Do any of you guys love your mattress? I have to buy a new bed for when we move because the one we have now is horribly small and when I do I'm going to need a new mattress as well. I toss and turn for hours on the one we've got now and I wake up with aches and pains all over. I'm trying to research mattresses but it seems like every review says a different mattress is best. So I figure I'll just ask you guys instead. Does anyone have a mattress that they absolutely adore?

That's what we did. We tried out several before finally deciding on one. We chose a memory foam mattress; it's great!!!

That's what our next one will be. I love the memory foam, but after laying on a pillow top here recently, I like it even better.

I haven't tried memory foam but pillow top mattresses are amazing. They are a bit expensive. I wish we would have bought a better mattress - a more fluffy pillow top. I believe it's better to spend a little more money to get a a really good mattress than just getting a so-so one. Good luck.

We have a pillowtop and while most pregnant women are saying that they have to sleep on the couch for comfort I am still loving my mattress.

I can't remember what it is but it was present from my mom for our wedding so it was probably expensive. Me and Dan could probably have afforded a twin boxspring if we had bought it Shocked

yeah I thought about laying on the ones in the store to test them out. that's what i did for this one. it's supposed to have a 10 year life and we've only had it for four years. since testing them doesn't seem to work that's why i'm asking. plus how long would you have to lay on it on the store? i laid on ours for 15 minutes. i'm going to have to schedule a whole day and lay on each one for like an hour or something...

Ok, I hate to sound like I am selling this product; but it has made the biggest difference in my life. I was having the worst sleep problems. I would wake up sore all over. I bought a sleep number bed and my life is amazing. There is nothing more amazing than waking up feeling refreshed instead of smacking the snooze button repeatedly. My employees knew to avoid me until after 10am because I was just too crabby. Now I'm actually awake without the help of caffiene (which I can't have since I became pregnant).
The only drawback is the price. I admit, I had a hard time swallowing the price. I could have had a 2 week vacation in Mexico or had an amazing shopping spree. At least go to a mattress store and check it out.
