Hi bcronan,
The comments I made in my last post would apply to this as well. You’re certainly welcome to make "reviews’ like these an important part of your personal value equation, but it’s not something that I advise, for the reasons I’ve previously listed. It’s one of the main reasons that this is not a “review” site, as what is focused upon here are objective facts to assist people when selecting a mattress, and why I don’t waste time attempting to interpret or infer the motives or validity of posters or posts, pro or con, seen on such sites. What I can confirm with absolute certainty is that the information you are referencing is completely unrepresentative of the service provided by Brooklyn Bedding.
The new BME uses very high-quality materials (it’s already been discussed quite a bit on the forum and you can see the new specs in the Simplified Choice Thread here), and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this product for consideration, but I wouldn’t be able to advise whether or not you would prefer the comfort of this, or any other, mattress.
