However, looking at the tag when it was delivered today, I saw that there's even less latex percentage wise. Consumer Reports won't even rate mattresses because all the different companies create their own "recipe." You can't compare apples to apples. Therefore, if any salesperson tells you it's 100% latex, check the label. But you know what? At this point, I don't care anymore. I just hope it's comfortable enough and doesn't have a depression in it after two days. We'll see. It's supposed to have a 30 year garantee but who knows where the company will be then?
The Felicity mattress was delivered today by the same cheerful guys who delivered the Tranquility. They looked at the hilly mattress and said, "Oh, you've got a mountain in the middle, hunh?" He told us that they would be taking the mattress back to where it was made in Waipahu and find out who made it. Apparently the name of the person who made it is in the mattress. Interesting.
So we've got a new mattress... again. It seems like it's almost half the height of the other mattress and I'm feeling like the princess looking for the pea. Luckily, I've got a prince already sound asleep on the bed right now. But then again, he could sleep on the stone floor of a castle just as peacefully. I'm looking for a happy ending here.
I hope your new mattress works out and you enjoy years of peaceful slumber on it! I like your quilt too!
ReplyDeleteGood night, Princess Kay. LOL
ReplyDeleteSleep well.
Whew! I hope this one works for you. Where did the rest of the bed stuff go...it looks like you are on the floor, again. Nice that you see your husband as a prince, even after all these years!!
ReplyDeletethis is too funny, waiting for the next report...at least you didn't marry a frog. you could be sleeping in the lily pond. lol!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are sleeping wonderfully on your second (or third or fourth) mattress! Now if I could have you come over here and tell me what is the matter with my mattress....One nice thing is that you have definitely found a company who listens and respects the customer!
ReplyDeleteAww, love that "sleeping prince" statement LOL.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! We're looking down the barrel of a new mattress purchase too, and after a few excursions to "sales events", the prices still have me feeling queasy. But a good night's sleep is everything.
I LOVE that bedspread btw!
I guess I missed the post about getting rid of the Tranquility mattress, although I knew you were concerned about the indentations that remained. I hope you like this new one.
ReplyDeleteDo you always sleep on the floor? It makes getting into bed easy, but I would find it a tad tricky to get out. I don't get up as easily as I get down.
Lin, I loved your comment! LOL. Frog and Lily pond, indeed!
ReplyDeleteKay, good luck with the new mattress. Everyone deserves a good night's sleep.

ReplyDeleteJim can sleep on anything. He takes a nap on weekends down in the basement on an old broken in coach!
My mattress that we bought last August has a 25 year warranty. Ha Ha, like you said not sure if the store will even be around in 25 years.
Nothing's perfect I guess, we made the best decision with what info that we had at the time.
Enjoy your new bed ...!!!!
When my lung collapsed twice, my wife visited me one day in the hospital and on her way home she stopped at Walmart and paid about $150.00 for a 4 inch thick piece of foam which is wonderful to sleep on. It does go down where your body parts are but when you move for a minute or two, it pops back up. I think it was the best thing I got when I got home. Besides extra care of course.
ReplyDeleteLet us all hope this is the mattress you guys wanted.
You know you are an example to us! We had the same issue 3 months into a new mattress 3.5yrs ago and never did anything about it! And yes the mountain range in the middle is still there, why do they do this?
ReplyDeleteGood luck with this one
Good luck with this one. Hopefully, you will both be sleeping peacefully ever after.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your new mattress Kay. I didn't realize just how important they were until my back started acting up after buying a new one. Here's to many good night sleeps for you and your Prince on your new bed :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I do hope it works out this time, too, and that long and peaceful sleep will be yours! Great quilt! Love the colors!
ReplyDeleteSo, sleep well, my friend! And lovely dreams as well!

Kay, I hope this mattress is perfect! By the way stop over at my blog-there is an award awaiting you!
ReplyDeleteSleep well, Princess!

Good grief! What a time you've had with the saga of your bed. Hope this is the last chapter and it's a happy ending.
ReplyDeleteFollowed your link over from Sherri's site. I've had some bad luck with mattresses too. You are right about the warranties, who knows if the company will even be in business five years from now. Good luck, hope it holds up well.
