King 12" 5.3LB Density Viscoelastic Memory Foam Mattress


12" del king ther w/5" MF and Dual airflow4

We ordered this mattress from Sleepshop and it came exactly on the day indicated in excellent condition. Remember you have to be there to sign for it. We were prepared to send it back without opening if there was any damage as this is the only way Sleepshop will replace it without additonal costs if there is a problem. Once it is decompressed and you want to send it back you have to pay the shipping (it weighs 98 lbs) and a 20% restocking fee!! It was fine so we took it in the house unwrapped it and let it regain its shape.



We have been sleeping on the bed for a month now and like it very much. Don't use a mattress pad as it makes it hard for the memory foam to heat up and conform to your shape. It took me about a week to get used to sleeping on the bed before it felt comfortable. The 12" w/ 5" of memory foam is considered a plush bed for side sleepers. The 10"/3" of MF is considered firm and for back sleepers keep this in mind when buying. If you want a firm bed don't get the 12". I got this information by calling Sleepshop. I found them a bit reticent to give me much information. In fact I felt like I had to pry it out of the person. They were not volunteerng anything that's for sure. Consequently read the warantee information and the refund information carefully.



The reason I am rating this mattress as a 4 instead of 5 stars is the smell. It has a very strong chemical smell. It's almost gone now but has taken a month and I have twice now stripped the bed sprayed it with Fabreeze and left it under a fan with the windows open to help dissapate the smell. I will probably need to do this one or two more times to get rid of the smell completely. So if you are sensative to such things don't get this mattress as it will probably bother you.



Also I paid $599 for it in Feb 07 and now I see it is listed at $750 here on Amazon. That's too much especially as you have to deal with the smell. Evidently they have sales so I'd wait for one.More detail ...
