Hi roadrunnercj,
Congratulations on your new mattress as well 
I’m glad that they made an exception for you as well and that you were also able to receive the discount.
I’m looking forward to your comments and feedback once you’ve received it and have had the chance to try it out.
You can see my comments about the Consumer Reports mattress ratings and recommendations in post #2 here and in this topic. While they may be a good source of information about more “objective” purchases … as you can see I would consider them to be an unreliable source of information or guidance about purchasing a mattress and they are somewhat nonsensical and meaningless. My thoughts are also shared by most of the more knowledgeable people in the industry (see post #5 here for an example).
