Need a new mattress. Opinions?

Wife and I want to go buy a new mattress but not sure what to get. We have the standard mattress/box spring set-up. Can't decide if we want to go with another standard design mattress or a pillow top. I can't spring (no pun intended) for a Sleep # right now, but need something. Any input is helpful.

select comfort... the sleep number bed. I keep wishing and hoping to get one of them someday...

Maybe we could see if we could get a group discount if a bunch of us buy them..???...

I have a Miralux pillow top california king. I like it. Paid 1400 on sale.When I did some research I could find much on it so I took a gamble.

I had an x that had a bed from the Marriot. Now that was a comfortable bed.

Get the W Heavenly bed (Same one they use in their hotels). I have never slept better!

http://www.whotelsthestore.com/item....FQyR1QodB0jZLg

I know they go on 40% off so you have to keep on the lookout. They are made by Simmons and I heard there is a similar model at Costco? Can't confirm though.

I'd read this first before deciding on a mattress. Mattress Reviews

A mattress is probably one of the most subjective thing you can buy. The wife and I went with the Simmons Beautyrest with a Euro plush top. It's just slightly thicker than a plush top alone. Very similar to the W hotel bed and at first, it felt better. Firm and supportive yet soft at first but ended up being too bouncy compared to the Beautyrest. Just try it out at the store and ask what the comparable W bed is so you can get an almost side by side comparison.

On a side note, mattress stores are quite shady. If you think buying a car was shady, mattresses are seriously marked up. We ended up paying about $1400 which we didn't think would happen on a $3K priced mattress. And for those price guarantees, you can just ignore them. All mattress although the same from store to store are just named differently therefore you can never get a price match. If you read the coil counts and specs, they are the same, just named differently to protect their price guarantee offers. The stores however know exactly which mattresses you looked at since they have a database that cross references each stores mattress by name. We purchased at Sleepy's but this is true of most other places we looked at.

Simmons Beauty Rest Clarion pillowtop, $1500 'on sale'. I sleep well on it, but it hasn't made me any better-looking.

Go to someplace that will find a bed that fits you well. I went to Jordan's Furniture in Avon Ma, and they helped me pick a bed that's just right for my weight and body style, etc.

The one I really liked is made with Dunlop rubber, no springs, etc, and it wasn't the most expensive either.
