Can anyone recommend a good mattress store?

Costco or Amazon.

Not a store, but this NYT best mattress article might help.

We have a foam mattress and a hybrid mattress, both from the "worth considering" category, that we are happy with.

Costco. Avoid the chain mattress stores. Just another layer of cost to pay a salesperson.

Or find a hotel bed you like and buy online. Commercial quality will last longer

Bob, I have one for sale, like new, might be worth a try and cheaper than new as the new ones are costly.

No, I can't recommend a good store but I highly recommend the following website to help you determine which mattress you should buy.

We have used The Original Mattress Factory on numerous occasions over the years and have had great success with their mattresses, our children also buy theirs from them. They truly have no middlemen involved, all direct company owned stores.

It is almost impossible to compare mattresses for quality and price. The mattress companies deliberately make their products confusing and difficult to compare even within their own product line. For example, last year I tried to buy the latest Tempurpedic mattress and found that they don't assign a model number to every mattress. I asked the guy at the Tempurpedic store in Brownwood, how do I know I will be getting their latest product, when a mattress on Amazon is cheaper and has the exact same name? His answer was "you don't". I would never buy a mattress from a retail store. I would buy it online from Costco or Amazon after doing as much research as I could.

We had a sleep number for many years (over 10) which I really liked as I could set my side to 'rock' (I like a very firm mattress) and my wife could set her side to very soft. The reason for changing was my wife got to the point she did not like sleeping on an "air mattress" and could not stay warm enough. It appears the newest versions have temperature control included, which was not an option when we bought. I believe the current bed was bought at mattress firm.

Highly recommend the 100% latex mattresses from the online store foam sweet foam. Super comfortable, good for the back/neck, but not inexpensive. A good mattress isn’t something to cut corners on, we spend about a third of our lives in bed. These mattress are heavy, require a platform bed frame, and don’t use a box spring underneath them. We love our bed so much we have an identical setup at both of our homes.

SleepNumber. We bought our C4 model maybe 10 years ago? With just the platform, no headboard or SleepIQ app or any of that extra stuff. Best bed we ever got, and it's showing zero signs of wearing. It's not just an air mattress. It's individual chambers, connected. And then surrounded by a thick couple inches of cushioning, with a thick cushion on top. And then there's another layer of cushioning and then the quilted mattress cover, and then finally the bottom sheet. Amazingly comfortable. Hubby likes his side at 70, I shift between 50 and 55 depending on how my hip and lower back are with each season change.

The mattress is so lightweight that it's SUPER easy to change the sheets and do proper hospital corners. It packs up into a box that's a bit on the big side for carrying around, but lightweight and will fit in the back of any SUV or minivan with plenty of room to spare. Takes an hour to set up from unpacking to getting the air setting to the 20 minimum.

You never have to flip it over. It will never start to dip in the middle. Because the inner part of the mattress is SUPER-thick vinyl, any accidents can be easily sponged right off, no staining or worry about lingering odors or bacteria buildup destroying fibers, which can be a problem with conventional mattresses.

If you are a cheapskate like me, then I recommend Big Lots in Leesburg. The store is dump, and they have limited selection. But if what you want is a Standard Sealy 17" thick posturpedic pillow top innerspring mattress, you can buy them there for 20% less than Costco. And you can lie on one.

If you instead want a Hybrid mattress, then Costco is the way to go. Best prices. But you have to buy it based on specs, because there are none available in the store to lie on. They do have a few innerspings sitting on the floor, but no Hybrids I don't believe.

If you want memory foam bed-in-a-box, then costco or amazon.

If you want a high end luxury mattress, I would have no idea where to go.

Denver Mattress. Order online and they will deliver. Consumer reports gives them a high rating.

As #7 poster said. NapLab.com has some good reviews. We just purchased Wink brand beds based off their reviews, and some 3 weeks into sleeping on them, have been totally satisfied.
I was looking for a store to ‘try’ them, but never made it. Someone has their mattresses to try in Tampa, according to the Wink website.
