My BIB did sleep "hot" the first month or so but I guess I'm used to it now. I really, really, like it.
Same with our Sleep Innovations bedlove it
We went out intending to buy a memory foam mattress but bought a natural latex mattress because we thought it was more comfortable. We have had it about 3 months and love it.
I've had my BIB for several months now and still love it. Never want to get out of bed in the morning. I don't remember it ever sleeping hot.
I side sleep and love the latex. I have never slept in a memory foam mattress but I have seen some complaints with sexy time in that it may be kind of hard to move to different positions due to the nature of the memory foam. Obviously they are popular so it must not be an issue. Go out to the bed stores and try them out (not the sexy time part). Almost everyone will let you exchange them - the better return policies are 90 days with no restocking fee - sometimes cash or just credit for another bed they carry (so good if the store has lots of of choices).'culdeus said:
There's a link recently in this thread about sexy time on various types of mattresses. Memory foam was reported to be bad for changing positions, but good for getting traction.
It does sleep a little hot but not too bad.
You guys are doing it wrong.
haha you and I aren't in the same ballpark when it comes to budget on this one. i'm getting this: metal frame . i don't like squeaky wood, and this is the only metal platform i can afford that isn't just a flimsy frame.
Yeah it was pricey, and I had to wait a helluva long time for delivery. I think if you buy stuff off of Amazon (Amazon redirected me to a 3rd party website to place my order) you end up rolling the dice with how long it will take to get delivered. Also not an easy job for 1 person to put together the pieces weighed quite a bit.
So, I am close to pulling the trigger on one of these. I have a couple questions:1. What is the big difference between the 10" and 12"?
Same question here. Was looking to order either the 10 or 12 today and just throw on the box spring/bed fram I already have. Which is better?
I got the 12, still happy, best sleep I have ever had.
I was wondering the same thing about a month ago. I pm'd Dawgpound but never got a response. I emailed Sleep Innovations directly and the response I got is that the 10" is a bit softer due to having the thicker top foam layer. So the way it was presented to me via email is that if you want a slightly softer feel, get the 10", if you want the firmness, get the 12".
lots of reviews say it is too firm. I hate firm mattresses and would not try this one if I thought there was even a small chance of firmness in any model.will try out a pacbamboo cali king first. If that sucks for some reason I'll consider other options.
Called BIAB today to begin the refund process...relatively painless, no questions asked. All I need to do is donate the mattress to a non-profit and send them the receipt. We are about a week shy of 120 day trial period.Bed feels fine to me, but my wife continues to have back pain. having difficulty getting past the firmness issue - bed simply does not seem to provide the cushiony support she thinks she needs, so the search continues. I think we will be going with the more expensive tempurpedic.
You might want to check out a latex bed also.
Comforpedic
Not a problem. Her name was Takiya. So are you saying that if I'm looking for a more semi-firm instead of firm feel that the 10" is the way to go? Is there any other down side to the 10" vs the 12" to consider?
Ok. She is new to the company. Basically whatever site you go to should give you the foam breakdown. The majority of the foam is going to be base foam, and there will either be another layer or two. Some mattresses have a convolute layer, like an egg crate, that promotes breathing in the mattress for coolness. But the top layer is going to be memory foam, so if you have a 10" with 7" of base foam and 3" of memory foam, it will be softer than a 12" mattress with 10" of base foam and 2" memory foam. It's all about the memory foam thickness. Good luck man. If you have any other questions, I promise I'll answer your PM.
Awesome.Just a question PatriotJohn: We don't ship direct to the customer for Amazon; we ship to Amazon's warehouse first and they ship to you. How did the packaging hold up when it got to your house? Was it beat to crap or was it okay?
NJ: Box was in fantastic shape. It appeared to originate from their warehouse in Indiana, and got to Dayton in under 36 hours....impressive! Neighbor was so impressed she ordered a mattress for her boyfriend and it arrived today in flawless condition as well. Thanks!
