    Question We need a new bed!

    I was reading past forums under mattress. Seems alot of ladies here like the tempurpedic. My husband was thinking sleep number.
    It's so hard to try out a bed in the store and make a decision. I'll be wanting to second guess it.
    So I guess the question is what do you sleep on and do you recommend it?
    Right now we have a cheapie. So my guess is almost anything will be better.
    Also I'm thinking my husband is not going to want a tempurpedic, b/c they get hot.

    My ex and I used to stay at Westin Hotels and fell in love with the Heavenly bed. We bought one two years ago and I kept the bed when we split up. It's the best bed I've every slept in. It's a huge investment but worth it. We made our travel plans around being able to sleep in these beds. Our total cost was over 2,400 for a queen set with the sheets and everything. Worth every penny.

    We have a Tempurpedic and both of us loooooooove it. And no, it does not get hot. We bought the real Tempurpedic though, not a knock off, which I hear can make a difference.

    I slept on a tempurpedic, and it wasn't for me. I actually hurt more when I woke up. I'm really interested in the sleep number bed, as you can adjust the settings for each side, since I live with my man.

    I think the Heavenly Bed is a type of Simmons Beauty Rest. I like those more than the tempurpedic ones too. The Tempurpedic is just too squishy for me. The one guy I dated who had one, I didn't like it. You sort of gradually sink in and I like having more springs and support.

    We love our Sleep number. We can each set our side and although you don't change it that much it is nice to be able to when you want to. Would buy another in a heartbeat if we needed too

    Im in love with memory foam. I have a really bad back and neck and ever since i've started sleeping on the memory foam my back/neck have felt so much better and I havn't had any migraines, which I am very prone to.

    Thanks! Still looking. It's going to be a bit I guess. There is soooo much confusing info out there on what to get or not get. And I loathe salespeople.
    We were thinking sleep number, but now I'm not sure. I feel like my head will explode from trying to make a good informed choice!

    i sleep on a futon, but i'm not going to recommend it, most find they're not comfortable enough, but i still love my tinky little futon...maybe it's it the scandinavian in me or the fact that i just grew up on one. i want a new bed though, something bigger since i'm tall. just another thing to save up for...considering i just bought a laptop.

    Just to throw out there for those on a budget... Ikea seriously has the worlds most comfortable mattresses. I've slept on anything and everything over the years even the most expensive of mattresses and Ikea still takes the cake for the most comfortable lol.

    ^yeah!!! i'm currently sleeping on an ikea futon mattress. i'm not a futon advocate but i like sleeping on a firm mattress. it's great for back support, if you find it's too firm you can get mattress top to get that squishy feeling and then fill up on really comfortable pillows. this is how my bed is and i find it really comfortable. i really do like my bed, there's nothing like rolling into bed with a ton of big squishy pillows and a firm mattress and clean, crisp sheets after a long day.

    One really interesting thing about The Sleep Number is that you don't feel the other person move
    I have been an insomniac since I was 19 and my wife used to wake me up by just getting up in the night to pee. Now I come to bed late and I don't wake her up...unless ...and if she gets up before me it does not wake me up

    I just sleep on the floor (hardwood). Supposedly it's the *best* and healthiest way to sleep. I'm fine with it now but I'll probably buy a memory foam bed when I start dancing.

    I was also considering buying a new mattress but after a little research I've decided to buy a Japanese futon that goes on the floor (or you could put it on a platform bed). The Japanese futon is a lot different than the cheaper American kind that converts into a couch and feels really uncomfortable. (Search "shikibuton" or "shiki futon"). I think it's more natural and perfect for me because I plan on traveling a lot and its easier to move than a regular bed.

    Any time i've slept on the floor I woke up paralyzed... I have a seriously bad back, there is no way I can sleep on a floor. Same with my man. He slept on the floor once and couldn't move and was in tears the next morning. We have a memory foam bed thats fairly firm and it seems to be the best for us both.

    I got used to it. Once I got used to it I got rid of my bed. I sleep on top of a thick heating pad+thick blankets. It's not bad at all once you get used to it! My back actually hurts a LOT if I sleep on a soft mattress. Those suckers do not support my spine at all. I stretch a lot which helps me feel great

    What did people used to sleep on before they invented beds?
