Saatva.com. No sagging after 4 years. Have it in all my bedrooms. Great reviews and right in your price range.

We are also Sealy posturpedic fans. Sounds like you found a perfect mattress with a Beautyrest.
If it was 2-3 years ago, they've probably discontinued the model. Still I wish you could remember the name.
I wasn't planning to try Sears in Ocala, but your comments are very positive!

Is it very firm? We are looking for a firm but comfy mattress.
Saatva gets good reviews on "Sleep like the dead".

Sleep like the dead is a little scary don’t you think. I hope that’s not really their slogan. We did try Saatva and found it comfortable but not as firm as one of us would like.

I thought it was a funny name for a website. They have good information available.
asianthree, thanks for the info on Saatva. That rules out the mattress.
I'm not comfortable with buying online anyway even though you save money that way. I need to try the mattress.
I'm looking for a very firm yet comfy mattress. I need direction as to where to shop.
Because we're migratory humanoids, we've ruled out a sleep number as too pricey.

Don't you mean "migratory humanoid"

I think that the only way to get a really good mattress is to steal it from a hotel.

I have never done anything like that before and I am pretty sure I would need help.

It isn't sleep like the dead is steal the bed from the dead. We bought a Tempur Pedic Mattress and Box Spring 15 years ago. The warranty is 20 years and this bed is going to pass that many years easily. We are spoiled, so perfect, we are in agreement that we paid $2600 that long ago because Mrs Nucky was going to kill me for spending that much on a bed, that's why she remembers. When we were buying the cheap beds they only lasted a couple of years.

This bed which you can take for a trial run has been returned by 3 different couples who had them delivered for a test at their homes. To soft, to much pillow top, I think it was too much money because they squeak when they walk. Whatever, I wouldn't buy anything but a Tempur Pedic. Same bed today has to be $4000 I would think. Good Luck.

Did you, or have you ever, slept in a bed with a migratory humanoid?

Inquiring minds and all that.........

We have had a waveless water bed, sleep number, posturepedic etc. We sailed on the Royal Princess Cruise ship in 2015 and the Coral Princess in 2016 and slept so well on their custom made bed we didn't want to get up. Finally they started selling them and early this year we bought one. Free delivery included. We opted for the pillow top. Now you can spend $1000 and never sleep or you can get one of these for about $2000. How much is too much for a piece of furniture you spend 1/3 of your day on? This is the best money we can remember spending. Copy and paste web address in your browser.
