Bought a Verlo V5 king pillow top, double sided mattress. Got a friend of a friend deal here in Boulder. Wasn't expecting to like a pillow top but I kept going back to this one (and the $2800 one as well!).
Zero sciatica pain since this was delivered and I can even sleep on my back a little, not just my side. The beauty rest was my next choice.

We have a pricey Sterns and Foster mattress that is 10-13 years old, so it is time. Reading through this thread and looking at the mattresses mentioned, I am uncertain what to buy. I like the L&L as it is the thickest at 12 inches (closest to what we now have) but I also like the Panges Bed description, which at $795 for a queen is just a smokin deal compared to what we previously paid.
I like the sound of the latex material as I need the bed as cool as possible and the copper infusion helping to kill some germs sounds like an added bonus if it really works.
Presently, I toss and turn like a mofo. I attribute that to my two dorked out shoulders, so can anyone with these beds take a moment to comment on the bed now that they have had it for awhile?
Huh? Where did PowderHorse's post go? Was going to reply. Oh well.... let me just say for the 100th time I LOVE MY BEAUTYREST BLACK!
(I got the middle child of five models - not pillow top, luxury firm. Side/back/front sleeper. I'm all over the place!)
Edit: I swear her post wasn't there when I posted this but now I see it. Fork..... going nutz or something......
I'm very pleased with my Pangea. Right firmness and nice construction. I do think it sleeps warmer than my ol' regular mattress but nothing dramatic. I'm in the SW so your climate and experience may vary.Quote:

My Juna opens up and you can change the stack and put latex, gel foam or energex foam on top. I put the energex on top.
Shopping for a queen mattress to be delivered to my parents' house for their guest bed. Looking for something firmer than a Casper.
Spelling error builds confidence. Did Trump design their web page? Regardless, it's below the $1,000 mark.Quote:
is not the JUNA way, instead it's set at a fare price
I have an Englander (made in Portland OR) in my guest room that people rave about. I've not slept on it myself but for the 100th time I love my Beautyrest Black (plush-firm model).
I have a 8 year old Sleep Innovations 10" that has no sagging and is quite firm. It's held up better than any mattresse Ive had. Only downside is no bounce.Quote:

Awoke this morning consciously thankful that we got a Loom & Leaf firm king mattress nearly one year ago. Big fat reco, 5 stars
Casper's new design is a knock off or theirs, although the flo foam they use isn't as good as energex.Quote:

While it’s not technically latex or memory foam, it has some of the properties of each. It feels fairly similar to memory foam, but it is a little more bouncy (but not as bouncy as latex foam). Underneath that foam is 7 inches of a high density support foam that most foam mattresses have. The surface (or “ticking” as we call it in the bed biz) is a synthetic rayon/polyester blend. This is a fairly simple, straightforward mattress with no frills, which leads to the lower price point."
Polyurethane foam isn't going to be anywhere as good long term as energex, latex or memory foam.
T and F is really a marketing company,their beds were designed and made for a price point by a bedding supplier. They don't hold any patents or new ideas.
So is the newer Casper firmer than what I tried last summer, I hope?
My parents are Costco members. Sounds like Sleep Innovations is available there?
The Juna website has so many typos I refuse to give them my business. :wink:
However, does it make a good platform for sex?Quote:

anyone have any experience with these cheap ones? reviews ain't bad....

That one looks like a really decent build, for a low end mattress. "3-inches of a 3 lb density gel memory foam" is nice(2.5-3# is my fav) at $515 you are $400 away from getting energex foam and a better core from somebody else.Quote:

Zinus seems to make one at the bottom end $200-$500 that might be worth consideration as well. It's half of what you have $ above and would feel pretty close.
These are all made in China though and I'd be surprised if the glue they use didn't give Chinese kids cancer.
If you need a frame...
Zinus seems to be the best built, cheap, steel base but the center legs are too close to the edges of the frame. I smash my toes into them once in a while and wish death upon the prick that didn't move them in 8". Other than that, they are the best frame for the money.

Years ago my wife's and I bought a Sleep Number queen. It's rad for us because I'm over a foot taller and almost 100 lbs heavier than her so I can set up my half of the bed to support my busted up body. And it's rad for moving. Deflate, roll it up. Done
I stand corrected...in my defense though I didn't work in the marketing dept. so I didn't have access to any data they may have had regarding fucking on a spring vs. foam.Quote:

$60 at Walmart.
The one pictured is their 22" high model. I've tried the 13" instead....it fits my Ikea slat-type bedframe in the guest room well. The 22" is very high.
They have a built-in airpump, so they are adjustable in firmness.
Don't laugh! I swear I thought these were goingto feel like a cheap inflatable mattress....I was totally surprised by how comfortable they are. They have some sort of velour coating infused onto the surface, so no plasticy feel.
Has this one been discussed? Just saw it in a pop-up ad:
https://www.tomorrowsleep.com/
It looks like a loom and leaf mattress (which is a mid level saatva) with a better side wall for $100 less.Quote:

Saatva? Hmmmm....maybe a typo and you meant sativa? ;) A cannabis filled mattress? That would make Jeff Session's head explode!!! So, would that make the sheets EZ Widers??Quote:

Holy crap, thanks for the heads up. Prices on their website are nuts. Might be getting a new bed this weekend.
Everybody has an "annual labor day mattress sale". They also have annual President's Day, Independence Day, Memorial Day, and Pound You in the Ass Day sales. It doesn't matter what day you go mattress shopping, you're going to get the same deal.Quote:

You don't need a box spring for platform beds but you can if you want. If you choose to go mattress only make sure the slats aren't too far apart esp. if you're getting a mattress like Caspar (memory foam etc.). It will ruin your mattress and may void any warranty.Quote:

But what about my box spring. Seems useless
These look nice but I seek something sleeker and perhaps in a showroom gloss white. Minimalist. Sleep.Quote:
