Is this a good, trustworthy company to deal with? What is the price range of mattresses? Right now my budget will only allow me to spend about $2,000 on a full size mattress.

I need a decent mattress that is not too firm yet not too soft and provides the proper amount of back support and relief of pressure points.  I'm 5'6" and in the 130  pound range.

I don't want to buy from Sleepy's or Raymour & Flanigan based on lots of customer complaints. There really aren't any more local stores that sell mattresses except for Macy's, and their selection is limited. I'm desperate for a comfortable mattress, as I've been sleeping on an Aerobed. I don't know whether it is worth the long drive to Gardner Mattress.

Thanks for any info about Gardner mattresses and any other suggestions.

I would recommend Gardner Mattress without hesisation.I visited their store in Newton several times and was impressed with not only their mattresses,but their sales staff as well-very honest and not pushy at all.When I purchase my latex matress (not from Gardner,but mailorder) and told them about my issues I was having they gave me suggestions to try and didn't try to steer me towards one of their mattresses...how many stores would do that?I dealt with Mark in the Newton store (brutually honest-be prepared) and talked to Matt Power online and both were good guys.Last time I checked the webpage was down so I would sent Matt an e-mail and ask him for suggestions.Are you looking for a traditional mattress/boxsprings?Latex?Memory Foam? They have all three available but their pride and joy is their tradional mattress/boxspring.They are available in five different firmnesses with different toppers if wanted.When I was looking last year a Queen mattress/boxspring ran about $1700 and their latex sets ran all the way to $2100 so I would say you are well within your 2K range for your Full.Jeff
