The ultimate exclusive bed, the Vividus makes its way to Dallas, TX.

Swedish bed maker Hästens Sanger opened its Hastens Dallas showroom in late October 2007, and recently extended their line by bringing in the ultimate dream bed, the Vividus. This internationally known, family owned company has marched to their own drummer for five generations, driven by a passion for making the finest and what are considered by many, the most comfortable beds in the world. The Vividus, Hastens top of the line bed, requires 160 hours to build.

Hastens, founded in 1852 as a saddle maker, has been making beds since 1917, and to this day, continues to hand-craft all of its beds in Sweden. With 156 years of tradition and knowledge, Hästens is all about turning an important night’s sleep into something other than a sweaty, stressful transport between the bedside lamp and the alarm clock. “Hästens” means “The Horses” and horsehair is the main component in the beds. Each strand of horsehair functions like a tube that transports oxygen, which helps regulate the temperature around the body and helps evaporate moisture, so one keeps dry while sleeping.

We’re really only now starting to understand how sleep is affecting our health, and it appears to be significant. A recent study conducted by Harvard Health Watch reported that there are many reasons to get a good night’s rest. The study showed that the quality of our sleep affects our immune system, our healing ability, our temper, our memory, our fitness and our learning ability. Metabolism, weight, hormones and the way our bodies store carbohydrates were also found to be affected by sleep.

Even our aging process slows down with enough sleep. You get fewer wrinkles and increase your chances for a long healthy life when sleeping well.

Moreover, people who are sleep-deprived have elevated levels of substances in the blood that indicate a heightened state of inflammation in the body, which has also recently emerged as a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, cancer and diabetes. As Dr. Sanjay R. Patel of Harvard Medical School points out: “Now we’re starting to get insights into what’s happening in the body when you don’t get enough sleep.”

Knowing how important a quality night’s sleep is and its impact, it’s surprising how little time and money is spent on this important piece of furniture. Most people probably invest more time and research buying a new sofa or TV than a bed.

Hästens beds are made of all natural materials. They are free from latex, plastic, foam rubber or polyurethane that makes the sleeper hot and sweaty, and they’re free of anything that could potentially release harmful chemicals. Instead you find clean horsehair, cotton, flax, wool and solid, slowly grown pine from the north of Sweden. Conscientious consumers appreciate not only a restful night that will give them a better quality day, but they also understand the value of choosing a product that is 100% bio-degradable, hypoallergenic and where craftsmanship and the high-quality materials have not been compromised. There are over 1000 Swedes still sleeping in Hästens beds that are over 50 years old, demonstrating that quality and fine natural materials go a long way.
