Hi, I've really been looking into getting a TempurPedic mattress although after researching for reasons why TempurPedic sucks, I've recently become discouraged into buying one. I'll be a senior in highschool and after a year I won't be able to use the mattress for one school year since I will be in a dorm. After that, I can use it again, since I will be living in a condo my sophomore year of college. I also plan to pay for the Advantage TempurPedic Queen mattress, since if it will last 20 years, I will most likely be married and need the room for my wife. Do you think the TempurPedic will really last me 20 years? I'm just becoming confused on whether I could get a same quality memory foam mattress at a lower price that is just a generic brand. My dad keeps telling me all I'm paying for is the brand name of TempurPedic, and that seems to be what a lot of people believe too. Although none of the other memory foam mattresses look very promising.  I just need some guidance. If I go the TempurPedic way, I'll be spending around $1800 although I get two free TempurPedic pillows and bed frame.

You're welcome! I hope you enjoy your new mattress (whichever brand/model you decide to go with). I read somewhere recently that Tempurpedic foam is the densest memory foam on the market, so if you need serious memory foam that you can really sink into, I doubt you can do any better.
