Hi All,
I have been reading various reviews on this forum for the past week while we were trying to determine whether to buy the iComfort or Tempurpedic. Yesterday we finally decided to buy the iComfort Revolution w/adjustable base. We went back to the Sleep Country store where we tested both beds to question the sales manager on some items I learnt from this forum. He did confirm that the bed needs a bit of "break-in" and "air out"...for 20-30 minutes per him. He stated that the Sleep Country store's (in Portland, OR) policy was 100% refund if unsatisfied within 100 days w/o any delivery or restocking fee. We also laid on the Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme, Luxe and Rhapsody beds before trying the iComfort Revolution. All beds had the adjustable base. I finally decided on the iComfort since it felt right in between the Cloud Supreme and Luxe in softness which felt just right to me. The remote on the iComfort was also nicer as it had some nice presets. Finally, the iComfort Revolution was $1100 lesser than Cloud Supreme and $2100 cheaper than Cloud Luxe. We will get it delivered next Friday. I hope it works out for us and will post an update after a few weeks of use.

We bought the icomfort and went through two of them. First one we got too firm and second one sags on one side after only 4 months of use. I'm 6'2 and 250 lbs and my side now has what my wife calls a "valley" I could live with this if we had it for a few years but 4 months is ridiculous. It also hurts my lower back right on my spine. The guy who said he has a hard time getting out of this bed, is right.

I'd like to know where some of the idiots who posted reviews on here get their products or are they are obviously shills. If you buy the cheapest model offered in this series, do not expect it to be wonderful and hold up. We looked and researched long and hard for a quality mattress. Both my wife and I have back, hip, leg and/or neck issues. We had previously spent over $2/K on a Sealy pillow top, but it just was not as comfortable as we had hoped and we always tossed and turned and woke up sore. The consensus was that the old style spring mattress has run its course. Its been modified and upgraded and tweaked as much as it can be and the top models out there are the best you can get. They still are not good for people needing proper support. The way to go, and where an overwhelming majority of buyers are moving to and happy with is the comfort foam or air/foam combo mattress. My only concern was the heat issue. I do not like a hot bed at all. I was very hesitant about dropping $3/K on a perfect sleeper or similar model if in the summer I'd be sweating instead of sleeping. I discovered the iComfrot series by Serta, and their cool foam technology was just what I was looking for. I understand that it may not be 100% cool, but knocking off the heat factor to a decent degree would be acceptable. The first issue we had was finding a retailer who had them in the store so we could look at it, see and feel the construction quality, and lay on it for some time to see what felt good and what did not. My advice, never buy a big ticket product ever without touching it and testing it in person first. My wife discovered that Boscov's had them in the store for buyers to try and check out. Thank you Boscov's!! We took a trip down and we tried all of the models they had from the base model to the top top of the line. We laid on them for quite some time and never got over heated by the foam at all. Construction was very high quality on all except the lowest end model which seemed too thin and basic. The Genius was a little too soft for us, and the top of the line Revolution was a little too stiff. The Prodigy felt perfect, just enough give to hold your weight and keep your spine in line and no pressure on the sore spots. We decided to purchase the Prodigy. We would have loved to have had the deluxe base, but at $2975 it was over priced in our opinion. Serta needs to get that down to $1500. The bed was delivered with a standard Serta iComfort boxspring set the next Friday. Again, the quality was top notch. The bed is SO comfortable. It is different from a standard inner spring bed. There is no bounce, and it seems like your dropping onto a firm but soft pad when you lay down. The key to the different bed levels and firmness is the thickness of the core and the number of layers. The more layers the different the feel and the higher the price. As for any smell that some complained about annoyingly, we had a very slight smell the next morning that was like vanilla ice cream. It didn't last the day. Both my wife and I received a free iComfort scrunch pillow, a $160 value. These are not exactly like other heavy foam pillows. These contain the same foam the bed is made from. It allows your head to sink only the right amount to keep it perfectly level and comfortable. It is heavier than a normal pillow. I am a pillow scruncher. I used to scrunch to get the pillow to the proper firmness I liked. This pillow is already there so I had to retrain my self not to scrunch. Now if I can only figure out what to do with these arms I'll be fine! The first night I struggled with the pillow issue, but when I got up my body felt awesome. My wife said the same. We've had our new bed now for about two weeks and each night I sleep so well I have a hard time getting up in the morning. I used to toss and turn when my neck and shoulders would start aching. They do not do that any more. My wife would toss and turn due to lower back problems and pain shooting down her leg. That does not happen any more. I have changed my pillow scrunching habits and have come to like the pillow as well. Over all I am very pleased with this mattress and would recommend it to anyone with soreness issues that keep them up at night. It will not work on pinched nerves, but if you are laying wrong with your limbs and body not supported correctly this mattress should correct that for you.
