Re: Thanks SAABNET - Bed/Matress Advice Posted by Randy Thatcher [Email] (#22) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Randy Thatcher) on Sun, 22 Jul 2007 10:38:22 In Reply to: Thanks SAABNET - Bed/Matress Advice, Randy Thatcher [Profile/Gallery] , Sun, 23 Oct 2005 13:19:32 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Followup for those who use the search function. I'm giving up on the Bragada mattress. The memory foam (top part) is great, but after 6 or so months the foam underneath has developed dips (think the butt groove on Homer Simpson's couch). Flipping and rotating didn't help.
I just found a spring type mattress we like at dirtcheapmattress.com in Oakland, CA. Basically they sell overstock, scratch/dent type stuff. It's all one-offs. You go in, tell them the size and firmness, and they start unstacking from the walls and putting them on the floor for you to try. When you're happy, you buy it for 50%+ off of retail. Very hassle free and low pressure. I think I'm getting some kind of Beautyrest one, and it will be delivered tonight.
I wasn't hating the Bragada yet, but my wife never lets me hear the end of it. Her back, side, etc. We have a 5 week old baby and the sogginess mattress really pissed her off near the end of the pregnancy. She still has a hard time getting out of the bed due to it's sinkhole quality and her c-section recovery.
