I see this coming month costco will be running a coupon for $100 Queen, King 12" Novaform Gell mattress.  With Costcos return policy I think I may try it out.

My question is, what kind of foundation should I buy?  Anyone recommend somethign specific?

I used a Costco 2.5" Sleep Innovations gel memory foam topper for one night on top of my all latex bed .... and that memory foam slept HOT.  I sank mostly right through it and pressure relief wasn't great.

Can't speak for the mattress, but top layer is same as the topper I used.

To the OP, I think the Stearns and Foster / Sealy patterned 'box springs' are better than the Serta / Simmons I've seen.  Reason is the S&F's have a consistent 4" spacing between vertical support rods.  The Serta's box has an 8" gap in the middle support rods from head to toe (at least on the twin boxes).  There are surface rods that run head to toe, but the vertical support is 8" apart.  The result - sag in hips up to shoulder area.  That's what happened on my iComfort twin box spring.

I picked up a slightly used twin XL S&F box spring for $169 with tax at Sears Outlet.  That box was manufactured 4 weeks prior, so it was basically new. Good deal.
