If you have picked up any womanâ??s health or fitness magazine, Iâ??m sure you have heard about â??being in the zoneâ??. From diet to heart rate, there are numerous documented studies lauding the advantages of being in that special targeted â??grey spaceâ?? known as The Zone.
Well, in the last few weeks, the zoned concept made its way into our showroom via a potential new customer. Somewhere while meandering down the local Mattress Maize of retail outlets, someone had convinced this gentleman, that unless you purchased a â??zonedâ?? mattress, you were basically doomed to mediocrity in your mattress selection. Upon further questioning, I found the reasons this customer had been given, were flimsy at best. The mainstay of his argument was that all parts of our body donâ??t weigh the same, and we need more air in the heavier portions of our torso. Upon first glance, this might appear to be a sound premise, but there are some holes in this reasoning (no pun intended).
In order to confirm my opinion that our single-zoned chambers which provide uniform head to toe support, and therefore greatly reducing stress at pressure points were superior to the zoned chambers found in a competitorâ??s mattress, I decided to contact one of my friends who is a leading expert in the airbed industry.
According to my friend, if he could describe in one word, his opinion of the zoned chamber (of which he had much experience) it would be a â??nightmareâ??. First of all, as good as it might appear on the surface, when it comes to the concept of zones, â??one sizeâ?? DOES NOT fit all! In other words, zones are not anatomically correct for everyone. If one partner is 6â??5â?? and one partner is 5â??2â??, youâ??ve definitely got a problem! To make the best of a bad situation, you could attempt to center yourself right in the middle of the zone, but in the words of Dr. Phil, â??good luck with thatâ??. What happens when you move off-center???
If that werenâ??t enough reason to realign oneâ??s thinking, I was given six more reasons you want to stay with our single-zoned chambers. Those six reasons are hoses! Our adjustable firmness system does not have hoses or valves running down the center of the bed. In the event any issue might arise which would require diagnostic testing, our hose is located externally, at the head of the bed, and is easily accessible. The zoned chambers however, have six internally located hoses which â??Yâ?? into a center hose leading to the middle of the mattress. Just try and isolate a problem in this convoluted mass of tubing! The issue of hose kinks is another story in itself. Long story short, hose on the outside, easy correction. Hose on the insideâ?¦well you decide.
Hopefully, this has given you food for thought, and before you decide to make your sleep system selection, be sure and stop by one of our three conveniently located showrooms for a demonstration of our #1 best-selling adjustable firmness sleep system, which provides you with unparalleled support to the back area. Your body will â??thank Youâ??! Just be sure when you stop by that you stay out of the â??No-Parkingâ?? zone! Those pesky zones can be hazardous to your well-being!

At Relax In Comfort, we have been able to help alleviate some of this stress with our #1 best-selling adjustable firmness mattress sleep system.
We also provide a stress free, care free bed that will literally last you 20 years. Here's why...
One issue that seems to surface regularly with our customers who have purchased a typical foam or coil-based mattress in the past, is the fact that as those systems begin to break down due to age, or just due to the intrinsic nature of the products.They have little recourse other than purchasing a new mattress.
Due to the fact most consumers buy a new bed every seven to nine years, in a relatively short span of time, they have found themselves investing a rather substantial amount of money for beds. When you add the ‘hassle-factor’ and mental stress to the financial expenditure of purchasing and re-purchasing new mattresses, is it any wonder customers view those of us in the industry more as ‘foes than friends’!
With our adjustable firmness mattress, you are able to customize your comfort level with up to 100 different settings.
It is like having a complete mattress store at your fingertips. In addition to your customized settings, our adjustable firmness mattress is component based. In the event any component should require replacement for any reason, (unfortunately, we don’t live in a perfect world and there are times replacement or repair is necessitated) isn’t it comforting to know that in such an event, you don’t have to purchase a completely new mattress, but only the component that is in question.
Not only is our system ALMOST foolproof, it is also ‘User-Friendly’ in the event a repair or replacement of a component is required.
Case in point, several weeks ago I received a call from one of our customers who purchased our adjustable firmness system several years prior. Long story short, one of their air chambers needed replacement. A new chamber was ordered and arrived at their home. The million dollar question might now be, “where do I go from here?”. What good is a replacement part if it’s so complicated to replace you give up before you even begin? Such is not the case with our adjustable firmness system! Our customer called when they received their new chamber, and I actually walked them through the entire replacement procedure over the phone.
Within a matter of minutes, the new chamber was installed and their bed was as good as new! No service tech, tools, or complicated instructions were required…and can I mention that my customers were 80 and 84 years old! I don’t know about you, but I can’t even program my microwave to auto defrost. I need something simple when it comes to technical issues, and this system certainly meets that requirement.
I called our customers three days later to check on their status! My sweet “Mrs.” said “Everything is just perfect! My hubby is sleeping like a baby. Who knew what fun it would be to fix our wonderful bed!!?” What more needs to be said? Refresh and renew your component for the next 20 years!
If you are currently in the process of maneuvering through the ‘mattress maze’ because your bed needs replacement, be sure and stop by one of our three conveniently-located showrooms for a demonstration that will forever change how you look at your mattress!
If you want to experience an incredible sleep-experience with our adjustable firmness mattress, come on in!
That adjustable firmness mattress will have your back thanking you for it!

