I prefer firm mattresses....and those tempurpedic things just feel weird. Plus doesn't it just soak up your sweat like a sponge? It looks like a giant foam petri dish.

wtf is a bob-o-pedic? Bob Barker has a new brand out?

a bob-o-pedic is bob's discount furniture's version of tempur-pedic. Bob's is a New England chain that sells sh!t furniture for cheap.
 
i've been sleeping on my full size tempurpedic for more than 5 years now. before that a BJ's matress that died after about a year. i don't think i can ever go back to a regular mattress. 🙂

Well I don't have a temperpedic, but I don't go to bed sweaty.....

I did hear they tend to get hot, since they sort of wrap around you.

Which would definately not work for me.

it's all hype and advertisements. i dont see whats so special about it, i dont like it one bit, it's way tooooo soft for my likings. when u sit on it, it when almost completely flat, and worst of all, when u sleep on it, it sucks ur rare down.

i dont know what u call those soft like material that made the bed, but i've seem it being used on on shipping boxes to protect the item from damage, yea, something close to that material i describe.

tempur pedic = overrated. what a scam.


I certainly wouldn't invest in anything that sucks my rare down.

This.
 
I have a Simmons (or was it Sealy) version of temperedic. I like it at times and other times i dont. And i agree sex can be a chore on these things.
 
I tried it out, after not even a night with it I returned it. My biggest issue, I had to wake up everytime I want to turn over cause I would sink it to it and couldn't just roll over. I had to literally pick myself and flip over.

If felt great just laying there though, but no way was it worth what I had to go through

But Bob's such an honest nice lookin guy...you gotta trust him.
 
I didn't like it either, despite convincing myself I should have a memory foam mattress. I have been very pleased with the self adjusting air bed I purchased that has a memory foam topper. Very comfortable.
