400 bucks is a good deal....unless you bought a twin.

Temperpedic is gross. I hate that sinking in feeling. And I'm not even fat like most outposters so I can't imagine what it's like if you're a real marine mammal.

No, tempurpedic is quality. But the knock offs can be quality, too.

Tempurpedic is for people who do not have sex in their bed.

Tempurpedic is overpriced.

The memory foam bed concept is not overrated. Yes there are some low quality knockoffs out there, and some perfectly excellent quality versions too.

As for sporting on a memory foam mattress - it's different - some things are better than, some not as good as on a traditional mattress. Who limits their sporting to the bed all the time anyway?

The year and a half or close to 2 years I've been sleeping on memory foam have been the best sleep I've had for 10 years before it. My back is healthier than ever and I've had a number of age and body misuse related aches and pains heal up and stop bothering as a result of it.

The reason people say sex is worse on a Temperpedic is because of the sink factor in the missionary position. If you are experimental, you can find some other positions where its better to not have the sink factor. I can think of examples, but wont give the details. nuff said

My wife wanted one, too, but there was no way I was going to pay $2000+ for an adjustable air mattress.
