buying mattress: advice req'd (please!)
Hi Everyone,
We need to buy a new mattress. I haven't a clue where to go, what's a good price (I am uber-thrifty though so price matters). Also, which type of mattress to buy. We're in BC so the big names appear to be The Brick, Sleep Country, the Bay, Sears. I've probably missed some!
- What brand, model, do you like or recommend?
- What features are important, and not so important?
- What the heck does all this stuff mean: tight top, pillow top, pocket coils, etc. etc.
- I'm wondering if mattresses tend to go on sale at certain times of the year, too.
If anyone knows anything, esp if you have learned through your (happy or unhappy) purchases, please pipe up. I'm all ears! :-)
Thanks in advance for reading,
