My wife has been going on and on about these Tempur-Pedic mattresses, you know, the memory foam stuff? She just got a sample piece in the mail, along with a video. Does anyone have one of these things? Are they any good? How expensive are they?

I want one. I HAD a pillow (well, a Costco knock-off one) and loved it, but had to give it up after my cat discovered it. Apparently it feels very good to cats to sink their claws into, and he fell in love with it. After witnessing him humping my pillow, I just gave it to him. Nasty cat.

Were you sleeping at the time?

Don't get the expensive complete Tempur-Pedic mattress. There are tons of horror stories about them. Instead, go to Costco and get the approx. $100 "Elite Memory Foam Mattress Topper". As long as your existing regular bed is still good, it's like owning a Tempur-Pedic for 1/20th the cost, and most people say it's actually even better.
There are common complaints against full Tempur-Pedic mattresses being too soft and of deforming. "Horror story" may be a little strong, but when you shell out $2k for a fancy mattress and it ends up being worse than your old $500 regular mattress, that's not a pleasant thing.Originally posted by: hoyaguru
You guys keep mentioning "horror stories" about these mattresses, what horror stories are you referring to? Do they spontaneously burst into flames or something?
