ive heard those tempur beds are badass.. and they really comfortable.. but for 3000-4000 i could never see myself spending that much for a matress... unless i had millions of dollars.. which i dont

[BobBong]

That's a LOT of money to spend on your sleep.. personally, i wouldn't spend that much on a matress.. a few hundred?.. sure.

But then it depends on how much you value your sleep , your back and your money.

If you've got the money to spend on a 3000$ matress.. and still send your kids to school..

yea! go for it!

I couldn't put out that kind of cash for a matress. They sound great, but Damn! I paid about $450 for mine, and I sleep just fine, man. But, if you got money to spend, and really want to make you woman happy...do it.

Otherwise, I'd settle for lesser mattress that will get the job done well enough.

Peace,

I say go for it..

Sleep is a valuable thing, and I would buy some right now if I could..

I would not spend that much on a matress. To me thats insane. I bought a Serta for less than half of that and I love it. You never have to flip it and its the best matress I have ever slept on in my life.

[BizzleLuvin]

thats a tough question...but ive narrowed it down to two words:
MATTRESS PAD. buy a mid-quality matress and just buy an expensive matress pad. you can buy a tepur-pedic matress pad for a twin-size bed for about $200

[napolitana869]

I have back problems and got a 3 inch mattress pad from tempur-pedic and i can honestly tell you that if i had the money, I would buy the full mattress. If you don't want to spend the money for the mattress I would go for the pad at least, even though it's still expensive. When my boyfriend was looking for his new bed the woman at the mattress store said not to go with a pillow top one because the top wears down pretty fast and its not worth the extra money. I hope this helps!

Sleep is an important thing, and goodness knows we spend a third of our lives in bed if you tally it up. But that's a mighty expensive mattress. Your finances should probably be what makes the decision for you. Read on if you want to hear a candid review from a memory foam bed-owner.

We bought one of those Tempurpedic beds nearly two years ago, and it's good and comfortable and all, but I still feel sick when I think about the amount of money we spent on that thing. Fancy foam rubber simply ought not to cost that much, and I truly prefer the way a firm innerspring mattress feels anyway.

One of the things they don't tell you about that memory foam stuff is that, over time, it does mash down and doesn't always spring back in the same way it's advertised as doing. You do eventually get slight body impressions in it, no matter what the manufacturers say, and that's especially true on my husband's side of the bed. He's a tall and very solid, sturdy guy, and I can't help but wonder if a regular mattress might withstand his weight better.

Those beds are heavy, they're hard to move, and they cost an arm and a leg. They also have almost no bounce, which is good if you don't want to feel the bed move when your spouse gets up early in the morning. But (I'm not sure how to put this delicately) there are times in married people's beds when a little bounce-backability is nice, if you know what I mean. So consider, too, that for the next ten years or however long you might keep the thing, it also provides a different foundation upon which to have sex--one where you can't rely on the bounce-back capabilities of an innerspring mattress to help with some of the movement.

They are comfortable and supportive, no doubt about that. And they're warm, which is nice in the wintertime. But if I had it to do over again? I'd definitely get a regular bed and spend that other money on something I could enjoy while I was conscious. Let us know whether this helps persuade her. I wish someone had told me the same thing before we bought the one we have.

are you fucking serious???? 3-4k? those goddamned commericals always say that they're about the same goddamned price as a conventional matress.... 10X AS MUCH MONEY AND ABOUT THE SAME PRICE ARE WAY DIFFRENT!....

as for your question, unless you're rich, i dont' see any way, at all of justifying that much money for a mattress.... when you're mattress payments equal your car payments in length and ammount of money to a payment, you're spending way too much to sleep on... lol..
