Mattress Shopping made easy

Thursday, April 2nd, 2009

My husband and I have recently been mattress shopping. We actually went into mattress stores and would spend at least two hours a day there on the weekend. During the week I would compose a list of eight beds that we were to try out. We would then go to the mattress store and spend thirty minutes lying on each mattress.

After much debate, bed testing and seemingly hundreds of mattress stores, this made the decision a lot easier since we weren’t buying based on the advice of someone trying to make commission. The top choices were the sleep number bed and the foam mattress bed. But the sleep number didn’t live up to the hype. So we’ve decided to go with a foam mattress. Or at the very least we are waiting for the test delivery of our mattress. Through research we found out the denser the top the better. We decided to go with a temperpedic and if we want to keep it, it will be about $1200.00 With all the testing that I’ve done in the stores I would recommend it to others.
