Hi everyone,

My first post here...
I think I've pretty much read this entire forum over the last week.  Thanks a million, all of you, for all the fantastic information and advice.  Saved me from buying an expensive pillow-top that I'm sure I would have lived to regret.

I originally tried out some beds at Sleep Country, thought I knew what I wanted.  Did a little googling, discovered this site.  Became overwhelmed and confused, bit of a case of information overload. :)
BUT, after mulling it all over I've decided what I want:

  • a firm-as-possible, good quality spring mattress that will last  (high coil count, low guage, no pillowtop, little topping as possible)
  • topped with latex, maybe 1 or 2 inches.. not sure what I'll like best.

SO now, my conundrum.  I have called all the local furniture places.  Not a single one of them sells a "flippable" spring mattress.  Of course the sales people are trying to explain that it's not necessary any more with this "new construction", but I hear so many people unhappy with the non-flip beds, and wondering why their last "flippable" lasted 15 years, so I'm not real keen.

Do any of you have a fantastic non-flip spring mattress? 
Do you think it's true that it's not necessary to flip.. or is that just bs to sell an inferior product?
Do you know what manufacturer might make/sell a "flippable" to me?  I'm in Western Canada by the way..

Thanks so much in advance.