Who makes the best Massage Chair?
The answer ultimately depends upon what features & benefits you are seeking. Both Human Touch & Panasonic models rank as the best models available today. In this blog, I will walk you through the advantages of both, to allow you to make a proper assessment for your individual needs.
Human Touch Massage Chairs
Human Touch is rated higher for aesthetics, styling and selection. Human Touch models have a very distinctive look & feel and fit better into most décor settings. The new ZG2.0 and ZG4.0 are my personal favorites among the new 2013 line up. Both of these models provide for “zero gravity” recline plus a robust and customizable massage experience. Both chairs are “wall hugger” designs which only requires 5” of wall clearance; great for tight spaces. The chairs also conceal the foot trough when the chair is not in use. They are a great alternative for those looking for a multi-purpose chair: i.e., massage, zero gravity and sitting chair.
Panasonic Massage Chairs
Panasonic, based out of Japan, is known for the best, most realistic massage robotics built into any chair; however they do not consider themselves to be in the “chair” business at all. They design and perfect massage robotics, for a true massage experience, placed into a reclining mechanism! The cultural perspectives are readily apparent. Panasonic models have an industrial look, with a very limited color selection (mostly black). For those with room for a massage chair which can be placed into a secondary room environment, and seeking a highly intuitive and realistic massage experience, the MA70 model provides for an unbelievable massage. This model is a little pricey but is unparalleled in technology and comes with a 5 year factory warranty. Their robotics are designed and crafted in house – they build the chair from the inside out. Others place massage mechanisms already available into the frame of a chair. Consider the difference as a private chef prepared meal or a take out from a national chain restaurant. The MA70 without question deliveries a superior massage and incorporates the best aesthetics of any model in the 2013 line up. If your budget is under $3,500 the ZG2.0 and ZG4.0 would be the best option. If your budget can stretch a bit, check out the MA70 in person at one of our 3 convenient locations.
Keeping Your Massage Chair In Tip Top Shape
The other issue, even more important than the chair itself, is who will provide service on the chair in years forward? Both Human Touch & Panasonic have a national network of in home service providers. Many second tier massage chair companies simply sell off inventory they buy direct from China by the container load, and do not provide for adequate service or availability of parts. Service after the initial sale is of paramount importance. Carefully consider the BBB rating of the seller, and perform your due diligence to ensure a satisfactory ownership experience. A cheap price on a massage chair without product support after delivery will end up as the most expensive chair ownership based on years of service vs., cost of acquisition. Remember the old adage, “Cheap things are seldom good, and good things are seldom cheap”.
At Relax In Comfort, we provide nationwide shipping for free, and in home set up for an additional fee, typically $250.00 as of this writing. Both brands have a trusted network of service techs and are highly rated online. For all sales outside the state of Florida no sales tax is due. For those within Florida, a medical exemption on sales tax is available with a simple note from your doctor for an ailment.
We also have a low price guarantee and ship free nationwide!
Ultimately, the best chair for you is like the best car for you! It depends on your usage requirements and individual needs. They must be tried in person to make the best evaluation. Many of the issues are personalized and must be individually evaluated. We constantly evaluate new models and offer what we feel are the best models from both companies. Our loyalty is always to the consumer, and we offer unqualified unbiased feedback and advice to help you select the best chair to suit your needs.

Not many people would think an adjustable bed would make a great anniversary gift, right?
Well surprise…surprise…surprise!
Surprises are wonderful and we love experiencing them. But one area where you want no surprises, is from a delivery team when they are bringing that new refrigerator, or sofa, or new sleep-system! At RIC, our specially-trained delivery team go the ‘extra mile’ in assuring your delivery lives up to your expectations of courtesy, professionalism, and product knowledge. Not to mention efficient installation of your new power adjustable bed.
At Relax in Comfort, our team meets those expectations or exceed those expectations. When they come to your home, you can expect that the delivery of your power adjustable bed will be done right. Our delivery drivers work for US, not a third party contractor. When they are in your home, they work FOR YOU to make sure that the way you want your power adjustable bed installed is the way you want it.
Let me share the exact words I received from one of our satisfied customers in an email around the holidays:
“Roberta,
We do enjoy the bed now that we are getting used to it, and it has helped Nancy a lot. Also the two boys that delivered the bed were very courteous and did an excellent job of setting things up and being out of here before she arrived home. They deserve a Job Well Done!!!
Thanks again and have a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year”
The reason this is above the norm, is because this bed was a total surprise to our customer’s wife as it was a special anniversary gift. The team had to handle everything “undercover”. Her first awareness of this much-planned gift was when she went to bed that first night after delivery. Our team ‘definitely delivered’.
Surprises are great, but not when it comes to your delivery service. At Relax in Comfort our goal is your complete satisfaction. Not only do we have the very best delivery team in the business. We also have the highest rated adjustable firmness mattress on the market.

We want you to be so be sure and stop by one of our three conveniently located showrooms and allow one of our trained staff introduce you to the most incredible sleep system on the market. Your only surprise will be how you’ve gone so long without it!
