For starters, what exactly is a Mattress in a Box? In Canada, there was a craze that started in about 2013-2014 where an American company called Casper pioneered the Mattress in a Box industry. It quickly caught on in Canada and many new brands were minted. The earliest brands (like Endy & Douglas) like most pioneering brands, became the most well known. After that, many innovators came along with superior products and better technology. 

To be the Best Mattress in a Box Canada, a mattress must have quality foam (or coils) that can be compressed small enough to fit in a 16" x 16" x 48" box. It must also be able to rebound when you receive your shipment, and be super comfy and supportive. Additionally, technology has advanced well enough that even pocket coils can be shipped in a box so we will consider Pocket Coil mattress in a box as well. Without further adieu, here are our top 5 picks
