The company operates primarily online, selling direct to consumers and offering fast shipping (typically 3–5 business days) across Europe and beyond. Its differentiators include German engineering, a focus on pressure relief and spinal alignment, and a direct-to-consumer, online-first model that supports easy, direct purchasing.
