Beds

[KevDen2005]

Fiance' and I are looking at beds and thinking between something like a Tempur-Pedic or a Sleep Number (or similar style air bed that they have at Denver Mattress Company). Any thoughts? Anyone have any of these beds? Any issues with them if you do?

Thanks

Tempur-Pedic the wife and I would like one, and have slept on them before, very nice

Go with the Tempur-Pedic, your back will thank you.
And after the first night, you will wonder how you ever survived the night without one.

We're on our second Sleep Number bed. Awesome...just get all the upgrades.

Once or twice a year, the wife and I stay over at a cousins place in K.C. while driving between Colorado to Illinois. Their guest bedroom has the bed equipped with the Tempur-Pedic mattress. Very nice and relaxing but I about passed out when I found out the prices of the Tempur-Pedic. I'd like to have one too but wow, kinda expensive and I feel that they are just a little too warm/hot for me. Been married for 50 years and in that amount of time have had only two different mattresses - gee, now I realize why it kinda sags toward the middle -- makes it much easier to meet in the middle.
Both mattresses have always worked for both of us = three kids. I guess we are about due for a new mattress change too.

My wife and I found a tempur-pedic type mattress at American Furniture Warehouse. We absolutely love it! They have two different thicknesses of mattress so try them both. I think it was around $600 for the mattress and boxsprings (king sized) which beats the hell out of a tempur-pedic!

too many years in the Army... in the field.
My Wife got whatever it was she wanted and I usually crash the floor about 1am.

Did this drill ~2 years ago...a purchase that will drive ya' nuts if you do it right.

Huge temper-pedic fan, lady would NOT go for it...stale-mate. We both liked the the high-end Sleep Number a whole lot (forget which line/model) but when I priced it out and all was said and done, I would not go for it...stale-mate. Ended-up with an Origins (soy foam, blah...blah...blah) from International Bedding. Been a great bed so far, I like it a lot but only time will tell. One thing I've learned though, "life is way too short to have a shitty bed!"

PS - Bought the frame yet? That's another pain-in-the-ass...

We've got a Temper-pedic that is about 10 years old and we like it. If there is any sagging on a Temper-pedic, it is because of the box spring.
