sup sluts.i searched tww, and found nothing particularly helpful... has anyone had any good or bad experiences buying a mattress? where did you go, etc.I look online and theres tons of pissed consumer sites, but seeing 200 complaints about a company, i have no idea how representative that is... nobody rates shit five stars or wahtever. so, i'm wondering if the entire world hates their bed, or what.basically i found a stearns and foster i like, but it cost a little higher than i really wanted to spend. im not big on pillow tops but plush tops are in line with what i'm looking for. Though, i'm not opposed to buying a cushioned mattress pad and putting it on top of a mattress i find to be the right support level. i mean, thats basically all a pillow top/plush top is...anyone have experience with original mattress factory? i found some pretty negative reviews about them sending lower quality than the person bought.PREESH

I've got a pillowtop that has been pretty good. Got it at some mattress store. I hope this helps in the slightest

Last summer, someone threw out a mattress and box spring on the curb in front of my place. They sat there for a while -- I think Greensboro trash dudes only pick up big shit once a month. After a week or two of heat and rain and humidity and dirt and bugs, some guy knocks on my door and asks if they're mine. I said, nah sorry, I know it looks trashy, not sure who left it out there for so long. Guy was like, no, I was just looking for a new mattress, wanted to know if they were clean. Only think I could think was "I bet drunknloaded has done this before."]

QVC just had a PedicSolutions mattress on but after reading some of the reviews it looks like it sucks

DNL take it home, and black lights it, then sniffs any spot that glows./true story.(he did this at cambria suites, too)
5/6/2012 7:49:31 PM
someone i knew one time was like "i know how to get a free boxspring", so i was like sweet i'm into saving money, how do you do it? she's like "okay so there's a trailer behind some store where they put the old boxsprings that people trade in. you take the bag that your mattress came in and zip it up and take two cans of raid...", which is about where i stopped listening.but to answer your question, i bought a foam mattress from ikea and honestly i kind of love it. it was way cheaper than a traditional mattress/boxspring/frame, and it great to sleep on (if you like firm mattresses). also i bought it rolled up and took it home in my car, which i guess goes w/o saying w/ ikea, but it was still nice.

my wife and i are very pleased with the mattress/boxspring we got at original mattress factory. the sales lady was helpful and wasn't pushy. it's as comfortable as the expensive shit, but less than half the price.

I used to work as a contract engineer for Sealy, Inc. in Trinity, NC. If you're interested in a plush stearns and foster, then simmons makes a similar feeling mattress but they have more of a tendency to sag after a few years. Usually the beauty rests are around 400-500 dollars.

I got the Seally iComfort Insight memory foam mattress. It is super comfortable. It is firmer than their more expensive brands which is fine with me. I like a firm mattress. I paid around $2000 for a king size bed set from Rooms to Go. [Edited on May 6, 2012 at 11:31 PM. Reason : .]

It's a longer king. I guess that could make it more comfortable if your 6'6" or something.

i have had a couple of different people that have had tempurpedics for roughly 4-5 years say they will sag also. of them said that tempurpedic has a great warranty and they just had to send it back for new a ones.can anyone confirm?
5/7/2012 9:34:45 AM
we just finished mattress shopping not to long ago. We liked the iComforts memory foam, however we ended up buying a couple different mattresses from Costco. At first we were kinda worried about buying a mattress we hadn't tried yet, but with Costco's awesome return policy we went with it.The first one we bought was http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11621568&whse=BC&Ne=4000000&eCat=BC|93|1924|67411&N=4018919&Mo=29&pos=3&No=23&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&cat=67411&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1&lang=en-US&Sp=C&ec=BC-EC11879-Cat1924&topnav=but it ended up being really really firm. If you're looking for a really firm memory foam bed, that one is for you.we returned it no prob. The mattress company sent a moving company to come pick it up as there is no way i could get a california king mattress back to the storeThe next one we bought (and are sticking with) is this one. It is still a firm memory foam mattress, just not quite as firm as the first one.http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11672601&whse=BC&Ne=4000000&eCat=BC|93|1924|67411&N=4018919&Mo=29&pos=3&No=13&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&cat=67411&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1&lang=en-US&Sp=C&ec=BC-EC11879-Cat1924&topnav=

^^The Tempurpedic brand has a 20 year warranty (and is the best of all the memory foam beds). If there is a dip of 3/4 or an inch or more, they will swap it out under your warranty.[Edited on May 7, 2012 at 12:08 PM. Reason : (]

I bought my Sealy from The Mattress Firm 13 years ago. It's the "Posture Premier Summerlake" and a double pillowtop. I think it cost ~$1000 new. To me, it's the most comfortable bed I've ever been on. Everyone that has ever laid on my bed has said to me that my bed is awesome if that's any kind of endorsement. With regular rotating and flipping my mattress doesn't sag at all, and for the majority of its use it has just had one large man sleeping on the right side of it every night, lol.Seriously though, when I bought the bed, the guy who sold it to me was one of the most knowledgeable salespersons I ever met. I still remember him telling me that Sealy/Stearns & Foster are the best beds, and that all the other major bed-making companies picked names that begin with S to confuse people into buying their inferior beds. He also told me that the average person only has 4 beds in their lifetime; the bed when they are a kid, the bed when they move out of the house, the bed when they first get married, and the bed they have when they die. Really when you think of it that way, there's no reason not to spend a little more and get yourself a nice bed.Buying a Sealy from The Mattress Firm was one of the best consumer purchases I've ever made.

I got mine from the mattress place in triangle town (outside the mall in a separate building) but had them price match usmattress.com. got a $2700 mattress for $1100 delivered.I need an extremely firm mattress so I got the 980 coil count, visco foam (memory foam top), extra firm. I was only more impressed by the tempurpedic, but wasn't going to drop 6k on a mattress and power base... at the time... I still might
5/8/2012 7:50:18 AM
My parents like their Original Mattress Factory bed and I've got one from there that I like as well.They're nice mattresses and they're a lot cheaper than a comparable brand name. On top of that, you can flip them. Flipping is a pain, but the "no-flip" mattresses that companies build now are just an excuse not to put a pillow-top on both sides.
