    Are these beds flood proof?

    • MarketingYona Cardboard Bed @ Yona Cardboard Bed on 28/03/2022 - 18:52
      +17

      Our beds aren't flood proof - however, if some water does spill on your bed then you can just wipe it up with a clean cloth, and let it dry naturally. You may be left with a faint mark, but it definitely won’t affect the structure or durability of the bed.

  • Charbel91 on 28/03/2022 - 19:13

        It's the dynamic loads that you've got to watch.. Especially if it's focused in one area. >_>

        Genuinely though, great initiative.

      Your name certainly checks out, but there's no need to be a dick about this.

      I live in the flood affected area and have seen more shit on the sides of roads than I likely ever will again in my life.

      Now we've got flood warnings again for tonight and tomorrow.

      Cardboard or not, bedframes are one of the things people need. Given the option of sleeping on this or the mouldy or stripped floor, this is preferable

          Damn, who knew being flood affected was a competition? Ninternet didn't mention anything about being more or less a flood victim than anyone else.
          But please let us know what metric we should judge the competition by, the most flood affected people don't have houses to even put beds in anymore…

      recycled cardboard isn't healthy due to the manufacturing process so would avoid

    I have spent the last 3 weeks taking every available truck, bobcat, Excavator, and functioning human that we employ on contracts to clean up in Brisbane and I have to say THIS^^^ is one of the most needed things you could Pray for.
    Thank you from the bottom of my heart
    I know for a fact that plasterboard fixers, Chippies, Electricians, plumbers and Tilers are needed now, more than ever before. Ok the Ovens Fridges cars AC and clothes will come in time and can be substituted but again ^^^^ this is heaven sent… If you have a clean Mattress and anything you can spare to go with It, Get cracking OZ B people.
    some will wait 7- 12 months to live in their abodes again.
    Mattresses ,Pillows Doonas blankets essential.

      How do you get mattresses there? Better to get the mattresses in a box for easy transport?

    • Heybargain on 28/03/2022 - 21:20

        Came here to ask the same thing, great idea! Have donated.

      • Slippery Fish on 29/03/2022 - 08:21

        So they donate, how do the people who need it but can't afford the shipping use the donation? Just curious

        • MarketingYona Cardboard Bed @ Yona Cardboard Bed on 29/03/2022 - 10:34

          Great question! We are partnering with an organisation @wardellcore who can distribute the beds to those in need but can't afford the shipping.
          We also now have a section in the form for those who can't afford shipping.

  • PeeDee on 28/03/2022 - 22:03

    Admirable and love your generosity! I wish I was more kind! Kinda personal question but may I ask about your story, what do you have to do to foster that kind of mindset?

    • MarketingYona Cardboard Bed @ Yona Cardboard Bed on 28/03/2022 - 22:37

      Those are very kind words PeeDee. We're a local Aussie business (based in Melbourne) on a mission to create sustainable furniture so we can minimise our impact on the planet.

      As the recent flood events have unfolded in both QLD and NSW, we found that our beds could be a really great fix for those whose furniture has been destroyed.

      We're just trying to give back to the Aussie community who has supported us ever since we launched in January :)

        Well done, thank you for doing this. I've just donated towards shipping. I encourage other Ozbargainers with a little disposable income to do the same if possible.

        Question for Yona. Have you considered asking another Aussie company like Koala mattress to partner with you on your philanthropy?! Sounds like a perfect match :)

        • MarketingYona Cardboard Bed @ Yona Cardboard Bed on 29/03/2022 - 10:41
          +5

          Thank you for the kind words smartblaa, and for your generous donation.

          We are actually chatting to an organisation organising some efforts in the Northern Rivers Neighbourhoods who are coordinating a large donation of mattresses from Koala!

          We are currently trying to work out the logistics around combining forces, so that people in need can get a bed and a mattress together.

          We'll keep you updated on any progress!

    If there is any money collected through this portal that is leftover after all beds have been shipped out, it will be donated to organisations that are helping families who are recovering from the flooding.

    I have a suggestion. Why dont you consider shipping out more beds if leftover money is enough to donate a few more

  • eleon00 on 31/03/2022 - 16:28

    I bought this when we moved to a new place thinking it'll be a temporary arrangement until i can get a loft bed for the room. but man! i absolutely love it. its lightweight, easy to setup, and very sturdy (considering its made of cardboard). its been about 3 months now using the yona and i havent thought of getting the loft bed anymore. my partner and i can be both on the bed (were both on the heavy side) and the cardboard is not even breaking sweat.

    • easternculture on 31/03/2022 - 16:32

    Found these metal beds are more flood-damage proof and easy to transport. https://www.amazon.com.au/Zinus-SmartBase-Mattress-Foundatio…
