ATOT I need a bed....

GoingUp

Lifer
It's time that I bought a proper boxspring and mattress.

I am looking for a queen sized bed. What are some recommendations that you have for mattresses and box springs? I am looking to spend around $500.
 
go to the mattress store and try them out

different people like different mattresses, this is like asking someone to choose some shoes for you
 
I got a queen-sized pillowtop + boxspring for $450 at BJs. I don't know if it was a good price, but if it wasn't it was worth every penny not having to deal with a class of people that may well be lower on the evolutionary chain than the likes of personal injury lawyers, used car salesmen and loan officers - mattress salesmen.
 
I got my Full size pillow-top mattress+boxspring+frame for $550 delivered from Sleepys. Go try them at sleepys..... no one can tell u which matress is good for u......
 
Actually, 1-800-Mattress typically has a number of good deals. Local showrooms in most areas. Be willing to negotiate for price as well; dependent upon which set you find, often an additional $100 to $300+ can be discounted, as the markup in bedding is quite high.

We bought this bed two years, the best $339 I ever spent!

There is a costco right down the street from me! Thanks rossman!

Edit: Can I buy it in the store for that price? Or do I have to order it online. Im moving into my apartment in about a week and I need a bed!

Edit2: Is it 499 or 399?

Yes you can buy at CostCo B&M (that's what we did) and it should be $499 - $100 coupon = $399.

Perfect! I think we'll buy one too, thanks Ross! 🙂 (does CostCo deliver? and what is B&M again?)

Rossman is the best! B&M means brick and mortar... its the actual store.

Confirmed.

We bought the King size of the Sealy Posturpedic Mira Loma II at Costco about a year ago and it's been great. It's not a pillowtop, so we were planning on getting one of the eggshell foam toppers for it, but it's so comfortable without it that we haven't bothered.

are those space foam mattresses worth looking into, or are they just crap?

edit: to actually answe the question you asked 😀 ... they are worth looking into if you have bad back or wake up sore .. they definitely aren't crap, but I don't think I'd say they were better than a quality spring mattress. Different, but not better.
/edit

Not worth what you'd pay retail, and in all honesty (imo) the price of that costco one you are looking at is so close to a DIY foam bed that you should just go with costco unless you are really hyped on the foam or have a bad back.

You might check with your local Costco B&M. The stuff on Costco.com always includes shipping in the price. I'm almost certain that I bought my queen-sized last year for $399 without the coupon.

It was worth every cent even if I spent $499.

BTW, some Costco B&Ms will deliver and some won't. The one in Oxnard wanted $40 per item. I had to pick up a 32" TV at Best Buy, and they wanted me to pay for delivery too so I rented a van from Budget Truck Rental ($19.95 rental + $0.77 per mile). It was 5 miles round trip.

Of course, hauling the bed and 180lbs worth of TV up two stairs kind of sucked... but it also convinced me that I am the strongest man in the world. 😀

Happy to hear it.

It's a great bed at an amazing price. CostCo only does this once a year around January.
