hey all,
Ok here's the TRUE skinny on beds. Most beds today are made in 3 styles.. firm, plush, and pillowtop. If you haven't bought a bed in 9yrs or more, you really don't know what's out there. In the "old" days they basically made 2 types of beds hard.. or soft... period. But the soft beds broke down BAD!!!! So they ( most of all the vendors ) stop making those beds. Today, all they make are hard beds... But what they do now is put a lot of cushion on top to make it feel softer. So if you buy a softer bed, it's simply a firm with more cushion. Today they also make just one sided beds -no need to flip your bed anymore- The vendors realized they were replacing a lot of warranty issues when they shouldn't have ( people not flipping their beds ). So that is why they are one sided and the base is stronger. Your question, is too soft a bed bad... Yes, and too hard of a bed is also bad. The answer is very easy, to some too easy. Simply buy what is the MOST comfortable... In saying that, most of the ladies like is softer and guys have a tendency to like it a little firmer. In any marriage it's the key word " compromise "...And don't get sucked in on the hype.. more coils,thicker wire etc etc. This is simply a way for crappy sales people to get you to pay more than you need to. Most people have no idea what any of the " jargon " really means. Any quality bed made will hold at least 400-500lbs of weight. So any bed is " good for you " but it may not be comfy. So hone in on the comfy and you'll do fine. And one last thing, everybody is going to tell you what they think is the " greatest " and they are right... the bed they got is the best for them. You may agree or disagree depending on what you choose. But choose what YOU and your wife like.. simply said you have to make your own decision. In my store we have about 150 beds, I'll take some pixs so you see. On the west coast we are the premier company. It took me 13 years to be able to get into this place. On the eastcoast there is Sleepy's, and on the westcoast we are just as big but with less stores. In order to be in the top 10% a single salesperson has to sell 1.3 million per years minimum. Most stores don't do that much. The only advice I can give you is, if you looking for a bed today, make sure it has memory foam or latex. These are the only 2 foams that help make the bed not breakdown. And lastly ( because most salespeople don't know this ) after you get your bed make sure to rotate it head to foot ( 180 degrees ) every 2 weeks for the first 2 months. This allows the bed to break in evenly and stop some of the " hammocking ". Have fun and if there are any more questions I'm always here..
Enjoy
