| speedemon21's Full Review: Tempur-Pedic Swedish Mattress |
We have had a TempurPedic Celebrity King bed for just about a week now and I can say that since my nice comfy bed left and this obnoxious beast invaded my bedroom I have not slept. My husband wanted to replace the old bed because he woke up stiff every morning. So, we went to a local retailer and checked out beds. We went back and forth between this bed and a soft side water bed. After much deliberation, we painfully decided on this one. I say painfully because it cost $4100 plus tax! I, like everyone else heard good things about this bed. I checked out the website and got the free sample and all that stuff. So, it was not like this was a blind purchase. I asked the sales girl if any had ever been returned. She said no so I figured I was gold, right? WRONG! The bed arrived and I was so excited. I could not wait to sleep on it that night. The first thing was that the wrong foundation was delivered. We ordered the low and we received the high. So, for me being 5'3" I have to literally climb into this thing. It is very high. Also, be prepared for the nasty smell of the mattress. It stunk up the whole bedroom and a week later it still lingers. They say regular sheets fit on it too, but my King sheet set looks like a double set on this bed. Anyway, from the first night I lay on it I wanted to cry. One, from pain, and one from being robbed! It was, and still is horrible. For me the material does not give. It is like sleeping on cement. It took me forever to finally fall asleep. When I woke I was in such pain, (back) that I could not move. The body heat thing is not an issue for me but it is for my husband. I like to read in bed and you cannot do that on this bed. My husband and I like to watch TV once in a while also. Nope forget about that. Some days I need to take a little midday nap. Ain't happening on this thing. I dread going to bed at night, which has never ever been an issue, because I know of the uncomfortable hours that lay ahead of me. I am a side sleeper and I guess it is not made for that. But I am not about to sleep on my back either. It truly is horrible, and a horrible ripoff! We are in our early thirties, and I work out everyday. I should not be feeling like this when I wake up. As I type this my back still hurts and I got up three hours ago! I am going to the store today to see about an exchange and a refund. Until this thing goes I will sleep on the futon in our den. STAY AWAY!
