Yeah, if someone's going to ride your ass, do it on a clean mattress.

Well, the purchase is over with as far as my guest room is concerned.
Ended up with a "Darlington Plush/Firm" from Mattress Warehouse for $190.
Seems decent for the price, but I haven't laid on it for more than a minute.
I did feel like I was going to fall asleep toward the end of that minute. ;)

Only gripe I have is that my base is exactly 54" wide and the mattress supposed to be 54" wide, but is in fact less than 52" wide.
So I have a 1+" ledge on each side which I didn't want. I assume it's undersized to reduce production costs. ::)

I have a queen size memory foam, but it does get real hot in the summer. Winter is not so bad, but the quality of rest you get is fantastic, except when it is time to get up for work...real problems there. ;D

I know you have already purchased your mattress but when you are in the market again, look into Latex Mattresses, They do not have a lot of the issues many people complain about with the memory foam (heat, sinking into bed, hard to get out of...). I had to get a new bed a few years ago and had never heard of latex until I started my research, I'm very happy with mine, if I were to buy another I would try a topper to see if a like it mattress to be a little firmer.

I'll provide a link to the place where I purchased mine, I went with this company because they give you 365 days to try the mattress out, and if you do not like it you are only out about $75.00 to ship it back for a refund. They also sell pure botanical foam which is another reason I went with them.

Memory foam and latex mattresses are expensive.

Anyway, here are the links. I have no affiliation with this company, but this should give you enough info to educate you on what a latex mattress is.

Just realized this is the original video I watched about 6 years ago, its outdated and mentions a 180 day return policy which is not 365 days.

Also noticed an instant rebate going on that ends in a day or two.

Wife always wanted a Tempur-Pedic but hated the price tag. No matter who you buy from, it's $3500 brand new. I never wanted one but she's a little girl with big back problems and I'm a big dude that shakes the bed when I come home late from Curling or softball. I basically told her, it's the most used and important piece of furniture you own, so price shouldn't be an issue. She found a Cal King bed frame she really liked and then purchased the Cal King Tempur-Pedic. We got it from Mattress Firm for 60 months, no interest. So it equated too ~$65 bucks per month for 5 years.

Mentions have been made about movement being muffled when on one. Perhaps with knock-offs, sure. For me, I hated that feeling/thought. Having owned/slept on one for two years now, it's a non-issue. The Tempur-Pedic has plenty of bounce and the slight muffling you get used to real quick. The feeling of laying down, and slightly sinking in is mystifying. It's like the worlds concerns leave you and it's all gravy. Now, when I come in from curling at midnight, I can slide into bed and not disturb her at all.

Thickness. This is another section people don't do enough research on. If the mattress isn't 11" or thicker you aren't getting the true benefits of it and you could cause harm to your body.

TLDR; Get the real thing, Tempur-Pedic only. Get it 11" or thicker. Price sucks, but get a good finance deal with no interest. 100% worth it.
