Hi, i was so excited to get my gel foam Kamryn Firm blacklabel Beautyrest label bed. And... as side sleeper, wanted great sleep and great support. After 2 wks, i sink in the middle (normal wt -female) and when i turn occ. in night as side sleeper, the bed takes literally 10 minutes to conform to my body . My shoulders thus 'hits' my cheeks , like I am saying "i dont know' shrugs...as I sleep, causing major tingling in arms/ fingers off/on all nights. Holy Neuropathy!! no joke. Major $$$ spent on bed. The issue: please read Simmons CEO: that gel foam with 'structured cell's to breathe and foam with holes (yes, i read brochure) and light weave (vs tight weave) surrounding bed cause cool foam (vs hot temperpedic) : yay for us perimenopausal woman, but.....(Here it is) the bed, thus sinks.... like Sumo wrestler, and you wait 10 mins till i get to my normal shape. It is VERY plush bed labelled Kamyrn Firm. (firm in price, not support). So, if you like to sink (2 wks old) and sink on sides as you manuveur to get out of bed (olympics, calgary) then this is for you . I so so so dont want to go mattress shopping, but for this big $$, shame on Beautyrest for not having long term studies/tests on this . I laid for 30-mins 2 x in store. Store was harder (vs softer) . Mine is too soft. Comfy, but my neck /shoulders are killing me since night i slept in it. And tingling hands.. NOt what i signed up for. My take: i think they mass produced these beds for all stores , change color/cover, etc. but dont test them long term. My take. Sad.
Date Purchased: march 2013
Price Paid: $2000
Recommend: No

Pros:

so comfy from the waist down. Odd, yes. and a foam that is not cool (as they all say.........ugh) but it warms up to your body, hence memory foam , but... it doesnt get hot as that original Temperpedic. So, the technology is there. but there is NO support when you poke all holes in it to 'vent'. Come on , find some M.I. T. engineers and make a good gel foam supportive bed. If we can make Iphone ? lets do this!!!

Cons:

said it. my poor shoulders and neck are smushed.....major smushed ..........while I sleep. and it takes major Pilates classes to turn side to side . its a very very heavy bed. But.. nice on coolness/ well, warmness . But lousy support wrapping the bed, and why the heck is bed dippign in middle after 2 wks. All the websites are cited this, but.........i bought the bed 'after' i read websites , which was big mistake. And big bucks. what does the CEO of Black Label sleep on? Enquiring minds want to know.
