I am interested in this bed, but would like to try laying on a similar bed before I make this purchase. Could you recommend a bed that we could test?

check on the shipping and return policy, the costs are yours and they will be huge. This bed is very hard but would cost nearly as much to return as it would to buy.

I like this bed. After a year I have had no problems. But I have a foam mattress and am considering a getting a new mattress which may be heavier. I'd like to know if anyone has had problem with a heavier mattress.

Which bed size were you looking for (full, twin, queen or king)? I will have to get back to you in about a week. So sorry. The beds are at a different house. Please reply to bk@familysloan.netThanks.

My experience is a reduction in back pain which I have suffered with for years. However, I have had an increase in hip pain. The bed is soft enough that I sink in some and it cradles me. I believe the increase in pain is related to the fact that I no longer toss and turn. I think my body had become so used to moving that I stiffen up a little not moving. The bed is definitely softer than I would like, but I do sleep through the night which is new for me. I would call the bed comfortable, supportive is not the first word that comes to mind. In our household we spend quite a bit of time sitting in the bed and it is much more comfortable to sleep in than to sit on. For us, it has been an improvement over a traditional mattress.

Hi. Yes. We put it on my daughters bunk bed. There isn't anything under it but the wooden slats and she now prefers to sleep in her own bed. It would probably rival my own bed if you put it over some sort of solid mattress but with her light weight, it was not a problem. I don't think that it would be comfortable over just the wooden slats for an adult. The bed is nice. I think that it is a great value and we haven't given it a second thought. It was ready to go in a few minutes and opening it was fun. It shipped quickly and beat several other in Stock items to my home that were ordered in the same batch. Enjoy. Hi. Yes.

My daybed was spot on. I'd recommend searching for this bed on different sites so you can see the different lightings and pictures to get a good picture of the color. But mine is a deep rich color that looks exactly like I thought it would based on the picture. It was pretty easy to assemble as well. I was worried about how it would hold up, but I've had it a few months now, and it's been fine so far.

Hi Medi, I'm out of town right now so I can't go to my own bed and experiment with the sheet. All I can say is that it seemed pretty standard to me . . . do you regularly have trouble with standard fitted sheets? If so, you might have the same problem with these. Write back if you want me to experiment a bit when I'm home again (Sunday, Jan. 5) and get back to you with more info.

I am extremely happy with my purchase. I was worried at first but so far I am glad I took the chance. This is by far the best mattress I have owned. I have tried Ikea, Simmons, Beautyrest, etc. I did build my own box spring and put in extra support. I believe that helps also. I cant speak for the bed you are talking about but I have purchased a few Ikea beds and all have been slated bed base which didnt provide enough support for my back. All I can do is vouch for the mattress. It is excellent but I suppose that if it doesnt have a good platform to be on it will probably give.

I also purchased this bed for company. We used it daily for over a week and had no problems. If it seemed low after a few days of use, we just turned the air pump on for a minute to make it firm again.

It definitely has that "marshmallow" feel. I am experiencing that this bed has much more give than the one that I used to own. In fact, my last one did not really leave the body impression. Like I said in my post I wish that I had seen and sprung for the $750. I am not 100% unsatisfied but from the information that I have the Deluxe would be better.

Seems like you need to get a new bed. =) Had the same issue. I then went to my local costco warehouse and purchased a NovaForm memory bed (spent 299 for a queen) and added this. AMAZING! I have slept on 3k-5k mattresses and the use of both products comes super close to the feeling.

I had the same experience at the beginning, but I took it apart and looked at the directions again. they are not the clearest but once I figured how it should go, it turned out well and it's a great bed. sturdy and unshakable. good make and great deal.good luck

I would love for someone to answer this question! I posted about the split box spring, but it was erased....so I'm eager to know if the split box spring will work for this bed before I purchase it

Go around to some mattress shops in your town and try them out. Especially the memory foam and latex ones, and make notes of the ones you like. If you have the names of the models of national brands that you like, you'll be able to give Chuck a better idea of what you like. I personally said pretty much the same as you and probably would have picked an 8 going in cold. I went to a Tempurpedic shop and tried out the mattresses and realized I wanted one just a little bit firmer, so when I corresponded with Chuck I picked a 7, and I'm very happy with it. But you're the only who can decide.

I couldn't find that information, either. If I were put to hazarding a guess, I would think not, just based on price, but that's a bed guess. Perhaps contact the seller?
