the same all-natural materials they use in their organic mattresses. That means it will not only be the world’s biggest dog bed, it will also be the most comfortable and most eco-friendly.

A mini dog bed model – wonder if it’s the world’s smallest dog bed?

The dog bed will be 7 ft by 9 ft – that’s bigger than a king size mattress, bigger than the largest FloBed mattress – and ten times bigger than a large-breed dog bed.  The cover will be organic cotton, the pad will be Talalay latex customized for different firmness preferences, just like the beds they make for people.   The dog bed will be built at FloBeds, presented at 6:45 during the 1st Friday kick-off party on Friday Sept 3rd, then moved to the Ugly Dog Contest on Saturday.

The record attempts will be documented with pictures and videos, and certified by the City’s Mayor Doug Hammerstrom in accordance with guidelines provided by the Guinness Book of World Records.

FloBeds  invites staff, friends and family to the reveal; they’re also inviting people who sleep on a FloBeds mattress to bring their dogs and join them for the record setting events.

Asked why he’s building the world’s biggest dog bed, Dave Turner – the man behind FloBeds – explained, “We think it’s the perfect world record for FloBeds and our hometown. We’ve been celebrating a larger-than life logger for more than 70 years, and we were just named #5 on Dog Fancy Magazine’s list of best dog towns in the country.  What makes more sense than setting the record for a really big dog bed?”

Dave Turner, the man behind FloBeds, is too modest to share this video with you, but the rest of us aren’t! Dave was interviewed for a project called  Inspired by California. Their web site describes the project as a 3 month long Documentary Film and Social Media project.  Artist, Kirby Scudder and Filmaker, Mark Halfmoon are traveling the State of California talking to Californians about things that inspire us about this great state. The project will record 100s of great California stories in 90 days – including this one about Dave and Fort Bragg.
