Arrow Pirelli bed mattress...

So... the other night I was driving thru the city and past one of those bed mattress discount stores. What caught my eye was the Pirelli sign in the window. Seems that Pirelli is now making these foam bed mattresses...

As a complete fail of F1 tyre suppliers (at all levels) they have no other recourse but to try out other industries- hence why not the mattress industry.

I still wouldn't trust a mattress made by them... Reliability concerns you know.

Do you have to rotate the mattress every year? Do they sell a four season mattress or you have to have a winter mattress and a summer mattress?

Is the mattress a soft or medium compound material, is it reinforced with Kevlar?

How many times can you sleep on it before sleep times start falling off and you need replacement?

I feel bad for Pirelli. They paid so much money to be the tire sponsor to F1, only to get directions to make the tires crappy, and to have their reputation ruined in the process.

Does it come with a Pirelli calendar girl? If so I'm in. Figuratively. Hopefully literally too.

They look awful . Why take on what is not strong. Let the boots start doing then I sometimes travel and use one of the mattresses in the car from here, it is enough for a good sleep.
