So the lovely fiance' and I are looking for a new bed. Whatever we get, it's going to be King sized. We're kinda leaning toward a Tempur-pedic. Money is no object. (within reason)
Anyone got any suggestions or personal experiences they'd care to share.
Thanks.
I've heard some decent reviews about the Tempur-pedics.
Friend of mine purchased one and he said he gets to sleep quicker than he did on his old bed. Although he freely admitted his old bed was a POS, I think being able to get to sleep quicker is definitely worth something.
He also told me that his fiance would often wake him up from moving around so much at night on their old bed but there is so little movement in the Tempur bed that he not longer has that problem.
All in all, he likes the thing. I'm not sure how I would feel about it. I've slept on extremely thick Tempur pillow-tops and was iffy about them. I know its not the same but if it were, I'd probably just got with another bed.
I got too hot and the Tempur pillow top took shape so much that the material almost gets hard. I assume both of these wouldn't be problems with a real Tempur bed. Pretty sure my buddy was telling me that the Tempur bed has a custom frame that lets air circulate at a much higher level than normal.
Of course the downside to those beds is their price. I think my friend paid around $1700 for his and I think he got a queen. Don't quote me on that but I think that is what it was.
If you have the cash to spend on it, I think it might be something worth looking into. I would definitely try and find one of those places that has a guarantee or trial period or something like that. Laying on the bed in the store is nothing like what it will be like at home. After 8-9 hours of sleep, or whatever you get, you better believe it won't be so heavenly. Of course, that is any bed.
