Mattress – Do You Need a New One?

I NEED a new Mattress!! Mine has lumps and bumps and springs that seem to find every bone in my body at some point during the night. I have a platform bed—so I only need the mattress—not the bedspring. Think it would be easy-huh? I mean with all the mattress stores around you’d think I could just go out and get on--NOT!!

First off there are soooo many brands to choose from—then there are all the different types. There are pillow top, foam, then the one that forms to your body, water beds, the ones that you can adjust to your sleep number and various regular ones.
I really do prefer foam—unfortunately so would my cat—it would last maybe a week-if that! I did have a foam mattress once-I also had a dog who decided to make nests for me, my other dog and herself-(actually the fit was perfect!). I tried the posture pedic one in a store—lets just say at my weight I sunk in and could not get back out-nor could I even turn over-so that one is not an option either-plus kitty cat would probably do that one in as well as soon as I turned my back! Waterbed—talk flooded bedroom leaking down into neighbors apartment (CLAWS again). The pillow tops would be turned into a regular mattress soon enough. That leaves me with 2 choices really-a sleep number bed or one of the regular mattress—

I did find an on line store, www.mattress1.com , that has great mattresses while I was surfing around. It has every imaginable type available and all the name brands at great prices!! Beauty Rest by Simmons has the mattress I would love to purchase. They have great deals all the time, as well as really nice financing terms. Too bad I live in New York and not in Florida or I would go to one of their 100 locations in a NY minute!

I find it kind of overwhelming to shop for mattresses, but the rewards of good sleep are worth it!

I do need one! We were shopping a while ago, but decided to wait a bit longer. It's hard to pick the perfect mattress.

I really do need a good mattress!

There are so many options!!

Foam mattress would not be an option for me either. Haha my dog would totally love the nest idea, too. He bit a bunch of chunks out of a foam mattress topper we had. We took the sheet off to change it, and 10 minutes later there was a storm cloud of foam chunks everywhere! I can only image what a whole mattress missing chunks would look like. What a nightmare! Back to the drawing board on ideas here...

Yes, I do... but I hate mattress shopping. Expensive and exhausting. I think I should be able to go in and take an undisturbed hours nap on each to do a thorough test. :)

Oh man, I hate our current old mattress! Lumpy and squishy, I think it's a hand-me-down times two. It's so hard to pick a new one though! They're all so wonderful and such a big improvement on my current situation!

You HAVE to get a new one. We just got one and LOVE it!

We are in desperate need of a mattress, but probably won't happen for a few more years. sigh...
