Hi folks...

I posted a question on this forum a few weeks ago & wanted to say "Thank You" to all of you who gave me really well thought-out, detailed, & helpful answers. 

I've been searching off & on for a new mattress for more than a year.  I'm sleeping on an 11 yr old Sealy Posturepedic innerspring mattress (NOT a pillowtop)  that is soooooooooo dipped that it looks like a soup bowl.  I'm literally sleeping in a giant hole.  It's killing me.  So, that's it.  I have to get a mattress, any mattress, because anything would be better than this.

So, I would like to know >>  If price were NO object & someone offered to buy you ANY mattress you wanted, would you get a Tempurpedic, or not??  Because it seems like what holds a lot of people back from getting a Tempurpedic is the OUTRAGEOUSLY HIGH PRICE.

But, it IS possible for something to be super expensive & STILL SUCK, so I'm wondering if you guys still wouldn't get a Tempurpedic simply because you just do not think they are comfortable to sleep on & that they have too many problems (sleep hot, too hard in winter, too soft in summer, stink, not good for marital relations...).

I don't know, I'm thinking of just giving up & buying an Original Mattress Factory Orthopedic Ultra Plush innerspring (NOT pillowtop).  They are only $779 for a Queen set & they are the most popular of the OMF beds.  Also, Consumer Reports Readers Scores from May 2010 rates OMF 2nd only to Tempurpedic for customer satisfaction.

It just seems, from reading this forum, that every single person on here that bought a Tempurpedic had to test drive it for weeks & months, & then STILL ended up exchanging it for a different Tempur model & STILL was not sure they were comfortable!!  Some of you, are test driving TWO Tempurs at one time using split Kings w/ your spouses & are having problems w/ BOTH models!!

It sounds like Tempurpedic is a ridiculous hassle!!!  Wouldn't it just be easier to get the OMF Orthopedic Ultra Plush innerspring??  How bad could it possibly be compared to the endless Tempurpedic hassle that you all seem to be enduring?!!
