Beds

[Glock Shooter]

Congrats on the pending nuptials. I'm 6" 250lbs and have always had problems not waking with a sore back. About a year ago my wife and I splurged for a Sleep Science Memory Foam King from Costco. Came with a lifetime guarantee, delivered and set up cost just over $1000. I like to sleep on the edge of the bed and it has this edge support system that makes it feel great. I really love this bed, absolutely the best I've ever owned. The frame is metal so for about 2 months it creaked all the time so be aware. I'd say that for marital relations it's interesting at best. So we kept our old bed in the guest room (guess the secret is out) for that. We did try the TempurPedic at the store, but it was 3 to 4 times the price of the Costco knockoff. Haven't had a backache since we made the switch.

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.

+1 I can sleep better on an army cot better than my current bed. I still have one set up in my old office in the house, i now call that room the infirmary, if you saw it you'd get the joke. I want to make the jump to sleep number soon. I love their tempeture neutral sheets and pillow cases.

never slept on a tempurpedic. I hear the foam gets hot, that would bug me.

I have a Dr.'s choice that works just fine, and you could just about buy one for every day of the week for what tempurpedic costs.

still working on finding a good pillow though...

The cheap memory foams get hot, since there is no air circulation in them, so be careful with those. The more expensive ones like the Tempur do some open cell or channels or something, but it definitely keeps it cool enough so that I don't notice the difference between them and a normal mattress.

I don't know if our Tempur-pedic gets hot or not. I don't think so.

That tempur stuff is super comfortable, but the heat was waaaay too much for me. I have a decent mattress from Denver Mattress now and love it

It also includes all the bedding in the photo.

Ohhhh, How much?!

Ohhhh, How much?!

Don't worry, I'll treat ya right.

And that one little stain you see will come right out...

We got a Tempur Pedic last year after using a Sleep Number type bed for nine years. We went with the cheaper basic mattress and kind of regret it. It doesn't seem thick enough. There's a definite break in period where the bed starts out hard and gets more responsive over time. Heat isn't an issue.

Biggest problem we had was with the "box" foundation that came with it. It's broken now and I really did not want another one like it. So, skip the foundation the store will try to sell you and head over to AFW. Their Genius Frame is cheaper and bomb proof.

ok, this thread comes at a good time. we bought our denver mattress $300 queen set 8 years ago. it sucks. it allways sucked.

so we are looking for a set.
those of you who have a king, do you like it? better than a queen?

anybody have an adjustable bed? i was looking online at AFW king memory foam adjustable. I have alot of GERD problems. My doctor allways says lying with your head elevated would alleviate some symptoms.

anyone have an adjustable bed and like it or dislike it? if you have one do you use it? or did the novelty wear off? any help would be great.

and memory foam seems to be it. i have bad shoulders, bad knees, bad back, bad neck, bad hips. or at least they feel bad at the end of the day. but, i am only 180 so my weight isnt the issue.

HBAR-I have 2 2X6's under the head of the bed for that reason but I'm still not convinced it helps that much.
