The long ordeal is over -- call me a spring man!
|
Got the latest mattress yesterday, a Serta. It's great. Supportive and yielding. Maybe it will only last 2 yrs, at this point that's fine with me! I slept on it last night with no foam and it was acceptable. I will likely add 2 or 3" of some memory foam (or maybe keep a soft latex foam layer from the Sleepez kit) to give it a bit more cushioning and it will be great. It feels significantly different than the mattress I tried in the showroom. Much firmer which is GOOD. But it made me realize what a waste of time it is bothering to test a mattress in the store! They are all being pounced on for years, so they are pretty much useless as test models. In hindsight, I should have just ordered any Serta Plush mattress as this was the mattress type I had been using for many years and loved for the first five years of ownership. I probably prefer the Serta spring system over the Sealy and Simmons since it is what I got used to... Very little motion transfer, and it feels like a solid unit. When the padding starts to collapse in a couple years I now know (thanks to hundreds of hours reading this forum) to just slice the thing open, remove and replace with my own foam (if the warranty won't replace it first though).

I bet you are! Now go to bed! ZzzzzZzzzzzzz. LOL novahelp wrote: Well it's been seveal nights. While the bed without the latex topper is ok, with the topper it's still pretty much perfect. I guess I will just keep one of the layers.<BR>Phew, it's a lot of money to spend on a bed, but I just am happy this is all finally over... |
