I would like to start by saying I am a tennis player with 4 knee surgeries and a bad lower back that can give out on me at anytime...  I have never posted in a forum before so please remember dumb jock, lol so excuse the grammar and all that...  This website helped me out alot while I was researching for a new mattress, so I thought let me possibly help others out.  I am 38 years old athelete all my life 5'10 173, wife 46 5'4 125 if this helps at all..  We were sleeping on a beautyrest pillow top we bought at Haggerty's for 1500.00 dollars, it was 7 years old and was bowing...

I probably did 20 hours of research and narrowed it down to tempur-pedic just had to figure out which model..  We thought ok a firm bed is what we like, now saying that I can sleep on my back, stomach or my side, wife sleeps mainly on her stomach.  So right off the bat the whole cloud series was out according to my research.  Well I went out shopping armed with info, 1st store the guy was like a used car sales man, ugh I train people how to sell thats my job and have the info I had from my research and what he was saying, something not adding up, so I walked out...  Next place guy was very helpful not pushy overall a good young sales guy, I tried the rhapsody for 10 minutes was firm felt great, then I tried the contour select that was firm also, then to the contour signature that felt great I said this is the bed, it was firm but yet it felt a tad bit softer, oh wait I said forgot about my other half, lol.

So I drag her in on a sunday, she lays on the rhapsody not even 3 minutes on her stomach and no way to firm, ok I thought she did not give it enough time, so she moved to contour select.  She felt that was softer, then went to the contour signature, the one I liked and I did not tell her what I picked, also do not buy by price, buy the bed that is most comfortable to you...She likes the contour signature the best, I said me to, while I am talking to sales guy she walks over to cloud luxe and I hear her say way to soft, then to the supreme still to soft, then she jumps on the cloud 8 inch mattress and says she likes this one btter after 10 minutes on it.  So I walk over lay down on it for 15 minutes then said ok we have to think about it.  By both of us picking the cloud I said I have to do more research because I never even looked at it, lol. 

We both go back to the store and try the contour signature and the cloud we picked the cloud so we wrote the deal bought the tempur-pedic box springs new king frame and the cloud mattress with tax 2 free pillows and mattress protector 2844.00 out the door. Remeber tempurpedic same price every where.  They just delivered the mattress and set it all up, there is an odor, I smell it and my wife smells it alot more than I do, kids smell it to, we live in Orlando, Fl so we have windows open airing it out, came wrapped in plastic with those odor bags... I just took a break from writing this and take in mind, I have have all windows open in house,  just about all fans on so there is a  cross breeze. I can now smell the odor before I get into the room, its not bad like I am going to get sick or a fowl smell, but remember all our noses are different.  I can smell it for sure, we have both laid on mattress feels great temp in house is 76 degrees with  fans on medium.  I hope this helps somebody a little, this is all I have for you right now, I will keep you all updated.  Once again thanks everyone on this website I read a ton of reviews and forums, I could not have done it without all you consumers like myself..  Again sorry about my english grammar, Florida public scools k-12, lol.. I am so excited to sleep in bed...

For future buyers, Tempurpedic prices are negotiable... just because someone says it doesn't mean its true. This is still America, everything is negotiable.

The major retailers make it pretty clear if they discount TP prices, they could have their 'license' to sell Tempurpedics pulled.
