They’re counting on no one using it, because a matrass is annoying to transport, but that’s really worth it.
IME they rarely last ten years, but that doesn’t matter. You simply return them every few years, once they start sagging a bit or get dents. Just use a matrass protecter against the worst stains, obviously.
Very affordable matrasses too, compared to other places.
I speak four languages on a semi-daily basis. It’s almost impossible to avoid the occasional flub without a spell checker.
Matelas, matras, matratze, and mattress.
Another one is succes, success, succès. No success without the SS in English.
There’s also occasional, ocasional, occasioneel, and occasionnel. Read stuff like that too much and your eyes go wonky.
The comma rules are also subtly different. At least I think they are. I’ve given up caring.
Weirdly, I get its/it’s right more often than monolingual English speakers. Dutch has a thing where sometimes the plural is denoted with a 's. The greengrocer’s apostrophe it’s sometimes called in English when you make that mistake.
