The online [mattress retailer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oversized-modular-bedinabox) Casper created this unique [mobile showroom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nissan-nv200-vanette-myroom) called the Napmobile. Consumers are encouraged to test the mattresses in the showroom before conveniently ordering their favorite bed online.

The Napmobile looks like a trailer and boasts four garage-like doors on its side that reveal different mattress types. The truck tours across America to offer naps to those in need -- when someone is taking a nap, the vehicle's doors will close and read “nap in progress.”

Additionally, there are phones located in each bed-testing area that nappers can use to listen to bedtime stories and help them fall asleep. This clever marketing tool will build [personal relationships with consumers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikea-sleepfluencers-campaign) and bring the e-commerce mattress shop directly to consumers.
