Costco's NovaForm Mattress

[Reckoner]

Do any of you have one of these? I'm seriously eyeing this one as a replacement for my traditional mattress. Tempurpedic's too expensive, and this looks like a good substitute.

..I saw it out there. Bring help if your going to pick it up your self. It's heavy as h@ll. Tried lifting the box and could hardly budge it. I have the NovaForm matress top liner and it's great so this must be really good.

mmm i will consider that when i move out of my parents place and get a real job.

I like it pretty well so far. A little on the firm side for me, but the wife likes it. If I am not satisfied in year or so, no worries, I bought it at Costco.

oh my f'ing god, you weak little nerdling.

i bought one and lifted it myself down from the stack, onto the cart, and into my car. and it was really not that heavy. they weigh about 100 pounds, give or take. and they have handles and wheels, for christ sake. also, i am not in shape and have generally been known as being a skinny dork. i've never worked out or played adult sports. so i can only imagine what your arms must look like.

oh yeah, i really like mine. it wasn't too hot like i was worried about.

 

[Reckoner]

Sounds good, think i'll go and pick this up soon

He was referring to the queen size, not the twin size.

I got the queen and I can lift it. I couldn't lift it up three flights of stairs by myself though... So its big but it also has rollers on the bottom which come in handy.

# 3" top layer of Premium Memory Foam
# 9" high density conventional foam base

Considering the foam will breakdown, I'm skeptical to how long this will last. My memory foam toppers and pillow have been good for two years, and I'd consider a conventional mattress with a memory foam topper instead.

i tried the foam liner a while ago but didnt like it. it seemed to act like an insulator, so the part of my body resting on the foam was much hotter than my usual foam egg-crate liner.

I bougt the queen size last week (my costco only has a cal king and queen) and the box still says a hundred lbs. The only reason I had trouble getting it from my car into my room was because of my recent motorcycle accident.

Otherwise, when I bought it during my lunch hour, my coworker just picked it up and shoved it on the cart.

He did have a football scholorship to some mormon college and is like 6'4 220 though. But still!

I like it. It is much firmer then I thought it would be considering all the pictures of hand shaped impressions and such. Was actually a little too firm for the GF and I spent plenty of time sitting up with a laptop without sinking down like I was afraid of too.

EDIT: I wsih it came in a nifty crate instead of a cardboard box though. Would have been a great storage addition to the garage with the wheels at the bottom.

..you won't have to worry about anybody stealing it.

The other one I was looking at is the Sealy Posturepedic... choices, choices

 

[Kaido]

Yeah my wife and I looked at a King-sized Temperpedic - the one on display was a pillow top memory foam with massage and hospital-style bed raising for reading...they only wanted six large for it

I tried one of those novaform pillows, and I hated it. I am just an old-fashioned dude!
