Let's talk beds....

[blanche]

After getting almost pushed out of bed again last night by my greedy, spoiled 25 pound dog, both MH and I have agreed things will only get worse when I get bigger and so we are going to upgrade to a King size mattress. We went to try some out today and are torn between a Sleep Number, Tempurpedic, and Hybrid (Serta iComfort). The Hybrid is much much less expensive than either the Sleep Number or Tempurpedic, but as I said, we're torn. We are worried that we might want the adjustable nature of the sleep number as I get bigger, but who knows.

So what mattress do you have. Do you like it? Why or why not?

We got a new queen a couple years ago. It's a pillow top. Lurvvveeee it! I think it's a Serta...IDK.

I know people who have the Sleep Number and love it, I also know someone who has that Hybrid one and they love it too.


So...I guess I"m not much help here...

We often say how we should have gotten a king...maybe it's something we'd look at down the road. I think I'd give more thought to the Sleep Number if we did. I really like the how they adjust!

Try Mlily! I really like the Serenity and it's much cheaper than those other companies (usually). They don't advertise and put the $$ into the product, not the advertising.
Mlilyusa.com should have a list of dealers in your area.
HTH!

I have a latex mattress that I LOVE, but it weight a million pounds, which makes it very difficult to change the sheets. It is an Eastern King and was not cheap.

With that said...is it weird that I want one of those adjustable beds next go round? Seems so convenient!

We bought ours almost 9 years ago and I have no idea what it is!! It is a king so I'm happy at night!

ETA: it's not spring/coil whatever they're called. It's freaking heavy.

I hate how heavy mattresses are! And they just get heavier over time with all our dead skin cells.......ewww. I just grossed myself out. Sorry.

There's a company called Protect-A-Bed that makes mattress protectors you can toss in the wash. We have one that completely covers the mattress (for bed bugs, not that we have any around here) and a fitted sheet one we wash all the time. Because yeah, I was told we lose a quart of liquids a night. Bleh.

Blahhhhh!! I got a cover thing from BB&B but it didn't fit our mattress. I guess with the pillow top it is to thick. I must look for a new one.

We just upgraded to a temperpedic with adjustable bases last fall (from a hybrid coil/foam mattress). It took me a good 2 months to actually like the bed but now I love it. I'm really hoping it helps with sleep during the later months of this pregnancy.

You don't have to share if you don't want but I'm curious as to what the price range is for it with the adjustable bases.

Exactly this! We bought a Tempurpedic with adjustable bases after I struggled with back pain. For the first few months I thought we had completely wasted $9k! I still he a bad back and couldn't get used to it. Now I LOVE it and sleep so well. We got two king singles which I was a hit funny about at first but now like the fact that when DH rolls around it doesn't move my side. I'm thinking the adjustable is going to be great for night feeds etc.

We paid around $ 6000 for the entire thing (kind mattress and two twin adjustable bases). I think each base was $700. our bases don't move individually of each other since we have a king mattress.

We have a tempurpedic and both looooove it. It's pretty old, too- 8 yrs now I think? I stayed at a hotel that had a Sleep Number bed and hated it, but I know some people love them. GL!

We have a Queen, Sealey I believe. Now that we're expecting #2, I'm thinking of upgrading to a King. DH is fine with how it is now, but with my bad back/bruised tailbone, it's hard to get comfortable when you feel like you have no room. And then add 2 children for cuddling?
