Search Results For "Select Comfort"

I tried a Select Comfort several years ago and absolutely hated it, especially the ridge down the middle when it wasn't fully inflated.  In order to get it to be supportive, it had to be fully inflated which made it uncomfortably hard.  You can't get hung up on the number reading.  It is useless as it changes with the temperature in the room and after you warm the bed while sleeping on it..

Sometime after that, I tried a Nautilus (no longer made) and it wasn't too bad.  At the time, I thought it wasn't good enough.  Little did I know how bad things could get.  I decided after many failures with other things (water, latex, pocketed springs/latex, pocketed springs/pu, McRoskey) to take one last stab at air.  Right now I'm trying a trizone for 90 days.  At the 25-day mark, I'm not sure.  I'm feeling about 80% less sore, but...

However, even with high quality HR foam, what I find is that the first night or two will often be good but after another night or two, it softens up.

Jim, I know exactly what you're talking about. I had the same experience with a latex mattress. The first night on any configuration was fine. The second night the mattress felt too soft and my back was uncomfortable. It got worse each night until I rearranged the cores again. I thought about this phenomenon long and hard and came to the conclusion that it's not...

Hi imjay, Yes, I have considered a waterbed. I used to sleep on one of the old wavey squishy waterbags when I was in my 20's and loved it! And  then in my 30's I had a little more complex one with some baffling in it and that was fine, too. Finally it kept leaking at the corners and I had to get rid of it.

Then, about 5 years ago I slept on my nephew's waterbed for a couple nights and that felt very good, too (his was a more modern one with baffling and maybe some foam in it?)

So I am interested in water beds but when I looked at them 7 years or so ago all the ones I found that looked to be of a good quality were too expensive. May I ask if you can recommend a not-too expensive one?

I am not ready to try one...
