Hi Everyone,

As I was doing research online, I came across this awesome forum. I just purchased this furniture set from costco and it should arrive a in few weeks.

After some research I narrowed down my choices to

and

http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Bodipedic-10-inch-California-King-size-Memory-Foam-Mattress-and-Cover-Set/1898764/product.html

 

and optional Foam topper (only $75, seems like a steal!)

Currently I am on a full size Sealy Posturepedic spring mattress and after sleeping on my brother's Bodipedic Foam mattress, I feel like it's time to upgrade. What do you guys think?

Hi Phoenix,

I'm lucky to have found such an active forum with knowledgable people like yourself. After reading your article on Memory Foam mattresses, I feel a bit uncertain about going this route. I didn't notice that both the Serta and Bodipedic are manufactured by Sleep Innovations. That makes sense now, because both were top rated on Bestcovery.com. Everything is so commericial these days.

The main reason I am changing the mattress is because my gf is complaining that my current mattress is too small as she likes to sprawl out. She is more of a side sleeper whereas I like to sleep on my back. The room temperature does not change drastically here in San Francisco and we are both well under $250 lbs, After spending some time with the search on this forum, I have come to the realization that there are just so many variables to consider, it will definitely take some time.

Your suggestion to buy from a place that has a good return policy is a great idea. I need to visit a few stores to figure out what density would be ideal for us and then go from there.

 

Thanks for warning me from getting sucked into the "hype"!

 

Daniel
