SO, I need a new mattress, and I know next to nothing about them. And so here's the questions I'm sure you've all heard before, what's the best mattress, that will give the best restorative nights sleep, where I wake up feeling like I actually slept. I'm not sure what kind of mattress I currently have but its quite firm and it really isn't very comfortable, I usually wake up feeling more sore and achy than when I went to bed, and I work hard manual labor. But I read the guides about soft beds and it said that they don't provide the support that firm beds do and this can be an issue, but I can't see how a bed that makes me more stiff, achy, and sore, can be worse than something thats simply more comfortable? My parents have a memory foam bed (I think) and its soft, and I sleep pretty damn good in it, when I nap anyway. Haven't had the pleasure of sleeping a whole night in it unfortunately. So I guess I just simply need a good quality soft bed that will give me proper support? Money isn't really an issue, because if you figure I get a better nights sleep, I have more energy to work the overtime to pay it off... Also whats the deal with tempur-pedic, are they the best or what? And whats the difference between them and anything else? Are the other quality beds that are in fact better than tempur pedic? Does anyone have any of these beds that could recommend them, or more specifically a certain type of mattress from their brand? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance -Dave |
Wow! Thanks for the quick reply and the good/lengthy advice! That really helps a lot, and I think I've made me decision based on it. I believe I'll go with the 3 core and get medium, firm, extra firm. I checked the advisor again setting my lbs at about 180 (since I'm actually a bit closer to that) and thats exactly what it advised me to do too. I'm really happy about the 90 day exchange, that makes a big difference in my decision. Thank you so much for your time and advice, I will read about that other post you mentioned as well.

Dave, I am glad I could help. It makes me feel good to help others like they have helped me. I feel that is a great combination to start with and may end up being what you end up with anyway but if not at least you have a combinatin of different ILD latex cores. Also posting helps me take a break from cleaning my home all day so when visitors come by, I will be proud of my place and not have excuses. :) |
