Help purchasing a mattress from costco or sams club
|
I'm looking to purchase a mattress from Sams club or Costco but not sure what to look for. But what I want is a firm bed that will prevent backache. My budget is $800 for a full size bed. Here are the links to costco and sams club, please help me pick out what's best for me. thanks http://www.costco.com/Common/Category.aspx?ec=BC-EC12474-Cat62415&pos=8&whse=BC&topnav=&cat=1924&eCat=BC|93|1924&lang=en-US http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/navigate.do?catg=6791 |

You really should do some research, but I'll cut you some slack: Buy the mattress with the least amount of foam on top, and the strongest springs, then buy 2 x 1" toppers of various softness, one medium and one soft, and mix and match them - one on top, the other on bottom and vice versa, or just one by itself, then the other by itself, until you have the right feel. If you want to get fancy and especially if you are not happy with the feel with any of these combinations then cut the toppers in thirds and make various firmnesses of "zones" for your top, middle and leg/feet sections. You can also try 1" of latex and 1" of memory foam. The purpose for buying a firm mattress with little foam and then putting your own 1-2" of foam on top is so that the foam on your mattress does not wear out, and your toppers can be replaced. Do not buy a Simmons under any circumstances. Good luck! |
