Need some mattress advice, anyone have heavenly bed or Ikea mattress?
Comments (20)I use the firmest mattress I have ever felt (a Simmons Beautyrest). It's great. It has only one sleeping side, so no flipping; it's designed for a platform base. This feels like a futon on a floor; it's solid. I'm 6 ft, 170 lbs. The mattress has served me well, with no signs of wear. I hate soft or medium mattresses. IKEA doesn't make one firm enough for me. Be aware, that just because a mattress is innerspring doesn't mean that it doesn't have a latex layer of padding....See MoreWhich adjustable base is the best?
Comments (0)The head has to go up to at least 70 degree. Has to be a wall hugger, massager, plug on each side.. I want to be able to get a headboard that can just be put inside it, so it looks like a normal bed. I just spend a lot on adjustable bed with mattress back in May 2016, the mattress is lumpy! Horrible, it is a Beautyrest Simmons phenom! I want to get a Tempur-Pedic mattress but need a good base. Thanks!...See MoreRound 2 Mattress shopping...
Comments (21)And? As I said - we have zero aches/pains, we no longer go to the chiropractor twice a month for adjustments, we sleep soundly, and have no complaints at all about our mattress. If it only cost (or was worth) $25 and I got these results, I'd still be happy with it. :) Dismissing a product out-of-hand with no first-hand experience is presumptuous. It's a great mattress and has held up longer than our previous (American-made, innerspring) mattress. LOL...See MoreHelp! Can mattresses fold to get upstairs?
Comments (9)NO....do not fold it if it has springs! They will bend PERMENTLY. This happened to us years ago with a very comfortable mattress. It was the movers who actually bent it somehow on their truck. We still have it, but there is a very noticeable bend along the top outer edge of it and there is no way to bend it back into its original shape. Slightly curving it is ok if you have to get it around steps or a sharp corner, but to bend it severely (or try and actually fold it) will cause damage that cannot be undone....See More- 8 years agolast modified: 8 years ago
