We've thought about writing a book on this - we've had 6 mattresses in 10 years. Got a regular, flat-top king mattress (not comfortable, too hard); Tempurpedic (no side support, hotter than ***, lumpy); traded that in for a Sterns & Foster (fabulous - should have kept it, the kids got it); Comfortaire Air Bed (continually leaked, never worked right, couldn't adjust it); Foam mattress (too soft, again no side support to sit on it); Sleep Number (HATED this one; never could get it right, the foam piece in the middle was lumpy/uncomfortable). Now we have a REALLY nice bed (but expensive) -Beautyrest Black Natasha Luxury Plush Pillow Top King-size Mattress Set - first time in years I haven't had a sore back when I wake up. It's pricey - but worth it. A friend bought a Casper, loved it - I didn't get that far because I was concerned about returning a bed bought online. However, Mattress Stores? Wow, I could go into great (rip-off) detail, they wouldn't sell my wife a mattress unless "I was with her to make the decision", blah blah blah. The mark-up is phenomenal, as well. Good luck!
