| gsimpson's Full Review: Tempur-Pedic Swedish Mattress |
I purchased this mattress 8 months ago. At no stage during that time could I claim to have had a wonderful sleep. On overage I wake every couple of hours and generally wake up with very sore neck and shoulders. I sleep on my side and find the Tempur marginally more comfortable than sleeping on concrete.
I have persisted with the hope, that I may adjust to the mattress, but there has been no improvement. I notice that in the US there seems to be a 90 day money back guarantee - unfortunately this is not the case in Australia. I paid more than $3000 Australian for Queen size deluxe (20cm) version of this overrated mattress.
I had better sleep on the 5 year old futon I had previously - a bargain for $200.
I would warn people to be very cautious before they consider purchasing this mattress. I believe the only thing it succeeds in is marketing - I fell for it!
