Need to buy a king-size mattress. What should I look into?

Only mattresses I've ever bought were cheap queen-sets from Sam's Club that I covered in egg-crating for more cushion in college.

I understand there's all different types of Tempur-pedic, Sleep Number, Mattress Mac such like out there, so tell me what I should be looking for.

TIA.

They advertise this like hell on facebook. It's a new company, right? I don't know if I'd go to bat for them until they've been time-tested.

We've had a Casper for more than a year. It's great. I think there's a guarantee where you can return it for a full refund within 100 days of buying the mattress.

There has to be enough OT mattress threads to actually make a mattress.

I bought a king size Lucid 10" memory foam mattress off of Wayfair for around $350...no complaints at all.

That's how most mattress places are though. I get 365 days with my mattress.

We just bought a king mattress from Tuft & Needle to replace one lost in the flood. It's very similar to the Casper, but around $200 cheaper with a 100 night free trial. We've been sleeping on it for a couple weeks and have liked it.

I love our sleep number. The ability to have 2 firmness levels and the knowledge that it won't ever sag like a spring or foam mattress helps. You do pay a premium though, but it will last for a long, long time under warranty.

Wife and I got a Purple a few weeks ago and we love it. It's extremely comfortable. My back issues have went away. I fall asleep faster.

Best way to explain it is soft and supportive. You really don't feel pressure points.

Plus the youtube commercial is funny, as well as the emails they send you during the purchasing process.

Anyway, we like ours a lot.

Just purchased a Sealey Temperpedic 12" with adjustable head & foot.

Absolutely the best purchase I've made ever.

Just bought 3 Tuft & Needle mattresses (one for each of my kids rooms). They had great reviews on Consumer Reports, were really affordable and so far, seem to be good. Of course, when you are between 80 and 140 pounds...it doesn't take much of a mattress to sleep soundly.
