HSN's "Queen of Invention" Joy Mangano Shatters Records Again with History-Making Sellout

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., July 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- "Queen of Invention," Joy Mangano shattered records once again at entertainment and lifestyle retailer HSN this past weekend, when she sold close to half a million of her Comfort & Joy MemoryCloud™ pillows.  The highly successful entrepreneur sold more than 216,000 sets of her patent-pending pillows on Saturday, July 26, shattering HSN's previous record for the most units of a single item in a single day.  Mangano bested her own previous record of 174,000 units sold in one day of her Forever Fragrant Odor Eliminating Set in 2010.  She surpassed all expectations when she offered an affordable solution to help get a better night's sleep!

"All I can say is WOW! This was a hallmark day in my career and I am blessed to be able to share my products through the power of HSN," says Mangano. "I pride myself on offering products designed to make people's lives a little easier.  Days like these make me so thankful for the incredible loyalty my fans have shown me over the years."

The "Summer Comfort Home" event was part of HSN's month-long 37^th birthday celebration where Mangano served up the best of her inventions and designs; headlined by her revolutionary Comfort & Joy MemoryCloud™ pillows that offer a lighter, loftier, and more affordable alternative to traditional memory foam with her 6 layer TempTexx™ warming and cooling comfort technology. Other products that did well this past weekend included Mangano's Supreme Steam 900W Premier My Little Steamer® with Storage Bag, her famous Huggable Hangers® 55 piece Best Set with 3 Jumbo Totes, her Biggest Better Beauty Case 3 piece Chic Set and other favorites.

Mangano kicked off the final week of HSN's month-long birthday celebration, which has featured exciting new launches and special surprises every day in July.  Grammy Award winning artist Jason Mraz started the festivities on July 1 with a special HSN Live Concert, featuring his new CD YES!, followed by the exclusive launch of Nicki Minaj's latest fragrance MINAJESTY Nicki Minaj Exotic Edition.  Martha Stewart showed crafters how to scrapbook with ease during HSN's 24-hour Craft Event on July 23 and reality stars NeNe Leakes and Melissa Gorga debuted exclusive new lines of fashion and jewelry on July 28.  NBA great turned entrepreneur Shaquille O'Neal will bring the party to a close on July 31 with a special appearance on HSN to present new innovations from Monster, while infusing a bit of fun and frivolity into the birthday celebration.
