Ok, so finding a bed that gives you a good night's sleep is a really hard task. And sleeping well determines how we feel and function during the day - we all know that. I've shopped beds for years now and finally have come across a company that I would recommend to anyone looking for a new mattress or a mattress and box spring set. It's a close out and truckload place, so the bed you try out is the one you get delivered to your house, not a bed that is new and feels different than the bed you tested in a showroom somewhere. You might like this guy's philosophy, maybe not. To him, after selling countless beds, it's simple. It's springs and foam (or just latex or just foam), it's not rocket science and not every bed works for every person. You test, you hurt, you get up, move on and try another bed. Everything is new, encased in plastic. The prices are one third what you'd pay for the same bed at any bedding or furniture store.
My experience: I shopped stores all over Houston, got a "bedding education", found this company on line one morning, called, I liked the sound of it all, figured it couldn't hurt to take a look and drove out on a pretty day. Told them the way I felt when I woke up, where I hurt, how I slept, medical conditions, etc. They pointed to beds for me to try. I ended up with a latex bed (the first bed I was pointed toward oddly enough). Bought on a Saturday evening, delivered on a Monday late afternoon - at a discount because the delivery man they use had an emergency and got there later than earlier. The delivery guy set up the new high quality metal frame on wheels (inexpensive with this company) in the spare bedroom, put the new box springs on, moved the "old" mattress (not old, just didn't work for us) to the spare room, then he and my hubby (the emergency took the 2nd delivery guy away) brought the new mattress in together and put it on the existing box springs. Did you just gasp? It's not rocket science and a foundation is a foundation, this guy won't sell you what you don't need.... if you have good quality box springs that are not old, you don't need to buy more so you only buy the mattress. "Really? But I was told that matching mattress and box springs were essential to owning a proper bed set". Rubbish. "You should expect a period of getting used to your new bed." Yeah, I heard that story from the last 3 stores where I've bought my "fantastic" beds from - Mattress Giant twice, Gallery Furniture once. Mattress Giant is a joke. The story is long, but they "worked with me for 30 days", then the store guarantee ran out and I was stuck. Mattress Firm will give you a 90 day Happiness guarantee and a great education about bedding, wonderful commisioned sales people with lots of knowledge. Visit them, then go buy your bed at the place I'm recommending, cuz the same beds are there... except the sample bed will actually be your bed and not feel different in your home because the floor model has been rolled around on by countless people.
The first night on my new latex mattress and 2 year "old" box springs, I slept so hard, I didn't roll over or move. I felt drugged the next day because I was so well rested. I haven't slept that hard in years. Every night has been that way. I don't ache when I get up any more, and I don't feel "drugged", just well rested.
You never want to "cheap out" when buying a mattress and/or box springs, you need quality. And now you can spend less money doing it. Hope they are around for a while:
