Hi there! I’m Daehee, co-founder of Boring Mattress Co. (boring.co). Previously I co-founded Tuft & Needle, one of the original pioneers of "bed-in-a-box". This time last year, I was ranting about how awful online mattress shopping had gotten.

But what worked well was sharing a clear...

There's the natural strategy of expanding to other product lines that are refreshed more frequently, and this is definitely something we want to do. The reason we offer just the bed right now is so that we can get it right before we move on to other things.

Thanks @nbashaw and I'm excited to participate in the PH community. My co-founder JT and I were working together at a startup in Palo Alto. We decided to leave our jobs to start a company together. We sought out a stagnant industry to disrupt and saw ripe opportunity in mattresses where there seemed to be a lot of mediocrity and greed. So we launched with a MVP — a simple product and landing...
