Tempur-pedic foam is entirely different than all the knock-offs. I have a King sized Tempur-pedic Deluxe that was roughly $4000 after taxes, box springs, frame, etc.

Before I got the Tempur-pedic, I had a high quality mattress/box spring combo with a 3" foam topper. I would not enjoy going back to a mattress/topper setup, and I could not sleep if I had to go back to a plain mattress setup.

I have one of the novaforms from Costco. I love it.
I used to have back pains from my old mattress, and with the Novaform, I've yet to have one. We bought the mattress about a year and a half ago (or 2 years ago..).

Mine came straight from the factory in IN and I had it within 4 days of ordering online (went with the King size).

Costco was kind enough to then ship one from their warehouse in WA. When the second one showed up, I called and told them the mistake. They told me to keep it. So I did. My in-laws like theirs a lot.

I was thinking of getting the Novaform bed from Costco, probably a queen or king (not sure yet but it's unimportant I suppose).

I have back aches and neck aches, and I was hoping this would cure this. Also, I never really get a good nights' sleep.. always tired after I wake up :(

Much obliged for any help.

I have the one from Costco and I love it. SOOOOOOO much more comfy than just the regular mattress. I say go for it. If you don't like it, Costco will take it back. PM me if you have any specific questions about it

I bought one of the expensive temerpedics because my low back pain made it impossible to stay in bed over 6 hours.

Now that I have it, Thats still about the max that I can stay in bed.
So I don't think it made a major difference for me.

In regards to warrenty(someone asked) i think it was 20 years use.

My wife andI got one about 3 years ago, we both had bad backs and figured it was worth a try. It fixed her back almost immediately, she has practically no back pain any more. It made my back pain worse than ever. So, give it a try, if your back hurts, send it back.
