you should diy a foam mattress using your own custom combination of foams

 

Wait. 

You can do that? 

A friend wanted a new couch. He sourced the foam by asking people to send off for free samples from one of the big guys.

His couch is amazing.

**BRENT**

yup

Got a new new bed to hope in.

 

I purchased a Leesa full, it has the same 100 days policy and 10 year warranty with using a code for $100 off. $690 for a full mattress with shipping. It seems to be competing with the Casper.

I put off buying my new mattress until after the holidays.  I guess it is good since I don't need a king size bed anymore (I did already buy a king sized frame already though).  Now I am wondering if it is worth getting a full size instead of queen when I get around to it.  I do have a lot of queen size sheets though.  Damn, I wish I had a new bed. 

Queen is the minimum even though you're not a large person. Full size is not an adult option.

What Al said.

**BRENT**

I would rather have paid the $100 extra for the queen myself, it just would not fit my bedroom and frame I already have and I'm cheap enough currently to just deal with that. I will upgrade to the queen as soon as possible when I find a new living arrangement.

Ok maybe I'll stick with a queen.

...Full size is not an adult option.

 

I am stuck in a twin xl, room is too small 

I would go with a king myself, mostly because I would sleep solo on the diagonal

At least someone agrees that a king would be a rational choice

King is the only way to go for me as well.

Here's another. As long as the room proportionally supports it the only question is King or Cal King.

California King is really what I need but I fucked up both times and got the regular.

^^^This!

... or San Francisco King?

I only have a queen, as that is what my bedroom in Hoboken could support without completely blocking the hallway leading to the living room.  If I was to buy again, I'd go king or california king, but not worth changing now.

 

Ooh, San Francisco king looks nice!

A San Fransisco Queen is something else entirely, right Steve?

Colin went with a Chelsea queen

Al Jefferson bed is what it's all about

 

We have a California king which provides plenty of room even though I am forced to spend many a night on the couch due to my "inappropriate acerbic humor". 

 

There are many  more sheet and duvet options for king and California king, never heard of the San Francisco King.

Went and tried a Casper today in their ridiculous LA showroom. It was pretty nice, but Jackie was not impressed.

 

We went to a Sit and Sleep, and I walked in there pretty hostile, based on what I know about mattress salespeeps. Tried an Aireloom and was intrigued, then got on a Tempur-pedic Contour Rhapsody Breeze...

 

Probably pulling the trigger on the Tempur-pedic tomorrow. Jackie thinks it's a little "goopy," but I love the support.

 

And the cooling layer is cooling.

Curious what firmness levels you end up with. Their pillows too?
