This invention is a new mattress design. A replaceable foam unit containing the user's chosen firmness, or two different levels of firmness, one level being on the top of the unit, and the second firmness being on the bottom of the unit, sits atop a standard spring unit. The replaceable foam unit and standard spring unit are encased and held firmly together by a constricting and expanding fabric cover. A zipper on the cover allows for the cover to be opened, revealing the replaceable foam unit. The replaceable foam unit can then be flipped so that the second level of firmness faces upwards, and the user can experience a brand-new level of firmness. Or, the replaceable foam unit can be removed completely and replaced by a new replaceable foam unit, thus eliminating the need to replace the standard spring unit once disposal of a user's bed becomes necessary.

A clamp is provided. The clamp has a first member, a second member, and a biasing element assembly pivotally connecting the first member to the second member. A first end of the first member can be pivoted to a position that is essentially adjacent to a second end of the second member and locked into place. A first slot is formed on a first surface of a first cushion. A second slot is formed on the second surface of a second cushion. A first member of a clamp is inserted into the first slot and a second member of the clamp into the second slot, so that a portion of at least one layer of bed covering materials can be positioned between the clamp first member and the clamp second member when the first member is locked into place.

A bedding retention assembly retains a fitted sheet over a mattress. The bedding retention assembly includes at least one base disposed adjacent the mattress. The base is flat in one embodiment and has a flange extending perpendicularly thereto in a second embodiment. At least one boss extends out from the at least one base. Each of a plurality of lines is partially redirected by the at least one boss. Each of the plurality of lines includes an attachment portion and a tightening portion. A plurality of attachment devices is fixedly secured to each of the attachment portions for attaching a portion of the bedding periphery to the bedding retention assembly.

A bedlinen holding system and methods of use, for bedlinen material, such as fitted sheet, flat sheet, blankets, comforters, and the like use to make a bed or other sleeping surface, including at least a fitted sheet removeably affixed to a mattress and likely held in place on the mattress by an elastic band sewn into the perimeter edge of the fitted sheet, the fitted sheet having a foot end and a center section of a foot panel, a flat sheet positioned on top of the fitted sheet, the flat sheet having a foot end and a center section, and a connection system configured to removeably affix the foot end and center section of a foot panel of the fitted sheet to the foot end and center section of the flat sheet, and thus to resist or prevent your partner from pulling the sheets and covers off you.

A bedding system comprises an anchor and a comforter to minimize and/or eliminate the effort of making of a bed. The bedding system comprises an anchor and a comforter. The anchor provides elastic straps to connect to the comforter so that the comforter can stay tucked all the time. The elastic straps provide continuous adjustments with the movements of a user. Additionally, the anchor can be adjusted to allow the user to achieve ultimate comfort and high-quality sleep while tucked in during sleep. Both the anchor and comforter can be folded and locked in place to fit to various widths and thicknesses of the bed. The bedding system provides efficient connections between the anchor and the comforter, thus allows the use to easily disconnect the system for washing and/or replacement.

In accordance with embodiments of the invention, a bedding ensemble is provided. The bedding ensemble includes a comforter assembly including a comforter having a head end opposite a foot end, a top side opposite an underside, and an elastomeric comforter anchor portion attached to the underside of the comforter operable to securely attach to a mattress. The bedding ensemble further includes a top sheet having a flat portion operable to extend across a head end of a mattress and extend down sides of a head end of a mattress and an elastomeric top sheet anchor portion attached to the flat portion, the elastomeric anchor portion operable to securely attach to a foot end of a mattress. The elastomeric comforter anchor portion is operable to envelope the elastomeric top sheet anchor portion and a mattress when the top sheet is securely attached to a mattress.

An integrated sheet stay system suitable for maintaining a mattress cover in position is presented. The system includes a mattress cover. The mattress cover positionable on a mattress. The system also includes at least one strap wherein the at least one strap connects opposing sides of the mattress cover on an underside of the mattress and wherein the mattress cover and the at least one strap form a unitary piece. An integrated sheet stay system suitable for maintaining a bed top sheet in position is presented. The system includes a bed top sheet. The bed top sheet positionable on a mattress and/or mattress cover. The system also includes at least one strap wherein the at least one strap connects opposing sides of the bed top sheet on an underside of the mattress and wherein the bed top sheet and the at least one strap form a unitary piece.
