I need a matress!

**Kep!** · 09-20-2007, 10:46 AM

Hit me folks...give me your best, worst, whatever. I need a king that's worth a damn and not going to crush me.

I kid you not, I lost my bed in the last move. Shoot me.

Go with memory foam...it was invented by NASA!

Well, I don't know about brands, but be sure to make them show you the box springs you're buying; they often don't have these out on display at the showroom, they just bring it when they deliver the mattress. The supposed box springs that came with my mattress, which I paid about $200 for on top of the price of the mattress itself, turned out to have no springs at all; it was just a frame of 1X2's with a piece of masonite stapled to the top, all wrapped in fabric.

I'm still kind of pissed off about it.

I can give you my mattress for a house or food, maybe even a car.
I'm willing to dance, rap or draw to cover the rest of the expense.

Amadarwin · 09-20-2007, 11:39 AM

Uh...Kep? I can understand losing things in a move. Really, I can. I'm sure we're all guilty of it to some degree, but....A KING BED? How the hell do you misplace THAT?!

**Kep!** · 09-20-2007, 11:39 AM

I'm hip. I have that with my last one. Odd, eh? I'm definately investigating that fourther this time.

wisper · 09-20-2007, 12:31 PM

buy a king size high end matress and just put on the floor...it's low but very nice..you would be suprized.

We're getting advice on mattresses here now?

What is this, grandpa's house?

Spacious Interior · 09-20-2007, 01:18 PM

Quiet you! I'm busy typing up a thread for advice on fall gardening tips, and what to do with Kep's old mattress.

Knuckles · 09-20-2007, 01:21 PM

Pillow-top are the most comfortable to me. That's a type of mattress and not a brand.

Should we discuss the changing prices of canned goods?

Newt · 09-20-2007, 01:37 PM

Hush now, Bucky, the grown-ups are talking. Go play in the street.

I have one of those, sort of. Mine has a memory foam top, then a layer of normal foam, then springs in pockets. It's the best bed I've ever had.
