Guess the bolded answers the question on whether you liked the mattress.
Looking for a New Mattress
- Thread starter Tre4ISU
- Start date
We've got a Sealy Posturepedic and love it. I think there are 3-4 different models/levels of firmness and we went with the 2nd most firm. When testing the firmest was slightly uncomfortably when sleeping on the side (which the GF does a lot).
Sealy basically makes the best mattresses on the floor. When I told the sales guy, after trying several other brands/models, they seemed to feel the best (and were rated as such) he basically said "there's a reason Sealy's don't run a lot of sales"; they don't need to. When they do it's all factory based, so unless a store is going out of business, they are usually the same price everywhere.
Hope this helps someone.

Haha...we actually got it as soon as we found out she was pregnant...but I'll tell you what, if she wasn't then she would be now!
I bought a $2000 sealy posteurpedic hybrid 5-10 years ago for $800 on Black Friday. It had a huge dip where I sleep in less than 6 months and caused severe back pain lol. I replaced it with a Amazon cheapo and it's 1000x better. We had wildly different experiences. For reference I'm like 210 pounds.
Damn dude. Everyone makes lemons, even good companies, but if it did that after 6 months I'd be PISSED. Especially given the amount of time I spent researching and trying out.
We've had ours now for about 2-3 years. We weigh between 180-200 lbs and the bed (thus far) has held up well.
Looking for a bed is one of the bigger pain in the ass buys I've had the last several years. It's one of the more important, yet consistently underrated, purchases one makes.
No doubt. A bed is one of those things I'd never buy online without being able to text out the model on a floor somewhere. Much the same with buying shoes.
