Hasten

Feeling tired? Who isn't? A Swedish company, Hastens, founded in 1852 has the answer. Hastens has been creating the finest mattresses money can buy for over 100 years. Some have said the experience is comparable to "sleeping on a cloud, " but who the hell knows what sleeping on a cloud is like? Nevertheless I get the point, it's damn comfortable. The company's top of the line mattress pictured above, the "Vividus", sells for just over $50,000. The good news is you might end up crawling into bed with the likes of Tom Cruise (which would really suck, but he has one) or Angelina Jolie (ummm....yeah). These mattresses take 120-140 hours to make and are done completely by hand "using only the finest materials money can buy" (Hastens). So next time you're in Sweden and looking for something to do, my suggestion would be to sleep. It will be your best option if the right equipment is holding you up.
