Get into bed, set into bed, climb into bed

I wonder whether sentence is correct.

Below sentence, which is found in Korean English Learning Homepage, confused me.



Before I set into bed, I flip the bed covers in case there are bugs inside.

How hard I tried to find this expression, there are no expression "set into bed" in both Goggle and Dictionary.

But I can find some similar expression,

"get into bed" and "climb into bed"

All these 3 sentence is correct? If not, which one is correct expression?
  

Top answer

"set into bed" is not an expression I have ever heard. It seems to be a mistake for "get into bed". "get into bed" and "climb into bed" are both correct English.
