Traditional Mattress
|
Daddy Mattress
|
|
Basic Features
|
Wide selection of Cores
Wide selection of Colours
Wide selection of Sizes
Wide selection of Materials
Easily replacable
|
Basically just one model plus you’re stuck
with it for life
|
Stabilization
|
Broadly good, although variable from mattress to
mattress
|
Broadly good, although can decrease with excessive
usage. The balance of your Daddy is affected by sleep deprivation,
dehydration and other complex emotional factors, and care by one of our
licensed professionals (Mummy) is advised
Prone to infuriating shifts in position when you didn’t
ask for them, although responds well to corrections through the medium of shrieking
|
Claimed vs Measured Firmness
|
Depends largely on the brand, filling and
price range, but usually pretty close to model specifications as stated in stores
|
Generally lags behind model specifications
as stated in clothing stores, online database descriptions, etc
|
Ease of Movement
|
For the average two-month-old baby, extremely poor
|
All-Terrain coverage on 4-limb drive
Multiple speeds
Can be easily summoned to your location through amazing
new ScreamResponse technology
|
Warmth
|
Very dependent on local climate
|
Self-heating, plus monitors your body
temperature and can adjust your clothing as appropriate
|
Responsiveness
|
Extremely limited
Generally immune to criticism or physical violence
|
Incredibly adaptable, will move to support your every weird
pose, including random position shifts accompanied by heart-rending howling at
0330
In-built entertainment system, includes yankable ears
and hair, endless supply of nonsense speech and suckable digits, plus can import
favourite toys and games on demand
Monitors your health and can fetch medical attention or,
better still, Mummy at a moment’s notice
Surprisingly tolerant of physical shocks.
In later life, prone to anxiety or regret unless occasionally reassured that he remains useful and loved
|
Durability
|
Will need flipping or rotating every few months
Highly absorbent of fluids
Some symptoms of a broken or worn-out
mattress include visible permanent sagging or deformity, lumpiness, excessive
squeaking and springs that can be felt poking through the upholstery layer
Depending on the foundation and core
materials, your mattress can last you 7-10 years
|
Responds poorly to flipping, rotation may
cause dizziness
Poorly absorbent of fluids, but basically self-cleaning
so not a big problem
Some symptoms of a broken or worn-out Daddy
Mattress include visible permanent sagging or deformity, lumpiness, excessive
weeping and neuroses that can be detected poking through the smiling exterior
Lifetime guarantee, although may become
void when you start bringing your own partners home to sleep

This is a blog about being a stay-at-home dad. In Sweden, where it's not thought of as weird. Or less weird, anyway. I hope.
