Skittles Launches Candy Dispensing Bed

On Monday, Skittles unveiled the bold, one-of-a-kind bed.

Just slide the machine open and you've got the perfect place to sleep sweetly. According to information on the Simmons website, the bed comes with a twin-size mattress of a medium firmness level. As for why this unique pairing? The site notes that "both Simmons and Skittles Brand love all things colorful, bold and unpredictable.

Only Simmons and the Skittles Brand can create a bed filled with sweet treats and a mattress cozy enough to give you all the feel-zzz." Treats by day, dreams by night.
