I ended up giving it to the person who was the most polite and gracious in their request. Her husband picked it up that night, a hard working house painter who offered to paint a room for us for free to say thank you. (We declined, but kept his phone number in case we ever need painting again.)

Thanks. I will keep OfferUp in mind......"one man's junk, is another man's treasure"......

The other thing I like is for $39 they will take away my big, heavy, king size Tempurpedic from my upstairs.....

I passed by the trial period, so that should answer a good portion of your question.

I came from another memory foam mattress (Strobel Technologies - Supple-Pedic) I had close to 15 years, purchased online as memory foam was just hitting the market. It's why I chose online again. My wife and I used to call it a butter bed, as we would just feel like we melted into it. But I began to sweat a lot, and was feeling achy in the mornings, and after years of stupidity finally figured it was the mattress.

The Loom & Leaf is quite a difference. I got the relaxed firm. When I first slept on it, I was thinking it was too firm for my liking. It was, but it wasn't. I just couldn't place the feel, as it's not like a Tempurpedic or other foam mattress a trialed for those 30 minutes in a store. It doesn't swallow you up, and feels somewhat like a spring mattress, but it doesn't. I know, confusing. But I love it because I have had months of excellent sleeps in it. It supports well. And I sleep on my stomach, side, & back, and have yet to feel one position not feeling right. It was delivered (not in a box) so there was no off-gassing like those boxed ones that need to air out. The people who came set it up promptly.

Remember, I'm just one person, so please don't solely rely on me. But I do love it.

We've had our Sleep # bed for 8yrs now. I still say about 2-3x a week "I love this bed" when going to sleep. We got the model 2nd from top, the dif with top model at that time was just a thick pillow top. If I recall accurately it cost us just under $3k. My hub has said probably 100x it's the best $3k we ever spent. I use a very thick mattress pad with it. We have not had any issues at all, we will buy another when time comes. We got the Olympic queen size, it's just perfect for us, I think 6-8" wider than reg queen. Only complaint is that it's harder to find bed linens.

Count me in as a big fan of the Sleep Number bed. My wife and I could never agree on a mattress we liked. She liked a really firm bed, I liked something softer. Funny enough, after getting the sleep number, it turns out I actually like a firmer bed and she likes a softer bed. I do change my settings from time to time depending on how I'm feeling.
